"A great experience for those who want to have it for more than 4 weeks."

Mariangela Meyer, student from Switzerland

I liked: - teachers - administrative staff - administrative staff attitude I did not like: - the time I spent was too short and I had not the chance to change the group I work with (my level was higher and some of the lessons were boring for me)

"Not enough teatcher a class are full"

Simona Gitu, student from Romania

After 5 weeks in EC school Cambridge, I think there are very good think for a students but it miss very other. I think a teacher are fine and they try to do them best, but a classes are very full, and unfortunatly a rooms are very small. I think EC cambridge should have more teatchers. I can to give you an exemple, I want to have a one to one classes and I paid , but in my first week I didn't have this one to one classes because there weren't enough teachers, it not serious, and anybody give me informations about what I paid and about what I lost ??? for that I try to find a solution. I live in a Hills road residence, I had some problems in the first week ""a shower doesn't work in my singleroom!!"" but fortunatelly a people of the school find a solution and I could take my shower all days. But seriously , I try before EC another school , and I think a quality of the lessons and a residence are better in EC. Thank you Salima

"short but nice learning experience. "

Enar García Aguilar, student from Spain

Overall, was a nice learning experience, but because I had only a week for my classes, and this week was part of a 3 months program, I felt that the classes were not customized to my needs. I really enjoyed the classes with John Walker and Simon ...(sorry, but I don't remember the last name).

"It was an experience I will never forget"

oberrauch sophia, student from Austria

The classes were very good, especially the ones that we did speaking, that I learned a lot. The teachers were very nice and friendly with us. The location for me was horrible because I was with a family that lives in the other side of the city, in Trumpington so, everyday I had a lot of problems to get to the school. The activities were also very good I had a lot of fun. The housefamily was fantastic! (but it was not boked by the school)

"organized chaotically, but overall a good experience and fun"

Andreaa Hrinca, student from Romania

the size of class was good, two teachers were ok, one was horrible, teachers weren´t organized (should make a test but cd for listening wasn´t found; copies weren´t made...), what I learnd, I didn´t learn at school but being together with new friends after school. the housing was ok, but I was booked to another family and 4 students just were to many in one tiny house. I wanted to stay in a english family to get in contact with the english way of life, but my host family wasn´t english at all. It was o.k. but I don´t think that I can recommend it to friends.
