I liked the teaching process and they paid attention to your level and got the best teacher for your language skills to be developed
Disliked
I wouldn't say I liked that the air conditioner was set too cold and easily could caught a cold. The organisation of the first day was chaos. We filled out everything before, but due to one more language oral assessment, we waited the whole morning for the level of us and our own group.

Quality of teaching / language progress: The inaccuracy in the selection of the level of participants in the group meant that for the first two weeks I was in a group that was too weak linguistically and it was difficult for me to make progress. After the change (due to the low level of the group, there were also few activities to practice communication, linguistic interaction), the group was much better on a higher level. Pair and group work allowed for language progression. The teachers were different and were also differently involved in the lessons. Rachel was great.
