EC 30+ London

Today is my last day here. I'm very sad. But I have good news: last week I did a test for a higher level and I passed it. I was so happy but at the same time I was very sad, because my class was the best class and my teachers Ayan and Jess are the best teachers.

All people here are very very friendly. I will miss all.

It was the best experience in my life. Maybe, I will be back next year.

Best regards

The language school was very professional, safe and took care of its students 24/7. Highly recommendable.

My experience was incredibly positive in all aspects, especially in terms of my English studies and the teachers were of a high standard both academically and personally.

The truth is that we liked everything: the school, the residence and the city.

It was an excellent experience.

My experience in London was amazing! I loved the school, it´s truly very good! I really liked their style of the teaching, the teachers and the dynamic. I learnt a lot in two months and I managed to move up a level after a number of weeks. I am very pleased with my progress.

I liked the residence: very comfortable and close by. I had no major problems.

Many thanks for everything, the options you gave me really were good.

Our trip was amazing, the city of London is very impressive and we enjoyed exploring all the famous sights.

The course was excellent. The teaching methods were completely different to those in Chile, as the classes were interactive and so you had to stay focused. They gave us our text books and suggested sections that would help to improve our vocabulary and we did many exercises. The teachers were very enthusiastic and some of them were really motivating.

The location is very good and suitable for studying, everything was coordinated including supporting activities and extra-curricular fun activities (e.g. we went out for a typical English tea and on day trips to Windsor, Stonehenge and Salisbury). Every Monday, we were sent a calendar with our schedule, teachers and extra activities for the week.

We would definitely recommend it. It was a wonderful experience. We went back to being students, which was a big challenge and all of our friends would like to have this type of experience too... Even though we are a bit older!!

Your organization was very good and we were very well-informed, we are very satisfied and happy. We would also like to go back!!

Best wishes,

My experience was amazing!!! Definitely EC 30+ is a good school. Teachers put the best of themselves to teach us. The only thing that I would change is that not always the class size is only 12. Some weeks we were 13 and 14, and this is not good to learn and for the price that we pay.

I got to know people from countries that I never imagined! I made friends from Taiwan, Lithuania and Belarus (also other countries in Europe). London is an amazing city. It offers all that you can imagine. My homestay was very lovely. Jasmine took care of me every time.

And the most important is that I've improved my English! Not fluently, but now I can speak and understand better! Now the grammar has sense in my mind, and I can connect better the grammar in my mind and my tongue when I speak. I need more accuracy now. I started in pre-intermediate level (I changed to intermediate level 3 weeks after I started the course) and at the end I was ready to go to higher-intermediate (result of the final test). So, nearly 4 levels in a short time. It means that the method of the school is very good and that I studied a lot.

Thank you for your support and I recommend this school.

This trip was really great!

The host family:
I lived with Ivette, the owner of the house, and a young students, Bradley, who was in his last year of school. They were both very friendly and interested in my studies. At dinner we talked about various different things. At the beginning it was difficult because I didn’t have much vocabulary and couldn’t speak fluently, but over time conversation became more natural and I could make myself understood better.
The school was relatively close to the house, around 50 minutes away. I had the option to take a combination of a train and the underground or just to take a bus. In terms of the food, I normally ate my lunch at school. There they offered various meals and you could pick whatever you liked as in the end you paid by weight. The prices were reasonable.

EC:
I liked it!!! Excellent teachers, all very friendly, and a great teaching method that was very dynamic and interactive. There were up to 12 students in the course, all from different countries. The atmosphere was very good, we all had the same goal to learn, whether it was for our careers, a personal goal to improve our English or, in a few cases, because of a love of travelling and a desire to use the language better. In terms of the classes, they were incredibly interactive; I could not lose my focus for a moment as it might have meant missing out on an explanation or instructions for one of the various speaking exercises that they asked us to do in groups of 2, 3, 4 or 6 people. During these exercises we needed to pay attention to each student in the group because normally the teacher asked us for our opinions on the other students in our group.

The course was good, not amazing, but it fulfilled my expectations. I'm glad I chose 30+ because it's really important that your fellow students are really interested in learning.

In summary, it was a fantastic experience; I hope that I can repeat it again one day in the not too distant future.

Best wishes,

Rodrigo
