Positive aspects of school

"Modern. International. Easily accessible. Supermarket, café and bakery in the immediate vicinity."

Negative aspects

"1. there was no textbook during my 2 week course (and even if there was, not worth it for 2 weeks), so only photocopies. 2. now my very personal opinion, teacher dependent: Beginners. Within the first few lessons, the teachers try to get the students to speak at an academic level, but with all the grammar. This only leads to frustration, regardless of whether you can keep up or not. Secondly, also very personal, I felt discriminated against by the teacher's very personal indiscreet questions and remarks."

City/place

"Great city. Enchanting. Unfortunately not too well connected in Andalusia."

Quality of teaching / language progress

"Too much. I did it because it is necessary for the Bildungsuurlab."

Accommodation

"The studio on the top floor was probably the best in the whole house. (The window to the shaft was the highest compared to the lower floors, almost in the fresh air). Unfortunately the whole house was too humid, all my clothes were constantly damp, I often had to dry them with a hairdryer. Positive: great terrace, washing machines and lines to dry on the terrace."

Positive aspects of school

"Some teachers try to compensate at least partially for the disadvantages resulting from the poor organisation of the school through personal commitment."

Negative aspects

"The lessons are taught frontally. The opportunities that arise from small classes (there were two of us!) are not used ... Furthermore, Clic is very poorly organised. As a result, he has to improvise constantly, which is usually done in a very shirt-sleeved and short-sighted way. Clic's demeanour is arrogant. Not recommendable."

"The accommodation was great and the staff were excellent and very helpful in providing anything we needed. The only issue would be that the beds are very squeaky when you move in them and not super-comfortable. But I guess they're fine for a week, I was there for three weeks so I noticed this more."

Negative aspects

"- Language test (no evaluation of the writing test with regard to the mistakes made, rather exotic questions such as "Moroccan" in Spanish. I found the online interview for beginners not very informative).
- the learning pace in my group was quite slow. After consulting with the teacher, I was able to change classes."

Negative aspects

"Too small classroom: (Nr 6). Too hot and bad air quality. The AC was not effective. Very much noise from the street. Impossible to acknowledge talk with the windows open. A bit too short lunchtime. Should have been 30 minutes, not 20. There should have been a water dispenser. We should have gotten a weekly schedule, so one could prepare before the classes."

"The lessons were boring, teaching methods hardly ever varied, "learn vocabulary at home" (why do I pay money???), the subject matter was repeated too little and the lesson was not well prepared: easy grammar took too long (e.g. time of the clock), difficult grammar too short! Surroundings: too much noise, unpleasant odors from outside, uncomfortable, no opportunities to meet with students of other classes."
