La ville comme le séjour se sont très bien déroulé! L'école est petite mais très bien, grâce à cela à peu près tout le monde se connait! La situation est idéal et lieux est beau (très moderne). Le personnel est très accueillant et professionnel. Gros coup de coeur pour le pays et la ville! Très safe, toujours en mouvements, tout le monde est heureux, rien que de ondes positives! Le bâtiment extérieur et intérieur est très bien, peut être juste un peu long à pied depuis la résidence (The Loft (25min))J'ai eu l'occasion d'aller à Malte l'été dernier malgré un bon séjour c'est vrai qu'il y avait pour ainsi dire que des Turcs et des Brésiliens.. Cette fois ci il y avait une plus grande diversité! Ce qui est bien sûr plus agréable (Bien que à la résidence il y avait beaucoup de Suisse de la partie Allemande et d'Allemands..). C'est vraiment sympa d'avoir deux professeurs différents sur une semaine et par niveau!Les livres (par National Géographiques) sont vraiment sympa car on apprend aussi des choses (culture général) et les images sont magnifiques! Le trajet est quand même sympa à faire et encore mieux si tu peux le faire avec d'autres résidents! Au début il ne m'a pas parut si long mais c'est vrai que par temps de pluies ou à la fin après plusieurs semaines il parait long et on doit opter pour le Uber! Je ne l'ai pas fait mais je sais que l'option de prendre un abonnement d'1 mois pour les vélos est vraiment sympa!Je recommanderais le logement même si en tant que logement il y a mieux l'ambiance y est chouette! C'est plus facile pour faire des rencontres! La chambre est plus grande que ce que j'avais imaginé et le tout est très correcte! Si il y a un point négatif à dire c'est peut être le manque d'équipements auxquels on ne pense pas forcément dans la cuisine! Pas de savon de vaisselle, d'essuie, d'éponge, de serviettes/essuies-tout et à peine pour le reste (ex 2 fourchettes dans ma chambre (pas chez mon "voisin"), dans ma chambre pas de tasse (dans d'autres oui) /

« L'école est moderne, petite mais suffisante, facile à trouver, belle, pratique au point de vu de la localisation (ex. café à proximité), dispose de services pratique (fontaine à eau, micro-onde, ordinateurs, jeux de société,..)Le personnel esttrès à l'écoute, très gentil, souriant, compétant autant les professeurs que ceux de l'accueil ou que Raphael le directeur. Les cours sontintéressant, dynamique grâce aux différentes méthodes/supports et différents profs (jeux, présentation oral, discussion, apprentissage de grammaire, livres, feuilles d'exercices, devoirs,..), les livres sont vraiment cool.Les petits plus sont les diners 'culturels', les petits déjeuners, les sorties en boite le mercredis.. qui rapproche des autres étudiants (qui ne seraient pas dans ta classe ou dans la résidence), pour une ambiance familiale »

Testimonials

Tina Illig

EC, Miami

I chose Miami Beach for my language study because the weather is always nice here. I really love this city. Especially the Lincoln Road where the school is located as well as the great beach and the sea. I would definitely like to come here back again. The staff of EC Miami is very friendly and helpful. About the school I like the most that we got books that we can keep after the course. On the first day the staff of the school even invited all new students for lunch – that was awesome! I met some great friends in school from Germany and Russia. I am sure that I will keep in touch with them after this vacation. One day I went with some of them to Key West. This was definitely one of the best days in my entire life. I will never forget the experiences I made here in Florida. Thank you so much!

Giangiuseppe Torsiello

EC, Miami
Duration: 24 weeks

I spent 6 months in Miami and I have only good things to say about my experience. Miami is a beautiful city divided into districts, which may be residential, cultural or trendy, with lots of restaurants, shops and nightclubs. I can’t describe the city because I think it’s better you explore it yourself, but what I can tell you is this: if you get a chance to go there, go for it and you won’t regret it. But careful, the cost of living is rather high, especially if you want to go out at night. Read more

Marco Odone

EC, Miami
Duration: 7 weeks

Hello! My name is Marco Odone and I went to Miami, Florida, with ESL for a 7-week language stay. My goal was to improve my English level, making the most of all the activities offered by this destination. I lived with a host family in Miami Beach and the school was a 15 minutes’ walk from the house. The family was very nice and the school as well. Courses were adapted to each person’s level. The atmosphere was great and the different activities proposed by the school were interesting and varied. I really enjoyed my 7 weeks in Miami because the city never rests and the weather is always good.

Host family
Immerse yourself in the daily life of a local Miami family in order to discover the various facets of this vibrant city. You'll stay in a single or double room (only if you book with a friend) and share the bathroom with the other family members. Breakfast is included. Your hosts will allow you to use the washing machine and provide you with bed linen and towels. All of the host families are selected with care; they reside around 60 minutes from the school and are used to hosting international guests. It's an opportunity to live in total immersion and get a taste of the city’s atmosphere!

Note: It is compulsory for students under 18 to book homestay accommodation and provide a parental consent form.

Superior Bayshore Residence
This luxury residence offers shared apartment units with twin beds and shared bathroom. Bed linen and towels are provided, Wi-Fi is included and a free-to-use washing machine is available in each unit. Weekly cleaning of rooms and common areas is also included in the price. Meet the other international residents in the common lounge or in the shared kitchen, and enjoy the fitness centre and the outdoor pool! The lively area of Biscayne boasts plenty of cafés, restaurants and shops. The school is 25 minutes away by bus.

Comfort Lenox Residence
Enjoy your twin studio (which can also be used as single) in the heart of South Beach… You’ll be only a 4-minute walk from the school! Each studio features an en-suite bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, cable TV, bed linen and towels. Wi-Fi is included. Coin-operated laundry facilities are available on site and free cleaning of rooms and common areas is provided once a week. The residence is close to multiple shops, cafés, restaurants and, of course, the beach!

Our partner school provides a daily leisure programme, including sports activities, excursions, common outings to discover Miami’s nightlife, and much more. Miami offers a both relaxed and bustling lifestyle - mostly due to its large numbers of Latino immigrants, who contribute to create a festive atmosphere in the city. You will therefore enjoy a thrill-packed stay together with your new international friends. The beach and water sports will take up most of your free time but you will also realise that Miami hosts unexpected treasures such as museums, art galleries and architectural attractions. Make the most out of your language study trip in Miami to explore a city you will remember for the rest of your life!
