Speakeasy School of English is a small family-run language school located in Chiswick, a lovely part of West London near the river Thames. We opened in 2002 and since then have taught English to over a thousand foreign students from all over the world. As a small school we pride ourselves in providing individual attention and support to students. Our reception door is always open, allowing you to come and speak to us about anything you need during your stay in the UK!
We specialise in teaching with the Callan Method, a unique, dynamic and fun way to learn English. We are members of English UK and are accredited by the British Council and the Callan Method Organisation (CMO). We are open all day Monday to Friday, allowing you to study in the morning, in the afternoon, or even after work in the evening. Whether you need help with your pronunciation, or you need to pass a particular exam, come and try our classes and you won’t be disappointed.
Our website gives up-to-date information on the courses available at Speakeasy School of English, and on the other services we offer to students. If you want to ask us a question, please email, call or pop in to see us and we will be happy to help.
We look forward to seeing you very soon!
