Cardiff

As the capital and largest city in Wales, Cardiff has worldwide appeal. Visitors come for the nightlife, the culture, the events, the beautiful parks, the multi-cultural restaurants, top-class entertainment and quality shopping, as well as to study. The city centre is full of small, independent shops and pretty shopping arcades as well as famous British high street brands. Cardiff has a lot to offer but it is also more compact, friendlier and cheaper than many British cities. You can walk from the school to the city centre in a few minutes and public transport takes you everywhere. The people of Cardiff are famous for their warmth and the welcome they give to visitors. If you do get lost, there is usually a friendly passer-by who is happy to help! Cardiff Bay Cardiff Bay Why study in Wales? Wales is a country which forms a part of the union of countries known as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Wales is to the west of England, with the capital city, Cardiff, about 2 hours from the capital of England, London. Wales is a little bigger than Kuwait, about the same size as Slovenia and about half the size of Switzerland. The country is famous for its countryside with national parks, mountains, beaches, hills, valleys and forests. It has over 500 castles, local and national festivals that celebrate music, food, drink, art and literature. Studying English in Wales means you can see a different side of the UK. About 170,000 students study here every year, from over 150 different countries. So why not learn about two different countries at the same time? Come and visit us in beautiful Wales so we can say Croeso (Welcome!) to you.

Cardiff

Cardiff Storyteller and Singer Cath Little has “rough magic” in her voice, and in her words “the gift of the story comes through.” She has a strong belief in the power of stories to connect us to one another, to the land, and to the people who once lived here. She tells traditional stories from her Irish English heritage and her Welsh homeland. Cath enjoys re-imagining and retelling stories from The Mabinogion. Cath helps run the Cardiff Storytelling Circle and curates their seasonal concerts, Tales for the Turning Year. She tells and listens to stories at Oasis, a Cardiff Charity which offers a warm Welsh welcome to refugees and asylum seekers. Cath keeps busy sharing stories in schools, libraries, museums, castles, cafes and fields. She has performed at festivals across Britain and Ireland and is the author of Glamorgan Folk Tales for Children. My father told me stories and my mother read me them. The family was, and is, full of wonderful storytellers. When I started teaching English in London Secondary Schools it came naturally to me to tell stories: I told stories to help the children into poetry, into Shakespeare, into their own creative imaginations. When I taught English in Italy and in Egypt I found that stories take away the stress of learning another language and give a real reason for listening. When I became a Steiner Waldorf Early Years Teacher I learnt more about the power of stories to nurture and to heal. And then one day I met a professional storyteller! Then I knew that’s what I had to be. Since then I’ve been on the path, following my bliss, and have worked as a professional storyteller since 2006.
