What our students said about Bogota

My own fault but I did not realize it was rainy season, so there wasn't as much walking around as I'd hoped (although I did manage 6 km one day alone!). I felt pretty safe walking around, people were nice. I didn't tackle the bus system. If I could walk I did, otherwise I would grab an occasional uber, which made life easy. I wish I had more time to spend in museums, neighbourhoods, outside of the city. I guess this just means I have to come back. :)

It's an interesting city because of its very welcoming and cheerful people. Life is cheap but of little historical interest to me

Nueva Lengua

No idea. In the end I only had 3 days of lessons. Because of a holiday the lessons were crammed into 4 days which means 5 hours of lessons in a row. I couldn't handle that. That's way too much and other students complained about that.

The teachers are very competent and nice
The course material should as a notebook rather than lose piece of paper.

All the teaching, the dynamism of the other students
Keep this age group to maintain a good level, because with the younger players it's less dynamic.

That you feel like one big group of friends within the school
Maybe it would be a great addition if the school could provide a kind of 'basic' course for backpackers/travellers, which they can use during their backpacktour!
