Description
We are WE Bridge Academy – a professional English language school located in the very heart of Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom. Our premises can be found inside South Gate House – an executive business building that overlooks the centre of Cardiff and is a five-minute walk from Cardiff Central railway station.
Our friendly team are passionate about delivering exceptional standards of education and encouraging the very best from our students in a professional learning environment. Our spacious classrooms are equipped with modern technology. We offer tea and coffee making facilities, a spacious student lounge, free Wi-Fi and a multi-faith prayer room and washing facilities.
In 2018 we took over additional space within Southgate House to create new offices and four brand new classrooms. Floor 10 boasts a ‘quiet room’ for our students where they can relax or work on those all-important assignments without being disturbed.
Our genuine and friendly approach to teaching is what makes us different. We have a real passion to see everyone that studies with us succeed and anyone aged 16 and over is welcome to join us.
