Testimonials

Beverley M.
Kaplan International: English in Manchester

Kaplan was absolutely perfect for me! Of course I attended during special times (covid-19), but Kaplan was a safe place where I felt very comfortable. I was highly satisfied with my host family and the residential area was really nice (nearby park, quiet neighborhood, etc)

Doreen C.
BELS: English in Gozo

My language trip was a fantastic experience and I consider it a great success. The organization was excellent. The organization within the school was also excellent. The teachers were friendly and motivated. I had a personal connection with them. In my free time my wishes were always met.

Absolutely amazing, more than satisfactory from start to finish. I was able to walk everywhere, the locations were close to each other. Thank you, I was truly very content with my language stay.
