HELC Students

Our Students

HELC is a truly international learning environment with students from all over the world.

Our students are learning English for a variety of different reasons. Many are learning English for their jobs, or to improve their job opportunities when they return home. Others are learning English because they want to use English when they travel round the world. Some students return to HELC because they enjoy it here so much, and almost everybody is sorry to leave.

Read some of our students' comments below. If you would like to contact someone from your country who has studied at HELC, please contact us and we will give you their e-mail address.

For me it was the best decision to visit Hastings. I really hated English before I came to HELC, but now I like the lanuage and the English people as well. I love to meet so many people from different countries and the best thing is I can understand them now. The only thing I can't recommend is to say goodbye to my new friends.

My first 14 day stage had really great inpact on my English. So 
I have decided to come back again for another 14 days in HELC. Highly professional teaching in small groups - it matches my expectations perfectly. I had come with an intention to learn the Language quickly as possible to be able to start my new job in England soon. Thanks to HELC I was succesfull.

Monika Pniewska-Caban - Poland

I joined to Business English Course for 2 weeks during my 8 weeks studying at HELC. Lessons were very interesting even though almost every one expected something different from business course with reference to current job. Every lesson had a different subject connected with marketing, negotiations, presentations, writing business letters, advertising etc. We did many exercises with groups like simulations of negotiations or presentations which helped students using theory in practise Having a lot of fun, students studied hard and made great progress. It was a great pleasure to study here.

 
 

Esther - Switzerland

I'm really impressed of the organisation of your school. During the morning you tested all the students, without chaos, in a good atmosphere. I've felt myself to be welcome. The groups are as small as promised and the teacher know to motivate the students. Our host family is very kind, we are both very spoilt.
A great compliment to your school!

Saha  - Turkey.

I'm Saha from Turkey. At HELC there are lots of things that I can say to you to be best for your study. Well educated teachers, enjoyable activities, afternoon options and having friends from everywhere. Your going to speak English all day and I bet that you will nearly forget your mother tongue. Also you can borrow books and videos. I've never had such an enjoyable and helpful holiday in my life. I am looking forward to coming back.

The Business Class in HELC has been quite successful for me because I have learned a lot of specific vocabulary which helps me in my job. In addition the teachers are very nice and they always help me explaining when I had problems with my homeworks.

Class was nice and respectable teacher. I attended Business Class during my last 2 weeks. It was a good time to learn, how to have a meeting, how to do Presentations etc. I really enjoyed it, Thank you

Sven Kleffmann, - Germany

After having joined the HELC for just two weeks I realised certain progress in my English abilities. Especially my grammar and knowledge concerning vocabularies improved. The Teachers are excellent and there's no point in complaining about anything. I can recommend the HELC and am sad to leave.

 
 

Aiman Abbas - Saudi Arabia

Before I came here I was worried about my choice of school. But fortunately my choice was absolutely right. I found what I was looking for in a school. 
Excellent teachers and good administrative staff. I recommend to students who are looking for a good english school.

Katarina Strelkova - Slovakia

I am Katarina from Slovakia. I am 35 I was afraid of the course wasn't suitable for people in my age before the course. But everything is OK my english is getting better every day. I have met a lot of friendly people in HELC.

 
 

Jacob Brandejs - Czech Republic

Studying English is very easy and funny here and you have an excellent opportunity to make new friends.

Kiyoshi Kato - Japan

I will recommend this course because the teachers are supportive and there are not too many students in the Class.

 
 

Dagmar Nied - Germany

Before I joined the Yoga class at HELC I thought yoga only as an activity for spiritists and other gurus. However, I tried it and changed my mind. In fact yoga is a brilliant exercise that is not as competitive at volleyball or table tennis. Furthermore, It is a good place to meet students from other classes, do something profitable for yourself and practise socialising at the common breakfast after the lesson.
So if you want to start the day with a real bang - loin the yoga class at HELC!
I am sure you will enjoy it as I did.

Yen Ni Li (Cathy) - Taiwan

This is not a language school it's more like a big family. I am very happy to stay here and meet a lot of good friends, excellent teachers, nice town, colourful lessons....... What are you waiting for ? Come on and enjoy life with us.

Helc has been a really good experience. It's easy to improve your english in this atmosphere where teachers are so enthusiastic and helpful and where you meet wonderful people from all around the world.

Jacques Morote - France

I always thought it is possible  to work seriously without take my self serious. It's the definition of HELC school, work and relax. HELC is not only very good training for Intensive English but also the fantastic opportunity to communicate with students come from all over the world, Japan, Korea, Argentina, Taiwan, Switzerland, etc - a fantastic human fulfilling you will never forget.
