Positive aspects of school

Perfect location, everything was close by. The afternoon classes were great, a lot of conversation, the morning ones could have been organised in smaller groups and with emphasis on conversation, less grammar.

Negative aspects

No trips or outings. Everyone has to make their own arrangements, but the people at the school are very helpful and help if they can and know how to arrange something.

City/place

I would recommend it, it is worth a visit, a lot of interesting places to see, people are very friendly, helpful. Public transport is excellent, great bus connections, the buses are sometimes late, but this also has its charm. Safe

Insider tips about what future students should not miss

After getting off the plane, the transfer was just a taxi. It's ridiculously expensive for 50 €, so you should usually pick up a taxi.

City/place

The price of fast food is too high.

Accommodation

At first I used the school accommodation, but the price was too high.

I was there for 2 weeks. My teacher was Àngela who is fantastic, funny and helpful. The school was well organised. The only thing that they have to improve are the social activities in the afternoon because they only offer a grammatical lesson for 2 hours and go to dance Irish dancing.

Very competent teachers care about our progress with individual and weekly assessments of our level. Listening and speaking every day. Small classrooms, never more than 10 people.

Insider tips about what future students should not miss

In the afternoon, the additional free classes are fully recommended. You join the course at the beginning, middle or end of the textbook. If you like to drink beer, that's great, if not, you'll die of boredom in this town.

My teacher for her ability to express verbally and bodily, thus making herself understood by the students. And the secretarial staff for empathising and helping.

Other comments

I think that social activities should be worked and promoted more in class. Not only hang the weekly shift. I also think they should do activities in the school dedicated to encourage socialisation.

If you want to learn English even more and communicate daily in the language instead of having the multicultural and lively life of the apartment residence, you should prefer a host family as accommodation.
