The way to and from school on the beach was great. It's really beautiful.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
I'm certainly a bad advisor on the matter.
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.

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
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.
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.
Quality of teaching / language progress
School is not suitable for educational leave. School cannot adapt to this at all.

 

Response from school
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.
