lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the
darling buds of May, and summer's lease hath all too short a
date."
William Shakespeare, c.1600

time. Classes run both in the morning and in the afternoon, with general
English classes in the mornings and Global Leaders classes in the

A SNIPPET OF LIFE IN CAMBRIDGE
A Busker in the Bin!
This month's photo is of one of our more
famous street buskers, Charlie. We think
he plays the guitar and sings very well
indeed...but it seems that he thinks he is a
load of rubbish! What do you think? Click

performance!
Busker in the Bin
LET'S HEAR FROM THE STUDENTS!
What do you think of English food?
Hiro, aged 21, studying on our EFL-28 course and Kenta, aged 23, studying on our
Cambridge Examination 28-FCE course.
“We didn't know about English food because English food isn't famous in
Japan. Usually we can't find restaurant we can eat English food in Japan.
Also we thought we can't eat Japanese food in England since Japan is
too far from England so we thought Japanese food isn't famous in
European countries. Many Japanese people think English food isn't good.
However, after we came to England we were surprised! As we ate
English breakfast and fish & chips in some pubs. And actually, it was
delicious!! We can find some Japanese restaurants and some shops
which we can buy seasoning in Cambridge, although it is a little bit
expensive. But it is good and we can cook Japanese food in our house.”
