LSI Brighton

LSI Brighton occupies a purpose-built campus at 55-61 Portland Road in the Hove district of Brighton, a short walk from the seafront. The school combines its teaching centre and its own residence, Portland 55, on a single site, so en-suite student rooms sit alongside the classrooms. Fourteen modern classrooms host adult learners aged sixteen and over, with an average class size of eleven and a maximum of sixteen. Students share a large private garden used for social activities and summer barbecues, alongside a lounge, kitchen, ping pong table and free Wi-Fi.

The academic programme centres on general English taught across six levels from beginner to advanced. General 20 delivers twenty lessons each week covering grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, speaking, listening, reading and writing. Intensive 24 and Intensive 30 add further lessons, with the thirty-lesson option introducing elective classes in the afternoons. Afternoon 10 suits students wanting a lighter timetable focused on fluency and everyday language.

Examination preparation is offered through IELTS and TOEFL courses built into the Intensive 30 format, plus dedicated Cambridge English B2 First and C1 Advanced programmes of thirty lessons weekly. Academic English 30, Academic Term Abroad and Academic Year Abroad support longer study periods and university pathways, and the school provides university application assistance. A weekly social programme, job clubs and study clubs complement classroom teaching.
