The school lived up to my expectations. This was my fourth time at EC English School and I would do it again. The teachers are able to inspire their students for the lessons and are very well trained. The classrooms are equipped with the latest technology. Learning here is simply fun.
Insider tip: This depends on the interests of the students. There are plenty of offers.
Review details
Quality of teaching / language progress: The composition of the classes with 30+ was ok.
Other comments For me, the composition of the classes was ok for standard lessons. There were also younger students in the intensive courses, but this was not a disadvantage.

... The size of the school alone allows every student to quickly make friends with other students. It is also ‘normal’ to speak English outside of lessons! Professional tour guide. Everyone very helpful. I think I will go again. :-)

Small classrooms. Sometimes more than 12 students in a class.
Insider tip: Use public transport. It's ok and can get you to any place of interest. Don't miss organised events, you can get easily acquainted with other students and you will have more opportunity to speak.

Our teacher Rob was very good, big praise!
Disliked
The language levels in the classes are too different. Lots of group work, which was far too loud. The teacher for the excursions wasn't prepared at all - she didn't know the tours, didn't have any material to give out, read up on... You could have done without it - I can read Wikipedia entries on my own. Far too many people in the small classes. It's difficult to learn pronunciation with 13 other students.
