After so many years answering the phone, "Hello, Camden College of English...", we're all learning to say, "Hello, Language in London...".

I say the name of the school much more than I say my own name, so this is a big change!

I hope you like the new logo... when you visit the school you will see that we have painted speech bubbles in all the classrooms.

The new email addresses are now operating (....@languageinlondon.com), the brochure is nearly ready but we haven't made any progress with the website.

Lots to do (and when that's done, there's lots more).

But now it's time to think about the weekend (haircut, Chelsea v. Manchester City + lots and lots of Greta and Ben time!).

Have a good one.

Finished!!

It always takes me longer than I expect... and every year I say I'll start earlier. But I never learn...

I've just completed all the course descriptions, timetables, fees, accommodation details and general information for 2008. Pages and pages of information that I try to make as clear as possible. I produce one document to send to students and one for agents.

I can't believe that we offer over 20 different choices for English courses.

I've had a look at the design for the new brochure and I must say that it looks wonderful. I can't wait to get them printed.

No posts... lots happening...

It's been a very busy week or so and that's my only excuse for no new posts.

I've been desperately trying to finish the text for our new Language in London brochure. The aim has been to write something that everyone can understand and is an introduction to the school without saying everything. I'm meeting the designers this week and then it will be printing time. I had hoped to have the brochure completed a couple of months ago but timing is never my strong point.

We're also planning some great new things for 2008, which need publicity and promotion. This includes a summer course called "British Books and Films" (guess what that's about!) and extend our Cultural Experience course so that it is available all year.

I'm also working on a programme called "Best of Both Worlds" with a school in Devon. This would give our students the chance to have a course in the heart of the English countryside and the heart of London. Two hearts are better than one!

Oh.... and congratulations to South Africa on winning the Rugby World Cup. I think England did very well to get to the final but the better team won.
