Nice activities, small groups, friendly teachers, diverse students from many countries.
Quality of teaching / language progress
Good combination, surfing before lessons worked well, but the days were then also full.
Accommodation
Relatively expensive, perhaps a host family where food is included or a hostel would be better.

I thought the combination of lessons in the morning and excursions in the afternoon was great. The activities were very varied and well organised. Everyone who works at the school is super nice, you always have someone to talk to and I felt very comfortable. I also really enjoyed the lessons. It was a good mix of grammar and speaking.
City/place
Very big city with lots of hustle and bustle. I particularly enjoyed living in Miraflores.

Very friendly and dedicated to my well-being and professional team!
Water, tea and coffee are always available. There is also a kitchen. Interesting and fun excursions or delicious meals together are offered several times a week in the afternoon.
Super uncomplicated re-booking of lessons to the next week.
I highly recommend this school! Thanks!

City/place
Chaotic bus traffic, as many providers operate the transport network. It is annoying that horns are honked day and night. Also the honking of taxi drivers hoping for a ride with the gringos. Cabify is a great app for ordering a taxi, and it's great that the price for the ride is included. So you don't feel ripped off. Unfortunately, there are few cultural events in Lima. The tourism centres are not staffed or only have a lot of brochures from a few providers. No real incoming tourism.

The teachers were really good and super friendly! I benefited a lot due to their openness and the after class activities with them. They would always stay longer after class if you have any questions.
City/place
The city is huge and travelling from one place to the other takes a long time due to the absence of an overall public transportation system. But this is what makes Lima an interesting and adventurous choice which I can totally recommend to anyone who loves to explore new places.
Accommodation
Homestay, no meals
Great homestay. The family was fun and took good care! I felt at home from the very first moment on.

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
The homework assigned was essential, students should plan on keeping up with work outside the class. It is not busy work but needed targeted practice.
City/place
I love Lima and have visited and will continue to visit this city in the future.
Quality of teaching / language progress
Private lessons were intense but pushed me forward in language acquisition.
