At EC Cambridge, as well as our English Courses we love to give our students as much chance as possible to practice their English outside the classroom.  This also gives them a great chance to meet other students and learn about each others cultures.

We have two more pub nights in January so feel free to come and join us if you missed the last one!

So the time has come to say goodbye to another year at EC Cambridge. 2015 has flown by and I can’t believe it is Christmas again already. We want to wish all of our staff and students a very happy holiday season and a fantastic new year! See you in 2016 when our English classes resume!
