“The staff, they all make you feel at home, you leave there with a small family.”
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: I couldn't be happier with my course at OHC. The administration girls are charming and will help you in whatever you want always with a smile. The teachers are the best, Leon, Angie and Erika teach you English in a fun and very practical way, they know their work well and I couldn't have wished for better teachers. I have been there for two months and my English has improved remarkably, I leave being able to carry on a conversation when I was not able to articulate a whole sentence. Very happy with them and I highly recommend studying at this school with these teachers.
