Here at Tti , we do love our culture and in honour of Museum Week here in the UK , our staff have put together a list of some of our favourite places to peruse great art, creepy exhibitions and ancient treasures!

Our former student turned Intern, Maria , writes about her experience at the Flamenco Festival here in London .

Inspired by Matt’s Creative Writing Workshop. (Matt is a teacher at Tti who recently graduated with a Masters in Creative and Life Writing from Goldsmiths University .)

Hi there! This is Bego. I came to London to improve my English with a view to staying here for a couple of months and here I am after more than 2 years!

I was in a very old fashioned house in the centre of London. From an outside view it seems something special because around it there are only new buildings. We can imagine a house which doesn’t belong to this age: effectively I’m talking about Johnson’s house. You’re thinking who [is] this Mr. Johnson is: the Johnson’s surname is very common in England. Nevertheless, this Mr. Johnson is very famous: he was the first writer of a common English dictionary, called “A Dictionary of the English Language”.

Above all, I would like to tell you what made me come and study English in England and why I decided to come to Tti.  I had been dreaming of coming and living in foreign country since I was a little girl, like, nine-year-old.  Japan is an island country surrounded by ocean, as you know, so there is no opportunity to speak English and communicate to foreigners whatsoever.  So I was strongly feeling that I really need to go out of here and learn English.
