The city of Brighton is on the south coast of the UK, on the English Channel, known internationally as the English Channel. The former fishing village has been a popular seaside resort since the mid-18th century. It is visited by English tourists and foreign travellers alike. In summer, the town's pebbly beaches are filled with sunbathers. There are plenty of trendy restaurants, shops for every taste, nightclubs and bars. No wonder the British themselves call Brighton the London of the sea. The distance from Brighton to London is about 80km. The comfortable train journey time is about 1 hour.
EC Brighton has spacious classrooms with interactive whiteboards. Students also have access to computer rooms and a self-study room. Students can relax in the student lounge. Students have free wireless internet access. A library is available. All students are taught in international groups. There is a maximum size of 15 study groups and an average of 13 students per group. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. Teaching materials are provided free of charge.
