Student Satisfaction Student’s happiness and learning goals are paramount to us! One of the things that I like about the school; the teachers, the teachers are friendly, they’ll always try to do their best to teach you and to help you with whatever you need, sometimes they become more friends rather than teachers.”  Santiago - Colombia   First Impressions Questionnaire Student Welfare officer Teacher student discussions Final questionnaire Testimonials Internet ratings – Google + Social Media 24 Hour emergency contact available 23 Permanent staff “I would like to say thank you for the amazing time I had in England. I enjoyed every day at school. The teachers were lovely and very helpful before, during and after the course lessons. My host family was very lovely. They took care of me and I felt very comfortable in their home. I can recommend Southbourne School of English; it is a place where I felt home and I always will definitely return to” Katharina - Germany “I like this School because it is quite modern; every class has heating or air conditioning.
