Parents

"Looking back on my daughter's journey with ECG, we are truly grateful for everything you have done for her. You have been there for her every step of the way, offering not only invaluable guidance but also the kindest and most genuine support. Whenever she or our family needed help, you were always there, providing both professional expertise and the warmest encouragement. You have stood by her, helping her navigate every challenge with confidence.

Her success in securing her Cambridge offer would not have been possible without the unwavering support of the entire ECG team. Your dedication, patience, and belief in her have made all the difference, ensuring that every critical step in her journey was met with the right guidance and care. We truly cannot thank you enough for everything you have done."

Students

"I am so grateful to have stayed with such an incredible host. My host is a really kind person who has taken care of me and taught me a lot of things such as English table manners!
 
Staying with a host has given me a chance to meet new people - which has improved my language a lot and given me different experiences which I wouldn't have at school."

Student from China at Cobham Hall School

"At my half term homestay - besides doing homework - I do all sorts of activities like puzzles, playing board games and cooking. I’m really looking forward to my next homestay!"

Student at Windlesham House School

"When staying with my host family I really enjoyed meeting new people. Meeting different people in my life has shaped my view of the world as being so colourful - although we have different ways of thinking and different cultures, we all grow by learning from each other.
 
I must say homestay was a very memorable time in my first term study."
