School Testimonials
"I really enjoyed my host stay: very nice people, great location, privacy was provided, overall excellent. My teachers were in tune to what my proficiency level was and made every effort to accommodate my capacity and push me further. Also very kind-hearted and friendly. The activities were fun, a good chance to socialize and find new aspects of the city. I enjoyed them very much. Best activity: dinner out by the river. Best excursion: wine caves in vila nova de gaia."
Amanda Reintjes - USA
"A warmest welcome - you immediately felt at home; all the teachers were really friendly. As an ex-teacher myself, it was easy to see that the teaching and presentational skills were of a higher order throughout. The staff had created their own teaching materials which were more appropriate and targeted and they seemed much more able to relate to our individual needs. They were just more aware and insightful. Also the individual 1 to 1 sessions were more structured and again more thought was given to our needs. I would go back there any time and I probably shall if I can find the time. Warmest thanks to the talented and dedicated staff there for a memorable week."
