“The way to and from school on the beach was great. It's really beautiful.”
Insider tip: “I'm certainly a bad advisor on the matter.”
Details of the review
Other comments: If someone doesn't feel comfortable at the school, just let them out of the contract. In other schools, this is possible and it helps everyone. Money is important but not always. The school looks like it's in the 90s and is no longer up to date.

“Nothing”
Insider tip: “The school only has very young students between the ages of 20 and 25. Not suitable for educational leave. Classes don't start until 10:30 a.m. to 4:40 p.m. After that, hardly any activities are possible. These are also less than 30 hours intensive.”
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: School is not suitable for educational leave. School cannot adapt to this at all.Other comments: Extremely bad organization and unmotivated staff, especially at the front desk. Older students who had English in school many years ago are given a poor rating by the placement test and sit in a class with students who have never spoken English in their lives.School's reply:: Dear Nadia, Thank you for reviewing your stay with us. We are sad to see that you had such a bad experience and we wish you had spoken to us when you were here so we could have tried to solve the issues. We obviously want our students to have a great and unforgettable time in Cape Town and our school and try to find solutions when it is not the case.

International House (IH)

“IH Cape Town is often referred to as the IH family by many of our students as the atmosphere amongst them is so special and students make friends for life. During their time here they explore all the wonderful sights and join our fun social activities. I also enjoy interacting with them during our monthly student parties and meeting interesting people from all over the world. I am from the UK and visited Cape Town in 1995 as a tourist, fell in love with the country and never left again. 10 years ago we then opened this school in a superb location in Sea Point right by the sea which is definitely a great selling point for us. Our staff and teachers are very dedicated and hard-working and always try to find solutions to any problems that may arise. ”
