Student opinions about Concorde International, Canterbury

Liked
The teachers were all great. Although the level of my first class was too easy for me (similar to the high school level), the school didn't change my class at first. The school reallocated me to another class after my third request. It seems that I wasted my time during taking the unmatched class. The school should offer a level check test(progress test) more often.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss: I like that it is a very quiet school. I love the city as well.

I've done the junior course before and really enjoyed it, so I wanted to come back. This time too it was a really great experience. Thank you to all of the people that made this happen! I'll definitely come back for more English courses. They're situated in the centre of Canterbury, so after class you can go wander around and explore Canterbury.
Disliked
It would be handy to get a bit more information about the school and accessibility before the first day instead of on the first day. Because we had figured it out ourselves before getting the information bundle, so it wasn't that helpful anymore.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss: Try to do at least some of the activities organised by the school, it's a really good way to bond with your fellow students outside of the school building and it'll help improve your skill.

Other comments: A big problem regarding host family accomodation : I called the family the day before departure, and I discovered that she could not host me and that she had warned the school. Fortunately the person I contacted on the emergency number solved the pb. But it is a bad surprise the evening before departure. Especially as I was not as close to the school as before. Moreover the school's address was not good: I've discovered this upon arrival. The new family was very friendly and caring but the house was not clean

Everyone was friendly, welcoming and caring! Classes in the morning were very effective and professional.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss: Don't take classes in the afternoon if you want to see something in Canterbury and Kent. Everything is closed at 6 p.m.: museums, gardens, shops. So, if you just take morning classes and finish at 12.30, you can visit a lot! It's worth seeing beautiful coastal towns in Kent!
