Andre: "Very nice staff (teacher and secretary) but old classrooms with very simple uncomfortable chairs. No pictures on the walls etc. One toilet and one behind a parking garage for all students. The ambient could be a lot nicer even without spending much money. "

What students liked about Blue Cotton Schools, Mexico City
24 years
“There were students from all over the world, which made lunch conversations very interesting. The teachers are also willing to spend time with the students outside of class, which makes for a good dive into local culture and is good for practicing the language.”
