“The teachers and staff are very helpful, even offering snacks. The activities are excellent and the value of the program is more than the tuition.”
Disliked
“Nothing in particular. The building used to be a church, so some people may feel the facilities are rather old. But I personally like it as it is traditional British architecture.”
Insider tip: “Nothing to complain about for serious students who want to study hard. In autumn, it may not be satisfying enough for those who want to enjoy the nightlife.”

Quality of teaching / language progress: Very satisfied!
Other comments The best and most cost-efficient school I have ever been to. I would honestly come back.
