Lyons Languages is a small independent language school in Ely, just north of Cambridge in the east of England. We offer classes in English Language, Italian and Spanish, and English Study Holidays.

We have moved!

We have a new home! - we are now based at 41 Forehill, Ely (Basement Office). We have our own dedicated classroom, and we continue to offer part-time English and Italian tuition, both on-line and face-to-face. As ever, don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Directions: come through the gates at No. 41 and turn left at the rear of the building

and down the external stairs.

Parking available nearby.

In following government and industry COVID-19 guidance,

we have been awarded the

'We're good to go' symbol

Although no longer mandatory, we will be requesting all staff, students and visitors to voluntarily maintain the safety measures of face masks (unless participating in a lesson) and social distancing to help keep you, and us, as safe as possible.

Study holidays

Our Study Holidays are designed to build confidence by encouraging our students, both young and older, to speak with and listen to as many English people as possible while immersed in a truly authentic English environment. We are always happy to design an English course to suit your individual requirements.

Please note: Because of the ongoing restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are sadly unable to welcome international students in 2021.
