"Nice staff and people, but I came at the wrong moment."

Judith Brun, student from UK

My first week of class were taught by Jane and very focused on the IELTS skills. However, after that week her parental leave started, so Kenny took over, also a very skilled IELTS teacher. Unfortunately, he had a holiday planned already, so the last two days I had yet another teacher, who also had little knowledge of the skills needed for the IELTS. I still had a good time in class and learned a lot, but the second week was not as much on point as the first.

"I really liked the atmosphere of the school, everyone was very friendly and helpful."

MARIA EIRINI ASPOUGALI, student from Greece

I studied at Live Language only for 4 weeks and it was a great experience. There was a small number of students in every class (8-12 students) and the teachers were really helpful and tried to do their best for my preparation for the IELTS exam. I had the opportunity to enjoy some of the facilities and the activities that the school organized for the students and I met a lot of people from around the world. I made some good friends and I spent a lot of time with them. Also, people from the Liberty Park helped me a lot with my room and they answered me all the questions I had about the accommodation. It was a great experience and I would like to do that again.

"It was a very satisfactory experience and I learned even more than what I expected."

Ángela Mayoral Mamolar, student from Spain

From my personal experience, I liked a lot the way of teaching and taking the classes. Besides, we put into practice all the theory we were studying, and it was a very good fact.

The relationship between students is amazing and specificly in my class, the teacher was very close to the students, in order to provide us the enough confidence in the classes to talk about almost everything. The activities in class were very instructive as well as educational, and we all enjoyed with most of it.

Also, the location was nice because it had a lot of tourist destination near the school.

I did not hired the housing, so I do not really know about it.

I do not really have a negative fact to say about it. In my experience everything was quite good, although the course in general is a little bit expensive.

"Better than I expected"

Claudia Marinho Virtanen, student from Finland

I liked the teachers in general and the IELTs preparation teacher in particular. Individual tutorial was important for realizing the weaknesses and strengths, and understand how best to develop. The school is very organized. It is also well localized in relation to services.

The housing was very nice. Good location, few minutes from a beautiful park and next to a train station. But the best thing was hospitable and friendly landlady, who prepared excellent food. The accommodation was recently refurnished, clean and comfortable.

One notable thing is that the school has a specific person who informs about interesting activities and events in the Glasgow region and around, such as visiting the Highlands.

I expected to receive an assessment of my current level in English language.

"It was one my best experiences in my life."

Ildiko Maria Bene

I liked the small classes, because we had time and opportunity to speak in English and the teacher could help me personally. It was great to know new people from all over the world. I loved that I could choose the social program if I had time. These activities were the best opportunity to make friends and to use our English. I also liked that the school was nearby to the Kelvingrove Park and the Sukiehall Street, too.

Just one thing that was a bit strange - the school had two buildings. It was not disturbing but it was unusual for me.

Ask a question

"I have a prospective student from Switzerland who is looking for Online/Skype English lessons. She has to pass a B2 level test but does not have the time to travel to attend classes. Could you let me know if any of the EF schools in the US or Europe can offer such and send me some more information about it together with the pricing?"

I am regretted to inform you that we don’t have any distances courses. The only modality available will be classroom.

"I have 2 prospective students from Venezuela who would like to study at International House: Dublin. The students are ready to book soon, but I have several questions for you regarding this booking. Can you get back to me on these by Monday?. The students are from Venezuela, and as you may know they have to pay his course through CADIVI. Do you offer a medical insurance that could be included in the invoice sent to CADIVI?"

Yes we can offer medical insurance to these students. Insurance is provided by a local insurance company here in Dublin . Generally Venezuelan students book the Academic Year Program which is 25 weeks of tuition and 25 weeks holidays. Can you just confirm that the students would be booking 50 weeks of tuition? This is quite unusual. I can confirm that we have availability in a studio twin room in Charleston Road in April.

"I'm contacting you again due to these 2 students. They are a bit worried about the invoice for CADIVI as they would like that the housing is included in the price of the course without breakdown (like: course + housing), because they say that CADIVI is getting strict with approving the payment of housing. Could you prepare the CADIVI invoice this way?"

There is no problem in preparing the CADIVI invoice in this way.
