The location is pretty nice, not far from Barcelona, where i slept. Also the beach is not far, about 20 minutes walking. This is good for our afternoon activities, also if i found them pretty underwhelming and very different from what you can see on the website. English classes were nice, the teacher was very friendly.
I think the amount of grammar in classes was right, not much nor few. I had the opportunity to pick what to focus more on (idioms, verbs, pronunciation, word formation), and we didn't study only on books, but also with interesting and funny activities. After that we used to have lunch. In my humble opinion, food could be much better, we found it pretty similar everyday, with the same dishes over and over. As i mentioned before, afternoon activities were not great.
Personally i didn't pay an extra for the sport classes (like water sports, tennis and football), so i had to partecipate in other activities, like going to beach and going shopping. Those activities were boring and repetitive, because we went to the same mall (a small one) 3 times. We also did some cultural trips (two in two weeks) to barcelona, and visited Parc Guell and Montjuic (no tourist information or explanation of the place).
As i said before, activities were very different of the one that are mentioned in the website. There you can see "sports activities and laboratories", things that we didn't do at all, except for one day of water sports at the Canal Olimpic.
The staff was very friendly and willing to help you, but also organized so bad. We had to wait minutes, even hours because someone was missing or there was an issue. I had the opportunity to make friends from all around the world, and i had a good time with them. After all of this i could give this experience a 7 out of 10, nice but could improve a lot.
I liked the classes and teachers, especially however the structured every day program with the facilities at the beach and the activities. I also appreciated it that a boy at my age shared my room.
Show details » Read more...First day it was kind of cultural shock when I saw the residence and cuisine. Truly I wasn't satisfied with the housing: rooms were not comfortable and new like on the photos on your site, the food wasn't tasty for us at all. The transfer is really expensive!
But after few days we realized that everything wasn't so bad! First of all the staff was very pleasant especially director Pedro and his manager Issa were ready to help any time we needed! Location of the school and residence is very convenient and situated in a very green,quiet area,which is very nice to students! The teachers are excellent cause their English is nearly perfect and their relation with students was kind and warm! If the residence is not so new and comfortable, the school looks very modern, clean and well-equipped! There are all conditions for students, even water is free! Unfortunately couldn't take part in the classes, but some times they were a bit boring for our students (from their words)
All in all, we received great impression from Enforex and will recommend to our students to come back next year!
