    • What is this Summer School about?

    The Coding Summer School will teach your children how to write code using the latest Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth while learning English. At the end of the course, they will be given their own Raspberry Pi to continue learning after going back home. Additionally, we will provide plenty of interactive activities for the afternoons and the evenings. This will facilitate your child’s interaction with other students in a recreational and didactic way.

    Your children will find themselves confident in connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures, using the English skills they learned in the classroom.  Coding is one of the programmes that we offer at LAL Berkhamsted, our Digital Summer School. Find out more about what we offer to provide your child with the best experience during the summer.

     I liked my stay here a lot.
    The school system is great with the different levels and the online Advantage page where you can practice. My teacher was very friendly and taught in a good way.
    One weekend, I was with some friends of school at the beach in Miami. It was very beautiful with the nearly white sand.

     It was a great experience.
    The teachers are very kind and patient. I’ve learned a lot of things and I met amazing people. It was a great experience, because you can learn the language and discover other cultures. There are not a lot of people in a class so you can speak and improve your English easily.

     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.

     The teachers had good British English.
    My Intensive English course covered all the basics in the morning but then lessons were more specific and sophisticated in the afternoon, mixing with students from other classes. The teachers had good British English and classes were mostly a good size (less than 10) during my 3 week stay.

     LAL team helped me feel welcome.
    The LAL team helped me feel welcome. They were very understanding and I am very happy with both the school and my class! I improve my English skills every day and recommend it to anyone who wants to learn English.

     The most beautiful sunrises and sunsets in my life.
    My favourite place in Cape Town is Lion’s Head where I can walk from the school. I’ve been there several times for the sunrise and sunset, which have, incidentally, been some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets in my life.
