“Location”
“The content and learning schedule is not specific or clear. The teaching continuity is not organized, and the study material is ineffective. The manager is absent in all situations, especially when students need help, highlighting deficiencies throughout the course.”
Insider tip: “Starting to learn a language in this school is not worth it.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Essential to start learning the language.
Other comments: Poor quality materials! The school shows no interest in making improvements or addressing the concerns of those who highlight administrative weaknesses.

“It is very close to the dormitory and there is a supermarket nearby, so it is not difficult to find it, and wherever you go, you easily take bus or taxi. Also important streets like downtown & rainbow is near.”
“Overall, I'm satisfied, but teachers were changed way too much therefore the teaching quality was not consistent and vary depending on the teachers. Because of this, it seems unprofessional.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: I hope teachers do not change too often and the content of the class will be a little more focused on a daily life.
Other comments: It was good to see that all the people in the academy, including the managers, were very kind, helpful, and always bright.

“Teachers are very friendly, and the coordinators in the office are always available for questions and suggestions.”
Insider tip: “Plan more days for things like Petra, Wadi Rum or Wadi Dana. Possibly organize it yourself. Jett drives to pretty much everything, including the border to Palestine/Israel (11 JOD to King Hussein Bridge and then by separate shuttle which costs 17 JOD per person including 1 luggage, 10 JOD when leaving the country!). You can eat pretty well almost everywhere in Amman. On weekdays you can have a relatively good and cheap lunch at school.”

Student reviews about Homestay - Only Female Students
Margriet
"There were no meals at the accommodation. We had assumed in advance that we would be in a host family.
Brechje
"We had an apartment at the language school. We have not stayed with a family. The apartment was big enough and clean. The apartment was very cold in the winter. There are two gas heaters, but they do not have to be on for long because of carbon monoxide. We have hardly been in the apartment because it was too cold and uncomfortable, we only slept there.
