Choose our English classes for kids and teens, online or in our English schools. Let your child explore our world of English, developing English communication and core life skills. Your child will grow in confidence while learning the world’s global language.

As a teenager, get ready for your future while learning English and the skills you need to succeed.

Our qualified teachers will inspire you every step of the way.

The British Council English Online learning platform or hub can be accessed on desktop, laptops and tablets (when using landscape orientation), via the following operating systems and browsers (either Google Chrome version 73+ or Safari 12+ in combination with iOS 12 and above).

Students joining a live class will also need:  

  • a stable minimum 8Mbps internet connection  (we recommend an internet speed of 12Mbs or above)
  • a built-in or external microphone  
  • a built-in or external speaker  
  • a built-in or external webcam  

NOTE: The platform is not supported on mobile devices. 

Once you have registered with the British Council you will receive your access details. You then need to add your username and password into the log-in fields of our English Online learning platform.

If the access details do not work please click on “forgot password” on the log-in page. The system will send you a temporary password (to the email you used as ‘user’). When you receive the temporary password, you must click on the link in this email to reset the password. 

If you tried to log in several times, it is most likely that your account has been blocked. You need to for wait 15 minutes and then try to log in again. If that does not work, we advise you to reset your password.

Online 'live' lessons are more intense than face-to-face or presential lessons, and educational professionals do not recommend online lessons of more than 90 minutes. We have therefore restructured our learning content to fit an online delivery model; our lessons have been ‘flipped’. We have taken stages of the lesson that were without interaction and built these into our interactive Learning management System, leaving time in the ‘live’ lesson to focus on communication.

Please be aware that child protection and security of systems is of primary importance to us. We can ensure security and child protection standards are maintained through a two level system of entrance into the 'live' lesson.

Child Protection 

To ensure we maintain these high standards we continue to use our English Online platform as the logon for all our students, which creates the first level of security.    

The Zoom lobby function provides a second level of security: the teacher can check the names of all students before they enter the class. Further settings are in place to ensure additional security limiting recording of lessons, person to person chat, etc..
