Social experience: The school is big on quality and dedicates its time to ensuring that students reach their full potential during their stay at Express English College. Along with excellent teaching methodology and in class facilities there are also social activities that students can join outside the classroom to practise their English. A lunch club, conversation club and film club are all in-house activities that students can join on a daily basis to meet like minded people. Trips are also organised within the school and are either free or for a small fee so that you can explore all that this wonderful northern city has to offer.

"Unfortunately, accommodation with Mrs. was quite a traumatic experience for me. Terrible atmosphere. I felt like an intruder in Mrs. house. There was often no breakfast. I bought my own bread and marmalade - and these were my breakfasts. Dinners were meatless (e.g. pasta + cheese or ... sandwiches), because Mrs. was a vegetarian. I could only use the designated plate. There was no daily, hour-long conversation. I honestly hate this house. Definitely an unfriendly place!

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.
Basil Havens verified client
The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.
Gabriele Ragger verified client
I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.

Your service was excellent, really following up and holding my hand.! My older step-brother used your service a few years ago to study Spanish in Salamanca and Granada and we found LanguageCourse.Net so helpful then as well.

Just keep up the good work. The organization is excellent, so that even less experienced travellers would feel ok to come to China. I also felt really good in the host family, they were really great!
