“Excellent organisation and teachers.”
“An expensive textbook for only two weeks.”
Insider tip: “Enrol in the activities to socialize.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Good teachers. Maybe more varied methodology.
Other comments: It's a good centre.
Luz Maria

3.0
“The staff and teachers were nice, and the school is modern and comfortable.”
“I was expecting a course addressed to teachers up to C2 level, not C1 and another type of methodology, not centered on the book and IELTS preparation which I was not taking, but more fun and challenging.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: It's addressed to students who are preparing for the IELTS. I was expecting more about the course as well as the teacher Training. There's not a lot I can bring back to my lessons as a teacher.
Inmaculada

“FacilitieS, staff”
“The methodology employed, too traditional and the obligation of paying for the book for short stays.”
Aitor

3.0
“Well located and correct facilities.”
“The country is expensive, but the value for money is not adequate. It was 20 hours a week but it was not worth what I paid, many changes of teachers, loss of time in class, and the quality of teaching dropped. But it's not a bad school.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Lots of downtime in class, and that's money.
Other comments: There was no level test upon arrival. They are based on a test that you do at home and in the emails from LanguageCourse.Net it stated that a level test is done at the school to be placed in the right level, which is what you pay for. They also do not give you a student card and in the emails they indicate that they do.

Aitor
"Very poor kitchen equipment. There was only one broken plastic fork, everything was dirty, sometimes there was no hot water, the washing machines did not work well and are expensive, and the reception staff had very little support.
