I feel ready to take and pass my TOEFL test thanks to four weeks of intensive work. Our teachers, made sure that we knew everything about the TOEFL test and gave us specific feedback on our progress and proficiency.
I had a very good time with LAL here in Ft. Lauderdale. I improved my English, I had friendly classmates and a very nice host family. The lessons were very effective. We had enough opportunities for speaking and discussed many interesting topics. Ft. Lauderdale is a very nice place for learning English and I will definitely recommend it! My host family gave me a good home for this time and I’m very glad that I decided to choose this option. It was easy for me to integrate and the support of my family was really helpful. So, I will definitely come again, but then I will stay for longer. Two weeks are too short. Thank you for the nice time here with you!
I thank all the staff of LAL School for my language stay in Cape Town. Teachers are very good and school facilities such as internet connection, activities and the food are satisfactory.
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.
It was an amazing trip in LAL School. Course and lessons 10/10. Teacher Casey was a very good teacher. Accommodation – Thank you for cleaning all day!
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.
