Language and Study Skills

LGE is committed in supporting students with their English language skills and study skills to enhance a students learning experience and to prepare students for university study.

In order to support students we do this through:-

Mode of Delivery: Teachers are expected to use a variety of modes of teaching, from teacher-led, student based, flipped teaching, as examples, to ensure there is diversity within the student`s educational learning.

Language of Assessment: This is an English based course programme, therefore all teaching materials, syllabus and all aspects of assessment will be in English.

The English Skills module provides students with the opportunity to develop their English skills not only to a competent level but to academic standards. You'll be introduced to academic reading and effective note-taking strategies. You'll develop your essay writing. You'll look at academic style and vocabulary-building strategies. You'll also enhance your understanding of sentence structure and punctuation. You will learn through a range of engaging activities aimed at extending your existing language skills.

The Research Skills module creates the bases of academic writing, research, analysing and critical thinking and builds confidence in your speaking for presentations and academic discussions. It also helps you to develop good studying skills with time management and planning and learn the best ways to take notes.

Personal Development Plan: Every student on an LGE course or programme will have a Personal Development Plan. This plan will look at the student`s strengths and weaknesses and work on building skills and attributes, with the student, as they map out their career inspiration, direction and ways for them to steer for attainment and successfully achieving their aims and goals.

Accommodation

At London Global Education our role is to guide students in selecting the right accommodation. Our support team will help navigate students through the options available for their location of studying.

At LGE we provide a clear overview of the main types of student accommodation and by/through these options it helps us to suggest possibilities to students in finding the best fit for their budget, lifestyle, and priorities. There are two types of categories for student accommodation; University/College Halls of Residence (Dorms) or Private Accommodation.

University/College Halls of Residence (Dorms)

University Halls of Residence

Types: Usually corridors or flats/apartments with shared kitchens and common areas.

Rooms can be single (standard), ensuite (private shower/toilet), or occasionally shared.

Pros: Convenient (on/near campus), strong social atmosphere (easy to meet people), bills usually

included, university support, furnished.

Cons: Can be more expensive than private renting, often less privacy, shared facilities, meal plans

(if offered) add cost, limited choice/lottery systems.

Private Accommodation

Private Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA):

Types: Modern buildings designed specifically for students. Offers similar room types to halls

(standard, ensuite, studios) but often with more amenities (gyms, cinemas, common rooms,

cafes). Cluster flats (several ensuite rooms sharing a kitchen) are very common.

Pros: Often high-quality facilities and amenities, bills included, furnished, good security, strong social

scene, located near campuses/cities.

Cons: Usually the most expensive option, contracts can be strict, potentially less independence than

private renting, can feel less personal than uni halls.

Private Rented Accommodation (Houses/Flats):

Types: Renting an entire house or a room (usually shared with other students - an "HMO" or House in

Multiple Occupation), a flat/apartment, or a studio. Can be found solo or in groups.

Pros: More independence and privacy, wider choice of location and property types, potentially

cheaper than PBSA/Premium Halls (especially sharing a house), experience managing a

household.

Cons: Bills usually not included (extra cost/responsibility), finding housemates/properties takes effort,

dealing with landlords/agencies, deposits/fees, furnishing may be required, responsibility for

maintenance/issues, potential isolation if not sharing.

Home-stay/Living with a Host Family

Types: Renting a room in a local family's home. Often includes some meals.

environment, bills/meals often included, furnished.

Cons: Less independence/privacy than other options, need to fit in with family routines and rules,

potentially less interaction with other students, location may be inconvenient.

Key Considerations When Choosing

Location: Proximity to campus, transport links, shops.

Cost: Rent, bills, deposits, food, travel. Budget carefully!

Social Preference: Do you want a bustling environment or peace and quiet?

Independence Level: How much responsibility do you want for bills, cooking, cleaning?

Facilities & Amenities: Ensuite, Gym, Laundry, Parking, Canteen

Contract Length: Typically 40-52 weeks for purpose-built options; often 6-12 months for private rentals.

It is important to note that in some universities or locations not all of these types of accommodation will be available.

London Global Education recognises that health and well-being (physical, mental, and emotional wellness) are fundamental to a student`s success. London Global Education understand that navigating academic life can sometimes be challenging and everyone experiences periods where they could use support.

Cultural Integration

Cultural integration is an ongoing journey we undertake together. It requires empathy, open-mindedness and a willingness to step outside our comfort zones. By embracing this journey, we not only enrich our own experiences but also build a stronger, more connected, and truly global and cultural awareness.

At London Global Education we believe that true learning extends far beyond the classroom, and cultural integration is key to building a welcoming, dynamic, and supportive academic community where everyone feels they belong.

Your unique experiences, traditions, and viewpoints are essential to who you are. London Global Education and Universities invite you to actively participate in creating a campus environment where:

Understanding grows, Friendships cross boundaries and Everyone feels valued.

Approach your experience with genuine openness, curiosity, and respect. Actively seek to understand the local customs, traditions, values, and communication styles of your host community. Reflect on your own cultural background and perspectives, recognizing that meaningful integration involves both learning and sharing. Engage respectfully with local people, participate thoughtfully in community life, and be willing to adapt your behavior and expectations. Navigate cultural differences with patience, humility and a willingness to learn from misunderstandings. By committing to this process of mindful integration, you will not only enrich your academic experience but also develop invaluable intercultural competencies, build meaningful global connections and contribute positively to fostering mutual understanding.
