I had Intensive English and it was four lovely weeks in LAL School

It could be in Portuguese, but I preferred to challenge myself and write my testimonial in English. I had Intensive English and it was four lovely weeks in LAL School. It was really good for me to interact with teachers and other schoolmates. My host mother, Bev and her mom were the best people that I met in Cape Town. I really felt at home. I will miss our conversation. Bev was a really mother for me . I have to say thanks for that.

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.
