Live Language provides fun but focused English Language tuition for Group, Private and Corporate customers in the vibrant city of Glasgow, Scotland. Our class sizes are smaller than many schools, which means that our students receive more attention and we can be more flexible to their needs. We offer General English, Academic English (for access to University and College Courses), Business English, IELTS Preparation classes and we have recently introduced a new FCE course for students. Your learning can be as part of a Private or Group class – or both if you want to focus on a particular area.

It hosts the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, the Scottish Opera and Scottish Ballet not to mention its numerous theatres and concert venues. It is only 40 minutes from the capital – Edinburgh and 30 minutes from the start of the stunning Highlands. You therefore have the best of both the city and the remote highlands within easy access. Glasgow is well known for the warmth and hospitality of local people and it is this that makes Glasgow ‘the friendliest city in Scotland’.

We are a proud, independent organisation specialising in the provision of unique, all-inclusive programmes for groups of learners at secondary school age. We do not run adult courses. Everything we do is geared towards the junior market - our impressive building & facilities go beyond expectations. Our attention to detail and meticulous planning ensure that ALL of our students have wonderful experiences. We hold strong beliefs about the service we provide and guarantee top quality and unbeatable standards in all areas. Don't give students an average experience, give them an unforgettable life experience - The Mackenzie Experience. Student Capacity: 102 (in any one session) Classrooms: 9 School Buildings: 1 Address: 6 Johns's Place EH6 7EP, Edinburgh Scotland Web site: www.mackenzieschool.com Telephone: +44 0131 555 5315   + School Location With its stunning Georgian and Victorian architecture, and winding medieval streets, it’s easy to see why Edinburgh has been listed as a World Heritage Site. The Castle dominates the skyline, perched atop the crags of an ancient volcano right in the centre of the city and both the Old Town and the New town are packed full of historical and cultural character. Yet Edinburgh is not stuck in the past. In fact, the city is among the most vibrant, cosmopolitan cities in Europe and is regularly voted as one of the most desirable places to live in the world. The capital is bustling with arts, culture, sports and attractions and is famous for playing host to the world’s largest arts festival, which takes place in August. There’s plenty of open space too, with a large number of public parks and green areas right in the busy city centre. This is a city that knows how to be both ancient and modern. Our school is located in vibrant Leith, only 1.5 miles from the historic Old Town and a 3 minute walk from The Shore. Leith was famous for many things, mainly the industry connected with the docks which sadly underwent severe decline in the post-second world war period and continued until the 1980s. Since then however, Leith has undergone significant regeneration and is now a busy port with visits from cruise liners and the home of the Royal Yacht Britannia, Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre, and administrative offices for several departments of the Scottish Government. The council and government's 'Leith Project' provided a further economic boost. The shore area of Leith once renowned for its working men’s pubs and factories now hosts luxury apartments, trendy pubs, and cafes & restaurants set in charming surroundings. There is a real community feeling among the people of Leith and we believe that in Edinburgh, it really is the 'place to be'! Our school is set in a Victorian tenement building that looks out on to the Leith Links park, where the very first game of golf was played. Many people believe that golf was first played at St Andrews but it was actually in Leith.   + Courses - General English - Content and Language Integrated Learning - Culture & Activity Programme   + Accommodation - Host Family - 5 Star Youth Hostel   + Practical information Transfer: Airport transfers from/to Edinburgh Airport are included in our net fees but we can provide costs for other airports on request. What happens on the first day of school: On the first day at school all students sit a placement test to determine their level (unless this has been agreed or set beforehand). After the test, one of the Directors conducts an in-depth induction which is presented on our large cinema screen. The induction covers important information about the students' stay. After this the students have a break before going into their first class. Usually, on the first afternoon, all students take part in our interactive 'Get to Know Edinburgh' activity before going home for dinner. In the evening we usually have welcome parties which inlcude disco music, games and Karaoke. Activities: We offer a wide range of options from leisure activities such as Scottish dancing or cinema evenings and local cultural visits such as Edinburgh Castle or Rosslyn Chapel to whole-day excursions such as a trip to the historic town of Stirling and the Wallace Monument. One thing to bear in mind is that a historic visit to Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument is never just that with Mackenzie School – we always have extras, as mentioned above, ‘to keep you on your toes’! The list of what we can do really is endless but we are sure that within that, there is something to suit everyone. How to get to the school the first day: Generally, our hosts accompany students on their first day to school to make sure they know the way. Subsequently, students either walk or take the bus depending on where their host lives but for evening activities, we provide taxis to take the students home. This way they don't have to take buses or go walking when it's dark. Visa information: We can assist students with obtaining their visas if required. What is included?: Our prices are always inclusive of the following services unless otherwise requested: -Arrival and departure transfers (from/to Edinburgh airport) -Full-board, shared room home-stay accommodation -20 lessons per week of general English in classes of a maximum 12 students in each -Wholesome packed Lunches made in school Mon - Fri -Intensive social programme of daily activities, evening activities and half-day & full-day excursions -Taxis home after evening activities -Bus passes for the duration -Welcome packs -Report & certificate on completion -Use of all school facilities -1 free group leader per every 12 students   + Accreditation Local accreditations: British Council International accreditations: n/a   + Downloads Please download files to view them on your computer.
