They did everything they could to look after me… 
    

    

    I’d like to take this time to say something about the time I spent in Cape Town, especially the accommodation. Even if my host family is away from here by walking, Ms Bev Lucraft and her mother are friendly and they did everything they could to look after me.  I recommend to the LAL to choose that host family to the others students because it is a good stay.
    

    Teachers are good at English and they gave me all English I’m looking for and other facilities to succeed.  I’ll recommend other students to take part in LAL.

    Thank you so much LAL School and Cape Town for an amazing week spent here. Every activity that was organized by the school was well-organized, every tour is memorable. Special thanks to my teacher Shuraiz and his stories in the museum.
    

    

    I wish I can stay here for more weeks because 1 week in Cape Town it’s not enough and I would recommend LAL school to anyone who wants to improve his/her English.

LAL is my favourite English school 
    

    

    I couldn’t be more glad to have been studying here in LAL London for the past 3 months. Firstly, because London is my favourite place in the world, and because LAL is my favourite English school – and that’s why it’s my third time here! The lessons are amazing. I’ve learned so much with my teacher James and all my classmates. And more than grammar, I can understand more about people and cultures. Each class is an adventure that takes us to different subjects, cultures, worlds. In each class we share a little bit of us, and that’s what makes this experience so fantastic.
    
Studying in this charming town of Twickenham, I have learnt to be more confident as an English student and as a person.This is the most important experience of my life. Thank you, LAL, for being part of it!
