"Nice experience and effective vacation"

Mariusz Reichel, student from Poland

I like it at all. It was first such experience for me and for sure I will continue it next vacation. Teachers and people form the schools were really very friendly. What was surprising to my parents that the area around the school is easily excessively to everybody but I enjoyed it much.

"Very nice staff, comfortable accommodation, well organized lessons"

Kira Roslavleva, student from Germany

Teachers were amazing and helpful, comfortable accommodation, top location. Food quality could be improved and it was sad that kids were not allowed to leave accommodation on their own (so kids could not really enjoy location in the old city and close beach)

"It was a great learning experience"

Alexander Sivaiev, student from Netherlands

First of all the host family was great. The lady I was staying at was very kind and I lived one minute by foot from the school. The classes were fine it was just very hot in the first week which of course isn’t the teacher’s fault. The teachers tried the lessons as interesting as possible. The activities were fun but most importantly I made a lot of new friends which was the best part of my stay.
