We are pleased to announce that Marek Kiczkowiak will be closing the English UK Business and Specialist English Conference on  Saturday 9 June at International House, London.

This year's conference proved a roaring success, as delegates enjoyed a full statistical briefing from our insight partners, were engaged in productive workshops and networking sessions. All at our wonderful new venue overlooking Tower Bridge.

English UK has secured Tradeshow Access Programme (TAP) funding for 15 educators to attend the ICEF Berlin Workshop from 4-6 November 2018.

Every English UK member centre is being encouraged to join a campaign to highlight the value of ELT to the country.

English UK's student statistics data shows that student weeks increased by five per cent and student numbers rose 14 per cent to 497,028, despite the number of member centres dropping by 13.

This year's Annual Student Statistics Report, to be launched at our annual conference this Thursday, will be the most comprehensive ever.

We spoke to Seth Rutrakool, Managing Director of Thai agency GENT. He shares his tips for recruiting Thai students, and talks about the challenges and opportunities in the market. GENT is an English UK partner agency and a member of TIECA.
