A unique opportunity
The English UK Fairs are organised by English UK, the world's leading language teaching association, in partnership with the British Council, UK Trade & Investment and VisitBritain.
The success and popularity of these events is based on their unique small size and friendly atmosphere. The programme of social occasions and one-to-one appointments, all in a relaxed, luxury setting, give educators and agents the opportunity to get to know each other and develop long-lasting productive partnerships.
The English UK Fairs are the only agents' workshops focused exclusively on the UK's English language teaching sector, each targeting a different world region for student recruitment.

“A brilliant fair and a great introduction to a new market for us. Well done English UK!”
“A great event. I really like this type of boutique fair. I met one agent five times during the event and we had the chance to get to know each other. You don't manage that at a big fair.”
