Student profile
Abdullah Alhutaylah
Certificate of English - Standard
"Stafford House School of English is not too big, in fact it’s just the right size for me. I get lots of attention from the tutors and I get to interact with the classes. If I was in a larger school I do not think my English would be improving so quickly!
I love the social side of the School of English, the activities we do really involve me in the culture. My friends who are studying at other English schools get jealous when I tell them about the activities I do here!"

"I started teaching English in 1991 and joined Stafford House in 2001. I love meeting people from all over the world and seeing how they get on together. It is my hope they go home with a better understanding and view of different cultures, and of course of ours. I feel my role is to be like an Ambassador in my own country!"
