What we like about the school
  • The famous San Diego Zoo, the Symphony Hall and San Diego Bay are all within easy walking distance.
  • Free assistance in applying to college/university programmes by a qualified consultant.

Location: LSI in San Diego is located in the Bunkers Hills, an uptown part of the city. It is close to Balboa Park, which has a number of golf courses, museums and gardens. Little Italy is the neighbourhood next to Bunkers Hill. This is a pedestrian area, with small boutiques, music venues and cocktail bars. The centre of the city is a 13-minute walk from the school building.

Public transportation: The Santa Fe Depot Train Station is 20 minutes from the school. Students can catch the Pacific Surfliner from the station and travel along the coast of San Diego. There is a central tram system that runs around the GasLamp district and south, along the coast. The closest tram stop from the school is 13 minutes by foot. The silver, orange and silver lines both run through this station.

Main attractions: The attractions in San Diego are spread out throughout the city. Aside from the Balboa Park, the closest attractions, such as the USS Midway Museum are navigable by public transportation from the centre of the city. The things to do further afield, including the Cabrillo National Monument and La Jolla Cove, are easier to reach by car.

*Course structure: The school has general English courses, exam preparation courses in a range of popular English exams, private lessons, mini groups, afternoon classes, a pathway programme and Academic English. Business English courses teach students how to use specific English language used in the business environment, and LSI offers this as a course for students.

School facilities: The school has a student lounge, roof deck and a selection of computers that students can use for self-study. It also has a fridge and microwave for those that want to stay for the lunch break.

Chain school: As a group, Language Studies International (LSI) has schools located in 7 countries throughout the world. These countries include France, the USA, England, New Zealand, Switzerland and Canada.

For over 55 years, LSI has been supplying tuition to adults, juniors and teachers. Their schools are accredited internationally by such accreditors as EAQUALS, Accet, the British Council, English New Zealand, Languages Canada, and more.

“The school is equipped with spacious classrooms, air-conditioning, an equipped kitchen, a large room for rest during breaks. I liked the organisation of the educational process, the principal Mai was pleasant on the first day, gave us a tour of the school and a briefing, we felt at home.”
“I didn't quite like the location of the school - there were a lot of homeless people nearby every day, my daughter was afraid of them.”
Insider tip: “Take courses of 4 weeks or more.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Good course, professional teacher, if something is not clear - he explains several times, friendly to all students, classes are interesting, free textbooks and stationery available.
Other comments: Wonderful school, professional staff, helpful with any questions.

“- all teachers and the headmistress were very, very nice and competent and were able to enthuse the children for the lessons
- the teaching methods were interactive, varied and modern
- the children were encouraged to speak English in a playful way
- the school is very centrally located directly on the No.5 freeway with parking spaces right outside the door
- the rooms are spacious and modern with WIFI, lounges and a small kitchen”
“- the rooms were too air-conditioned, you had to come in long clothing even if it was 25 degrees outside (but this is apparently normal in the USA)
- a bit more homework would have been good for personal progress
- some other course participants did not take the rules seriously (were massively late every day, were very fixated on their phones, often got up and went out to buy snacks), which often disrupted the lessons. The teachers could be a bit stricter here.”
Insider tip: “San Diego Zoo”
Quality of teaching / language progress: The age range was a little too wide, many very young children with little knowledge of the language.
Other comments: We had to fill in and sign lots of useless forms on arrival. Too much bureaucracy. We had already filled everything in online beforehand.

“The number of students is ideal with the institute size.”
Other comments: Generally, the institute is good and in a unique location in downtown San Diego. However, the following would make it even better: Increase of facilities such as toilets. Create an open room or space for students to gather outside the institute instead of blocking the walkway(s).

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.
