Additional information
Positive aspects of school
Superb school, well organized courses and activities. Incredible team, the courses are well done, you learn a lot, you participate a lot orally in the courses, which makes you evolve very quickly and you get to know others and form bonds, which are very important when you're far from your family. I loved school.
Accommodation
Very cold room, the radiator comes on from time to time. They can come into the room when we're not there, I don't know why, and they don't even ask, or warn us when they're coming. Very far from the city center. The food is not good, small portions, no dessert. You can't eat with the host family, so you can't speak English with them. Bathroom used by 3/4 students, not cleaned by some, family doesn't organize schedules to clean bathroom. Animal in cage in the scullery, next to the microwave and refrigerators. Dog smell in the scullery, not pleasant when heating something in the microwave. On the plus side: it's great to have a key for each person to enter the house.
