ECS Scotland is an independent British Council accredited English language training centre founded in Edinburgh in 1995 by Jane McKinlay and Ian McPhail. Jane's daughters help her with the day-to-day running of the school. Laura and Flora take care of bookings, administration, social programme and generally helping the clients with getting to know Edinburgh.
Even in the era of globalisation, big companies and cheap services, ECS Scotland continues to maintain its original ethos of small group learning and reasonably priced, good quality teaching.
Our approach
Learning and teaching in the school is led by the Principal, Jane McKinlay, who has a long career in teaching English as a Foreign Language both in the UK and abroad. Jane believes that small groups are the key to learning English effectively as it provides each student in the group with ample opportunity to practice and communicate.
In addition to small groups, daily practice outside the classroom is essential. Jane makes sure that coffee breaks are taken together every morning as this provides an extra opportunity to speak English with other students and teachers in an informal social environment.
The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is the world’s most popular English language test for studying in higher education. It is recognised by many educational institutions, employers, and government immigration agencies as proof of your ability to communicate in English.
Our IELTS preparation classes are suitable for beginners, intermediate and advanced learners. We will test your level at the beginning and at the end of the course.
The focus is on the development of skills and techniques you need to perform well in the Test by helping familiarise you with various test formats and test-taking strategies. You will practice different task types through a variety of activities, games and tutorials.
Our preparation courses for the academic IELTS (International English Language Testing System) exam or the advanced TOLES (Test of Legal English Skills) exam will help you get your best possible result.
This course is for students who need IELTS exam preparation and want to study at a University and need to prove their level of English with an IELTS score, usually of 6 or higher.
