The best way to book your language course!
The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.
The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.
I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.
You're just great, doing a fantastic job. I'll be back in a couple of weeks and be booking my next stay abroad with you again (as always).
I was really surprised with your assistance to me, the service was amazing, following me on every step, thank you!
The service received has been fantastic. All doubts and issues were solved quickly and effectively. An exceptional service.
Your service was excellent . You helped me to choose exactly the right course for me .
I had excellent support with the school choice and booking. I was grateful knowing that if a problem arose, I had someone to liaise with the school and sort it out. Many thanks
Your service was excellent, really following up and holding my hand.! My older step-brother used your service a few years ago to study Spanish in Salamanca and Granada and we found LanguageCourse.Net so helpful then as well.
I genuinely rate the enrolment service five stars as it exceeded my expectations - everything that was booked worked out flawlessly, and queries were responded to with minimal delay. Ana Carolina was great - thanks!
Everything was perfect. Fast and efficient help. Kindness and support from start to finish. Thanks a lot!
Excellent support. In particular, Ana Carolina is amazing and goes out of her way to help. I have called upon Ana in the past and will do so in the future. I am genuinely grateful. Thank you Ana!
Sabine was FANTASTIC! Very complete communication all along the process!
Ana Carolina dos Santos was amazing. Always kind and available, she solved all my doubts.
Sawsan was amazing throughout the booking process. Was extremely helpful and attentive and professional.
Just keep up the good work. The organization is excellent, so that even less experienced travellers would feel ok to come to China. I also felt really good in the host family, they were really great!
