Positive aspects of school
"Nice and committed teachers. The lessons were mostly fun and never boring. The students were also in a good mood and did the tasks with commitment. Lots and lots of... oral partner exercises. No pressure to perform despite the test every Friday."
Negative aspects
"Clearly too few sanitary facilities for the mass of students."

"Beautiful city, nice people, but watch your mobile phones. They are often stolen and snatched from your hands."
Quality of teaching / language progress
"The first two units are "normal" lessons. The following two units are shorter and purely discussion-based."

Positive aspects of school
"We met a lot of other students of different nationalities, and we formed bonds that I'll never forget. The teachers are very good overall, they have different ways of teaching, each with their own learning style."
Negative aspects
"In 4 weeks I've had 5 teachers. I wish I'd had the same one. Because they all have their own way of teaching. Tight class for 13 pupils.
The 6€ per week for teaching materials I thought I was getting books but it's just maintenance of their materials (ex: touch screens, books) I only got photocopies of pages seen during the day."

City/place
"I'll be going back for a holiday and staying in a hotel. There are lots of things to see and do, and I discovered London, which is magnificent. After that it's expensive, so you have to have a budget. I would highly recommend"

"The lessons are interesting, and we have lots of discussions to help us make progress."
Accommodation
"Average room, shower blocked, I had to buy a product to unblock it otherwise it's a swimming pool. The shower head, which is fixed to the wall, was also blocked with limescale, I had to leave it to soak for 1/2 day in the limescale. Last week there was a water leak in the kitchen because of the rain. So when it dripped I had trouble sleeping properly. Otherwise, as far as transport is concerned, when it's rush hour in the evening it doesn't take 25 minutes, it takes much longer because the bus stops halfway and you have to walk to get there. That's every evening."

"Everybody was nice to me, the staff of the school and teachers were really qualified and prepared."
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
"Lessons for most of the time were not very involving, basically the lesson is concentrated on following the book and studying a lot of grammar. I didn’t find the lessons really involving despite the preparation of the teacher - who was really good. Sometimes the lessons became boring and too repetitive.
After 12 weeks I didn’t improve my English how I thought I would."
