"Good experience in this school"

Konatsu Baba, student from Taiwan

There are group lesson and private lesson. These teachers are so friendly and flexible for classes. It’s good place to make friends from around the world.
But the accommodation was not good so I recommend to book the hotel by your own.

"Next time I will choose another school"

Donatas Paulauskas, student from Lithuania

1. Not all teachers at the school were native English speakers. More than half of them are local Filipino.
2. Native English teachers weren't professional teachers.
3. Eighty percent of students are from Asia (S. Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and China) it is not a bad thing but after school they speak with each other using Chinese or Korean language.
4. I would never go back to students residence in Boracay! It is near the loud street, next to the fence were crazy roosters, dogs and other animals - they were screaming from 4 am till 11 pm. Windows are leaky and not sound proof so noise from the street is directly heard in the room! The air conditioner works to loud and was only set in maximum - after 1 hour in a the room with a temperature of 16 Celsius - I got cold the very first night :(
5. The inner part of Boracay Island looks very poor, dirty and crowded. Ninety percent of the population is tourists and prices are 3 times higher than others places in the Philippines.

"Interesting"

Laura Locci, student from Italy

For me the school was very good, I didn't like the lunch though but the teachers are very good.
Regarding the dormitory it was a little expensive for me to stay in single room. Most people staying there are from Taiwan or Korea or China so they can talk with each other and I don't understand anything, I was the only European.
Sometimes you also have to wait for your turn to cook and the kitchen was not very new and with a lot of furniture. The WiFi in the dorm was very bad. In general it was a nice vacation in a nice place, I enjoyed making new friends and people were very kind.

"It was very fun to go to school because everyday I learned easily."

Pilar Salas Gonzalez

For me, Trevor is the best teacher! I knew nothing about English and with him, it was very easy to learn.

I don't remember the exact date, but I was there for four weeks from March to April. Today, I continue to study English.

Thank you for everything!

"Learning English in paradise"

Roland Herzog

I was very surprised with the high quality from the School. The classrooms are very simple, but the lessons are very effective. The teachers are very friendly and qualified and the students come from many different countries. The one-on-one lessons were especially very educational.

"First time to study in a professional school. It's a good experience."

jhou jhih yu(Danny)

Boracay is the most beautiful beach l've ever been to. The people who lived there were also friendly. I studied half-day so that every afternoon I could go to the beach - from my dormitory to station 1 or 2 on foot. I’m so disappointed that I could only stay for two weeks.

"Must return, I gained language, friendship and love the area and people."

Naif Alghamdi, student from Saudi Arabia

I have got a great course in very nice classes with very lovely teachers. The location is in its name, Paradise. The facilities made me feel that I am in resort. I enjoyed all activities especially because it includes sea trips. The housing made me live a family life. What I did not like is the day I am leaving that lovely place and people.
