London is the most exciting capital city in the world!  And Muswell Hill, the home of Excel English, is one of the most attractive and fashionable parts of London.

Muswell Hill is very popular.  It is situated on a hill in the north part of London with wonderful views right across the centre. The area is residential with many large family houses and it has the atmosphere of a village even though it is part of a great city.

Although Muswell Hill is one of the safest places to live in London, it is also known for its lively nightlife with many cafes, bars, pubs and restaurants as well as a cinema and two nightclubs. You will also find interesting places to shop and sports centres where you can keep fit. If you want to practice your religion, there are many places of worship in Muswell Hill or nearby.

Muswell Hill is also very relaxing because it is a very 'green' part of London with many parks and open spaces, including Alexandra Park and Queen's Woods.

The area has an interesting history. The first television broadcasts in the world were made from Alexandra Palace and famous past residents of Muswell Hill include the singer Rod Stewart and Ray Davies of the 70's pop group The Kinks. The area is still very popular with actors and entertainers and other people in the media.

You will also find it very easy to get from Muswell Hill to the centre of London as the area is in zone 3 of the London transport system and there are many buses and several underground stations to choose from.

We are known for the standards of our teaching, social activities and student care.  We are accredited by the British Council, founder members of English UK and a member of Quality English, which represents a group of carefully chosen English language schools.

These courses are intended for overseas teachers of English who want to improve their mastery of the English language, discover new methodology, and refresh their teaching skills.
Each two week course offers 24 hours input per week, combining language enhancement and teaching methodology. Participants also take part in organised cultural activities.
The course is suitable for teachers specialising in teenage and adult students. Teachers should have at least an Upper Intermediate level of English.

Accommodation

All our accommodation is either within walking distance of the school or a maximum of 25 minutes travel by bus. We offer different types of accommodation depending on the time of year.

Homestay
If you choose homestay accommodation you will stay in a private home with friendly English speaking hosts. This is our most popular type of accommodation because it is a way to experience British culture and practise your English while living in a comfortable home. All the homestays are carefully selected and regularly inspected. When you book your accommodation we will try to place you in a homestay which meets your requirements as closely as possible.

Residential
July-August
We can offer standard residential accommodation with meals, year round. The excellent residence we use is located only a short walk from the school. There are 125 single rooms, all decorated to a high standard, and many shared facilities such as sitting rooms, a games room, a gym, a cafeteria and a very large garden.

The residence is suitable for independent students who want somewhere lively to live with the opportunity to mix with international friends their own age. However, this type of accommodation is very popular so you need to book early in order to get a room.

Residential accommodation without meals is also available
