The English summer courses in London, England offered by Dixon Formación are designed for young people aged from 10 to 18 years old.

-
Return: 26th July 2009
Transport: Regular flight from Valencia (Spain) to
London (England).
Accommodation: One of the key points of our English summer courses in London, England is the accommodation we provide with local families, enabling students to practice the
language skills they learn in class. It is for this reason that we have chosen this formula instead of providing accommodation in residential centres in which the students tend to employ their own
language more than English. Naturally, over the course of several years Dixon Formación has developed a relationship of trust with the host families.
Meals: During the week, our students are provided with breakfast and dinner by their host families. Given that most foreign students are usually not too keen on typical
English packed lunches, lunch is provided each day in the school's restaurant. On Wednesdays and Saturdays, however, students are provided with picnics to enjoy during their scheduled excursions. On Sundays, lunch is provided by the host families.
Insurance: Our English summer courses in London, England include insurance coverage against accidents and illness. Additionally, all students have free access to a local General Practitioner.
