It has been my belief that the quality of classroom teaching will always be the best indicator of any successful English Language school. The priority relationship must be the one between student and teacher. It is our commitment at P.I.C.E. to make sure that this relationship is the prime focus for us all. Whether learning language skills for further study at University, Business College or High School, or learning English to help further a career by passing an exam, or simply learning language for travel and new experiences, student achievement is our vital concern. Combining the expert skills of our teachers with the friendly helpfulness of our counselling and administration staff, students can be confident that they will experience personalised attention second to none. At P.I.C.E., we clearly understand that the quality of our staff reflects our reputation. As Director, it is my commitment to you to provide the very best of facilities, the very best homestays, and the very best supportive learning environment for students. I truly look forward to welcoming you to P.I.C.E., and invite you to an experience of a lifetime.
