The School was what I was looking for... Good teachers, good classmates, small groups, all time speeking english, practical lessons, extracurricular activities were great, acomodation not very clean, near school, very simple but with all things I needed...
Toon details » lees meer...I was at school two weeks, the last of July and the first of August. I found bright and clean classrooms, well-prepared professors with good pronunciation. The school is located in the center of Glasgow, easy to reach by bus but also for those who use the train.
I didn’t use school residences because I was host in a guest house in Paisley.
My only regret, due to my work, was the little time to attend school. From my experience I deduce that it is a few two weeks to get clear improvements.
The classes were funny and entertained and every theacher I had were really nice. The location was not really good, the first day I spent 15 minutes finding It, because It is linda hide but It was not far from muy apartment and that was good, finally, the House was ok, but my room was just next to the kitchen and It was really noisy.

Toon details » lees meer...This is a small, but good English school in Scotland. In 6 weeks I had 3 teachers with differents styles. Each of them focus in specific skill.
I would like to talk about Mr. Brian. He was a good teacher, but in some situation he was not polite with us. We complained with him. In one class a classmate said about exercise: "it look like a lottery. You [Mr. Brian] did not explain as much as we needed". After that, did not changed in our class. I were upset when I saw classmate did not arrive on Friday (because they feel afraid about test).
I filled the evaluation form all weeks, but I really don't know if the school read. I wrote about Mr. Brian behaviour. I wrote about I wanted more homework, but if I did not require each day, my requirement did not considered.
I recognize that Mr. Brian focus is grammar. And I appreciated because it was important. But he needs to recognize as well, what his class needed.
Finally, for 2 weeks we have no social activities and in one day, we waited for the person who proposed a tour and he/she didn't appeared.
For me to take this 6 week course at the Glasgow School of English was wonderful, an amazing experience, great school and excellent teachers and the location helps a lot as well being in the center of Glasgow very close to Central Station, where you can decide if you want to go by bus or train.The classes were very explanatory and the teachers always charged participation thus always encouraging the students' performance and in fact improving their English. I specifically did not stay in the accommodation offered by the school, because I stayed at the house of a friend who lives in Glasgow, her house was near the school (20 minutes by bus) which made my trips to school much easier. Particularly I liked everything that the school offered me, the classes the great teachers, the walks and the friendships that I made in this period in which I was there, for sure I will indicate the school to other friends who wanted to experience this experience and for sure I I'm going back to Glasgow, and in the future I'm going back to study English at the Glasgow School of English.

Not only talking, grammar and vocabulary but also the listening skills and the skill to understand different accents get improved. The teachers were motivated, good to understand and made me feel free to ask any questions. I loved the class and the work between the students in school, but also outside of it when we made little trips to cool places. The activities were inviting and really interesting and even with some complications anything is done to let interested people do these activities. In the end also the accommodation was perfect. Carol was really welcoming and open to me and also my room was beautiful. I liked my whole stay in Glasgow the only improvement for me is to stay longer the next time because one week is really too short to really learn something. But still it was a beautiful experience. Thank you :)

The housing : Excellent ! Good and comfortable room, safe, clean, big kitchen, all the facilities...
School: The location is excellent, in the city center. Very kind and helpful staff. I think it's a good school ( not excellent but good). Unfortunately, one of my teachers ( I've had 2 teachers) is not good at all, not motivated and dynamic and her classes weren't very useful. My classmates have thought the same about her. But , the others teachers are appreciated from the others students. So, I think it depends on the teacher . In general, I've appreciated the school and the staff, the social activities, but i'm not sure about really recommend it for my friends.
It was my first experience in a course abroad. Actually, I contracted the Language International's services to study English in Toronto (CA) too. Specifically, my experience in Glasgow was amazing. I liked so much of the classes, teachers, structure (simple, small and organized), of the people mixture with different accents. The residence is great and very clean, but the kitchen does not so clean. Doesn't have the staff to organize the kitchen three times per week, for example. Are lots of students using the kitchen, so could be interesting have anybody to help and keep the kitchen clean, beyond the own students does it.

The class lessons were very interesting and useful in learning English. The school had a perfect location, because it was in the city center, very close to the public transportation. All the furniture were totally new.
Toon details » lees meer...I'm very happy to have done this experience; the teachers were very good, I liked the variety of activities and the skills taught.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
I liked studying with people from other country; it was very exciting and interesting.
I didn't have time for the trips because my course only lasted one month.
My experience in Glasgow School of English was very instructive, the courses weren't like 'normal' courses in high school. It was much more relaxed, but we could learn very well with Brian, who I think was a very good teacher. I didn't do any activities with the school but I heard much feedback from friends who were enjoying the trips.
The facilities are very well situated in the center of Glasgow so it's really easy to reach the school every morning and to have lunch.
It was a good experience!
The Glasgow School of English is very international. There are students from all over the Europe and Asia. Brazilians haven't discovered Glasgow yet. Nobody speaks Portuguese there. Definitely, Glasgow is a very good place for Brazilians to study English. The city is beautiful, safe, and a little bit less expense than London. About the school. It's nice, mainly because the localization. It is in the heart of Glasgow.
Toon details » lees meer...I liked that the classes in the school are clearly divided into different levels; it helps students to advance step by step. For the first 4 weeks, I studied General English, which helped me to adapt to the language. Then I moved up to the IELTS class, where the education program was more intense, but I was already prepared for that and have done quite well with the program. I would like to note the high level of teachers and express to them my deepest recognition.
The location was very convenient.
Also I liked that there was a lot of school trips and excursions organized. It was very interesting.
My accommodation was just gorgeous. It was very convenient to get to school. I had a private room with a bathroom; everything was very clean and comfortable. The food was also excellent. But most importantly, I felt more a family member rather than a student renting a room. My host mother and me became friends and still keep in touch with each other.
From what I did not like: there is a required on-line test. But sometimes it is done several months before the start of the course and the real level of language knowledge is not always corresponding to the results of the on-line test. I think it is more expedient to conduct testing on arrival of students in the school.
Good teachers. Too many classes. We had two professors in the conversation course. One would have been better to learn better. In my case in a week we have not been able to learn some of the most important basics.
The school is very small so the classrooms are small. Good quality but price is the most economical in England.
The location was very good. I lived in hotel and it was near the school (about 10minutes walk). It was different from the LSI in Cambridge, smaller. But materials I got was good and liked being in Glasgow.
Toon details » lees meer...The organization of the course was not suited to my expectations. In fact, I didn't have much time (just a week). I had to follow the same course as other people taking over several months. The pedagogy of the school didn't suit me. The Professor in the morning was very nice. He tried to give me what I need (vocabulary, grammar), but there were many students in the group and he had no time to dig up my difficulties. The Professor of the afternoon was really incompetent. He didn't prepare his lessons and we watched movies most of the time. I felt like wasting my time and my money. I learned more in the street with the people we met. I don't keep a good memory of this experience.
