Edinburgh International Film Festival


The EIFF is back!! Moving from August to June last year proved to be a complete success. If you are a movie-buff you can avoid all the August rush with its multiple festivals and the thousands of tourists. The EIFF is one of the most famous film festivals in the world. Come and be the first to watch some of the most amazing new talents or have the privilege to see an old classic on the big screen. The Film Festival runs a series of interviews with important names in the film industry, come and see them in person! We can guarantee it's one of the most amazing experiences in the world. Just listen to your idols and ask them whichever question you always wanted to ask them! Some highlights this year include such classic figures as Roger Corman, famous for adapting some of Poe's stories, and some new geniuses as Darren Aronofsky, director of Pi, Requiem for a Dream or The Wrestler. You'll regret it if you miss them! The EIFF runs from the 17th to the 28th of June and is yet another excellent excuse to come to Edinburgh!

Play on Words - English Theatre Course

Play on Words, our English theatre course, is starting again on Wednesday 22nd of April. It doesn't matter if you don't want to be an actor, just come and improve your pronunciation and diction and have fun at the same time! Takind a theatre course is such a fantastic opportunity to increase your self confidence, so why not improve your English in the same course, too!

Last term was a complete success, people left the room absolutely happy and content, all excited and looking forward to rehearsing the parts they had been given.

As everybody has been so happy with the course, we have decided to do it again.
The course runs every Wednesday from 19:13 to 21:15, and the next block of 4 weeks will start, as we have already said, on the 22nd of April.

Also, if you are not 100% sure, you can always come and pay just for one week and, if you don't like it, you don't need to pay for the rest. But, to be honest, everyone likes it!!

Please come to the school or phone/email us if you want to enrol in the course.

IELTS Preparation Course

IELTS is the International English Language Testing System. It measures ability to communicate in English across all four language skills – listening, reading, writing and speaking – for people who intend to study or work where English is the language of communication.

More than 6,000 education institutions, faculties, government agencies and professional organisations around the world recognise IELTS scores as a trusted and valid indicator of ability to communicate in English.

Over 1,000,000 people a year are now using IELTS to open doors throughout the English-speaking world and beyond. The test is taken every year across 120 countries, and is one of the fastest growing English language tests in the world, and sets the standard in integrity, research and innovation.

That's why at inlingua Edinburgh we have decided to add an IELTS preparation course to our existing Cambridge examination courses (FCE, CAE and CPE). So, if you are interested, come and joing our group. The course runs every Monday and Wednesday evenings, from 18.30 to 20.00.

inlingua Edinburgh will be a Fringe Festival venue again this year...

For the fourth year running, inlingua Edinburgh will be a Venue again during the Fringe Festival 2009.

We are delighted to announce the return of two long-standing artists/ performers, Nick Pynn and Paul Webster.

Nick Pynn is an outstanding musician who has won the Spirit of the Fringe Award and whose CD ''Afterplanesman'' was awarded amongst the 100 top CDs of 2008 by the Times! Come and join him for an evening of fantastic and highly original music in the Red Room by candle light and lose yourself in his melodies, rhythms and stories – all accompanied by his own devised musical instruments as well as classic guitar, violin and the cocolele! Nick Pynn consistently and regularly gets 4 and 5* reviews.

Paul Webster is a truly remarkable actor who portrays Adolf Hitler in his final hour in the bunker. Paul's performance is very powerful and gives us insight into this notorious, dangerous dictator and it is hard to believe it is Paul who sits in front of us! ''Hitler Alone'' has been reviewed every year as an extraordinary 4* show – for those who wish to have an audience with Adolf.
