Social Events
At Speak Up, we organize a lot of social activities. This way you can socialize not only with your classmates but with all our students. Here a couple of examples of social events that we host.
We run regular local tours and treasure hunts, giving you the opportunity to work in a team, improve your communication skills and explore London.
Pub & Restaurant Nights
What’s more British than an English pub? Join your teachers and classmates at our favourite pubs, try some of the best British dishes and beers, and have fun! Over 18s only.
Food Tasting Nights
Come and join us for a food tasting night. Bring a home-cooked dish and try new flavours from other parts of the world. And most importantly – find out that British food is actually amazing!
Annual Picnics
Every year, we organise a picnic in the world-famous Hyde Park for all our staff and students to enjoy the British summertime (yes, it does exist!).
Brunch Club
Fancy a break? Join our brunch club for a coffee, a croissant, and chat about an important issue with your classmates and teacher. Meet new people in a relaxed atmosphere.
Parties
Who doesn’t like to dance? We’re always up for a fancy dress party at the school or one of the best local clubs.
Online Social Activities
Join us for our weekly Zoom drinks, Free Speaking and Pronunciation Class, as well as occasional pub-style quizzes and other events.
* Please note that during the COVID-19 pandemic, we run a slightly different version of our social programme in order to follow the government rules and keep all our staff and students safe.
