School location

A Prime Location in Scotland's Vibrant Capital of Culture

Live Language is perfectly positioned at 20 Buchanan Street, right in the historical heart of Glasgow city centre. Our school occupies a stunning listed building featuring beautiful Charles Rennie Mackintosh architectural elements, placing you at the epicentre of Glasgow's famous "Style Mile" – one of the UK's most exciting shopping and cultural districts.

Step outside our doors and you'll find yourself surrounded by an incredible array of cafés, restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues. We're located directly above Nike, near Zara, and opposite Frasers, with the iconic Sloans restaurant just moments away. Whether you fancy a quick coffee between classes or want to explore Glasgow's renowned food scene, everything is right on your doorstep.

Scotland's Biggest City, The World's Friendliest

Glasgow isn't just Scotland's largest city – it's been voted the world's friendliest city time and time again. This reputation isn't just talk; it's something you'll experience from the moment you arrive. Glaswegians are famous for their warmth, humour, and genuine willingness to help. Scotland's people are renowned worldwide for their hospitality, and nowhere embodies this spirit more than Glasgow.

As a student at Live Language, you'll quickly discover why our city feels less like a bustling metropolis and more like a welcoming community. The friendly "patter" (local chat), the helpful strangers, and the inclusive atmosphere make Glasgow the perfect place to practice your English and feel truly at home.

Getting to Glasgow couldn't be easier. The city is served by three international airports:

Glasgow International Airport – Scotland's busiest airport with connections across Europe and beyond

Glasgow Prestwick Airport – offering budget-friendly flights and excellent transport links

Once you're here, our central Buchanan Street location means you're brilliantly connected to everything Glasgow offers. We're just steps from:
