Other comments The diversity of students and thefacility is good. The teachers and staff are very friendly & professional. The host family is also really good. It will be better if breakfast contains eggs.
School's reply: Hi Weixi, thank you for your support! We are very happy that you thought our Go Create! English course was fantastic. It is our goal to bring out talent and creativity of our students while studying with us. It was our pleasure to have you this summer. We hope to see you again next Summer!

School's reply: Hi Alice, Thank you for rating Harrow, London, 5* in your review. Being based in a leafy, traditional suburb but at the same time close to Central London our students studying here really get the best of both locations! We are also happy that you thought the teaching in your Go Create! lessons was very good. We do believe that our unique course and well trained teachers really make the difference. We typically have over 1000 students studying with us during our summer school, so there is a dynamic atmosphere with plenty happening! Where was the confusion about what you were expecting and what you experienced? Do feel free to drop us an email if there is a particular area that you think can be improved or clarified. We would be happy to hear from you. Thank you!

Other comments WE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE WITH RESPONSIBLITY IN THE SCHOOL.
School's reply: We're sorry that you have scored your week of study at our summer school quite low in this review. You were one of the strongest students in the class, and to challenge you further, you were working closely with our English Language teaching assistant on many occasions in addition to doing the class activities arranged for your international mix class by our highly qualified teachers. With this level of attention, it is a shame that you did not explain to us what it is that could have improved your experience while you were in the school. After your initial feedback re the breakfast, we spoke to your host and made sure she was very happy to provide extra food for you, hence served multiple portions of cereal and toast with ham

Questions and answers about KKCL

  • I can recommend the General English programme with 15 lessons per week. Content is regularly updated to include the needs of each individual student. Every lesson uses a range of resource books, workbooks, audio, video, and web materials. The school does not believe in limiting students to one set of materials, so you will not have to buy a particular coursebook. All materials are included in the course fees.
