What our students said about Kiev

5.0

Rating: 5/5

I absolutely loved Kyiv. Everybody was really friendly and really easy to talk to. I didn't go shopping, so I can't really comment on that. As for public transport: everything is quite easy to reach by metro, but it's quite crowded (even though I was told that it's even worse outside the holiday period). There are loads of Uber drivers in Kyiv 24/7 though, so that's always an option as well (and still relatively cheap)!

Kiev is not a particularly beautiful city, but has improved greatly through the years, and does offer many things to see and do.

As a matter of principle, I live in Kiev and this means that my assessment is not neutral.

Echo Eastern Europe

Simple, friendly atmosphere and good professors.
It's a great discount option for those seeking language study who are already familiar with the region. Not sure I would recommend it to a first time traveller, but worth the money compared to other schools.

Mikhail was very friendly and accommodating. We were advised on time about changes to schedule. The private lessons provided by the other teacher (Tatania) were very helpful and effective.
