Liked
Wonderful college nestled in the English countryside with excellent facilities and thoughtful and plentiful catering. The student services department was always ready to accommodate our every request, from cleaning a room to an extra pillow. The center director was always attentive to our needs and handled staff and emergencies excellently. The teachers are native speakers and were able to engage the children in the lessons. The curriculum aims at communication rather than written form to help develop their ability to express themselves.
Disliked
Organizing activities and excursions requires a little more planning. Also, it would be best to have at least one admission included to one of the local attractions. In London the cruise was included but in Brighton there was really nothing. Also, the staff should provide some guidance or trivia about the destination, otherwise it just becomes a walk and shop at any location! The afternoon activities some times are a bit thin on content and end too quickly. The group of students I accomodated participated in everything enthusiastically, but let's say that from a professional point of view, they could have been carried out in a more polished manner. This center cannot accommodate large numbers, otherwise the spaces become too small. The second week they tripled the number of attendees, and I saw the staff a little bit in trouble
Insider tip: It is a very isolated place, with Wi-Fi but no phone reception

Other comments I was here last year and I can confirm a great improvement in my opinion, the fact that you added rice and chicken to the canteen menu. Last year it was always chips and hamburgers, at least this year I ate better.
