The excursions were great, especially the one to Btah where we've visited the Jane Austin Center. We also enjoyed lessons and the cosiness of the 'Glazen Corner'. I want to go next year again!!!

Die Bewertung der Qualität des Unterrichts wäre besser ausgefallen, wenn nicht eine Vertretungslehrerin einen Teil Unterrichts übernommen hätte. Diese Lehrerin war nicht geeignet, Erwachsene zu unterrichten.

Della scuola mi sono piaciuti la maggior parte dei professori, disponibilissimi ad aiutarti,seguirti passo passo, non solo erano disponibili ad insegnarti la loro lingua, la loro cultura ma anche ad imparare la tua di cultura. I compagni di classe molto socievoli ed amichevoli.

Alcuni locali della scuola erano sporchi, come ad esempio il ristorante ed il bar.. a volte anche la sala lettura era sporca. Ho fatto notare questo alla scuola nel questionario che la scuola ti consegna alla fine del corso.

La familia: aunque estaba un poco alejada del centro, le doy la máxima puntuación por las atenciones y la simpatia de Janine, la propietaria. Volvería al mismo lugar.
La Escuela: Valoro negativamente que hagan devolver los libros durante los días festivos.
Aunque mi estancia fue corta por motivos laborales (dos semanas) he notado un importante progreso.

Hotel sucio, comida mala y el jefe del hotel no sabe controlar su mala leche. El jefe hace un trato distinto a los turcos que hay en el hotel que a nosotros, por ejemplo ellos pueden estar horas mirando la tv en el salon y el resto no, además el salón siempre está cerrado con llave. La conexión a internet es bastante mala. La cocina muy sucia y el aceite de la freidora no puede ser más negro.

La relación calidad precio es nefasta. El avance en los primeros niveles es lento y fatigoso. No existe una secuenciación de objetivos unánime entre los profesores.El estudio de tiempos verbales o la construcción de oraciones brillan por su ausencia. Desde la direccion no enfocan la enseñanza desde un punto de vista pragmatico, se imparte poquísima materia en cada sesion; y la poca que se imparte suele ser irrelevante para comunicarte en el dia a dia. Una escuela privada así en España (tan carisima y "prestigiosa") directamente no tendria alumnos.
