Course: Intensive Course 15 (Vacation) - 1 week
Student age: 54 years
The teachers were highly motivated and well prepared.
The leisure program is unfortunately not available. I've heard from classmates that long-term students (1+ year) are offered shared trips. However, there were zero events during my stay.
Outside of your own class, unfortunately, there are no opportunities to get to know other classmates at the school, and there are no real common rooms. If you get one-to-one tuition because the booked course is not offered, you are left to fend for yourself after the end of the course. After a few days of one-to-one tuition, I was able to switch to a 15 lessons per week course plus a few individual lessons instead of the 24 lessons per week I had booked.
