| Ana Maria (56 years - 27.Sep.2011) Smaller groups; also the classroom was tiny por 13-14 people.
The social activities weren´t interested; it could be better to organise go to the theatre or visit some interested place near Colchester after 5, when school, museums and shops were closed.. | |
| Laura (16 years - 11.Sep.2011) About the school i like the facilities and the teachers all of them are very firendly. The adaptor and one umbrella. | |
| Natercia (44 years - 26.Jul.2011) Quality of teaching. | |
| Erich (59 years - 8.Nov.2010) The combination of reading, speeking, listening and writing in Englisch.
All that combinations of activities in the school, in the host family and in the afternoon-activities.. | |
