About the Business
Our Motto: "Our thirst for quality drives ELA to provide excellence and innovation in teaching for students and staff alike. We invite you to study with us in the centre of historic Edinburgh, in the country where the English language originated..."

Edinburgh Language Academy delivers quality languages programmes in a beautiful Georgian building located in the centre of historic Edinburgh. ELA was established in 2006, and we have grown ever since to become one of the leading English language schools.

We are celebrating the 10th Anniversary this October and are very happy to offer everyone who books a course a 10% discount on tuition fees!

At Edinburgh Language Academy everybody matters - we find out exactly what students need and make sure we do everything to achieve that result. Students benefit from a personalised approach for every learner as well as close academic support from ELA’s team of progress focused professionals. Whether studying IELTS for post graduate degrees or taking a few vacation weeks to improve general English, all students enjoy ELA’s excellent social programme.

Students have many choices from lots of different tourist attractions. The school is also just a few minutes away from restaurants, bars and the nightlife this exciting city has to offer but students can also explore Scotland’s wonderful heritage sites and simply breathtaking landscapes.
