Everyone was friendly, welcoming and caring! Classes in the morning were very effective and professional.
Collin, the Director of the school, gave us a very interesting tour to Folkenstone! We enjoyed listening to fascinating stories about kings' and dukes' lives and some history about the beautiful houses.

5 September 2017
Course: General English 25 - 3 weeks
Student age: 21 years
The teachers were all great. Although the level of my first class was too easy for me (similar to the high school level), the school didn't change my class at first. The school reallocated me to another class after my third request. It seems that I wasted my time during taking the unmatched class. The school should offer a level check test(progress test) more often.

Everything in general
The accommodation was awful. The family was never with them. The left the key under a plan for a 10-year old and a 13-year old to use. The day I picked them up, the were all alone and they came with me. But they could have left with someone else. The food was awful and not enough. I am very happy with the school but, regarding the house, I hope they take into account what I am saying since my kids don't ever want to stay with a family and this is not the first family my daughter stayed with.

Course: Junior: Canterbury Study Centre - 1 week
Student age: 10 years
small group (10 students), no French in my group, mix of nationalities, 1:1 lessons with Paula were very profitable and made me progress a lot
A big problem regarding host family accomodation : I called the family the day before departure, and I discovered that she could not host me and that she had warned the school. Fortunately the person I contacted on the emergency number solved the pb. But it is a bad surprise the evening before departure. Especially as I was not as close to the school as before. Moreover the school's address was not good: I've discovered this upon arrival. The new family was very friendly and caring but the house was not clean
