I really liked the school.
All the staff are very polite, I felt at home.
My suggestion is for teachers to provide feedback on student difficulties. Most students do not work in Northern Ireland, I think that establishing a student development plan during this period of the course would be interesting, I mean for example, where the student wants to go and what exactly he needs and work with development tests , to find out if at the end of the course he achieved this goal.

Most of the students were from Spain and Italy. During free time they only spoke in their own language. It would be better if the students would be from different locations.
