Mi è piaciuto tutto. Le lezioni nel modulo di 6 ore settimanali (SIXPLUS) è eccellente per chi come me ha studiato l'inglese anni fà e vuole riprenderlo in mano. Gli insegnati sono senz'altro molto preparati ed empatici. La composizione multietnica e le diverse età dei compagni di classe ,stimola a scambiare parole in lingua inglese. La sede è comoda ai servizi autobus ed ai pub e negozi, essendo in centro città. L'edificio nel quale si trova la scuola è moderno e facilmente accessibile (anche per i portatori di Handicap). Internamente la scuola è organizzata bene con aule studio e stanze relax molto spaziose e ben pulite. Lo staff della scuola è sempre sorridente, disponibile e preparato: appena può ti dà una mano e ti fa sentire subito parte del Gruppo. Grazie LILA!

Toon details » lees meer...Everything (teachers, location,housing ..........) was perfect.
Toon details » lees meer...Though I had very good moments at Lila, with good classes, staff very friendly, awesome teachers, I would like to point some issues:
The rooms are not lit enough. As an electrical engineer, I`m able to talk with property about this topic. All rooms have some deficiency of light to read tasks. I recommend a review of the light system that must change according to the colors of floor and walls.
During the first week, we had classes in a room without lights! The problem was solved just at the middle of the second week. I had headache almost every day. A teacher tried to move us to another room. But, even there, some lights were not working.
On the end of my period there, many friends were complaining about a specific teacher that is not native and had a very hard accent. I never had classes with him and I think this is not a rule, but travel abroad to study in a native english country and had classes with not native english teachers doesn`t make sense.
In Lila there are very good not native teachers, but would be nice a more criterious way to evaluate the new teachers.
Except by these points, everything was fine.
I must leave here my congratulations to the host family. They were amazing, very friendly! They deserve some kind of award. I felt in home for all time that I share with them.
They made the difference!
I was comfortable with the class and the teachers. Everybody was so cool with me. My host family was the best part of the experience, excellent people and excellent condition of a place to stay.
The only thing I didn't like was to wait so much time to know my host family details. It would've been better to have more time prior to my travel to make a phone call to my host family. Fortunately they were special people and I could feel like at home since the first day.
I loved everything in Lila! The school has a great location, very close to the city center and the bus stops. The lessons were exciting, I learned lots of new things. All the staff and teachers were so kind and always ready to help; and special thanks to Alex Evans, the best English teacher ever!
I really enjoyed the activities, there was a wide variety of different trips and excursions for any taste.
It was so cool to meet many people from all over the world and make lots of new friends.
I really liked the classes, teachers, location, facilities, activities, and housing.
Toon details » lees meer...The school is in down town and everything is near. The activities aren't that good. There aren't many activities.
Toon details » lees meer...I was in one advanced class and I really liked it. We usually were around 8 people and could discuss a lot of different topics such as the law, fashion and health. We had different teachers almost every week, so that it was very interesting to see in what way they tried to teach. Sometimes there were games, sometimes we had a discussion as a whole group or in pairs and sometimes we tried to work for ourselves so that it was a good mixture. The school has normal classrooms with whiteboards and tables so that it is no problem to learn there.
The social activities Lila offered were quite nice and it was good that there was a plan with all the activities available for each week. My housing was a bit outside the city centre, so that I had to walk 25 minutes. It was okay when it did not rain. I would have wished that more people of my accommodation would have gone to Lila, but on the other hand, I got to know nice people in the accommodation too who did not got to Lila but studied or worked in Liverpool.
All in all, it was a great experience and I was happy to go to Lila, because I think that it is one of the best and easiest way to make new friends.
Learn English to Lila was really interesting, because the teacher was interesting and dynamic. Liverpool had very nice people. My level in English is better now.

Hi Jeremy,
Thank you for taking the time to tell us a little about your recent experience at LILA*!
We hope to see you again in the future.
The LILA* Team
The teachers were very friendly and nice. I have learned a lot of new things. The lessons were fun, but we still learned new things. My classmates were very nice too. The location was quite nice and it was near to the train station, which I liked.
All in all, it was wonderful!
Hi Sophie,
Thank you so much for leaving a lovely review of LILA* Liverpool.
We'd love to have you back in the future!
The LILA* team
I liked classes. The teachers were great, but one thing I really missed was improving my grammar. Even in advanced class, we didn't practice much grammar. Most of the time we just did speaking which improved my English skills, but also got boring because we didn't write things down or write any essays.
I stayed at Alexander Terrace which, I think, was the worst part of my stay in Liverpool. During the last week, there was no hot water and anyway it was so dirty that it was impossible to use the kitchen there.
The time in LILA was nice, but i have to say that in my opinion the school should have a better structure. The teachers should be more organized.
With that I mean is that some teachers did at the same topics at the same time, and have also the same handouts for the students, which were quite boring.
Also the variety of the lessons are often the same, and if a person is not that into Art and stuff like this, it is just not interesting. Of course, Liverpool has a great history of music and art, but after one or two months I had enough. Everybody was talking about these things, even out of the school. At the advanced level, I also wish to talk about politics and business in English, but the teacher never talked about that. I couldn't figure out why, but sometimes I thought the teachers were afraid to talk about it, because they had a lot of different students with different cultural backgrounds. If a person like me is at the school for a couple months, it is a lot of repetition of the topics.
I also wished that the classes are better split, like grammar lesson, conversation, and write and reading, because if a student would like to improve their grammar skills it is almost impossible because 80% of the lessons are conversation. That is also the main reason why I can't recommend the school. Sometimes I thought some teacher were just not willing to do some grammar lessons because it is a bit a dry topic, but i mean that's a part of the language.
Another important thing is that all of the teachers should work with the schoolbook, because we have to buy the book for 25 pounds and at the end we got always handouts from some teacher from other books because they thought their own book would be better. Of course some teacher doesn't like this book, but if the teachers work with different books, the students shouldn't have to buy this books because that is quite piss-take.
I really a have to say Faith, Steven, and David did a great job it was a pleasure to have these three people as a teacher I wish more teachers would be like them.
The last negative thing the LILA wifi please remove it or change it with a wifi which works. The most of the time the wifi was so bad that I couldn't use my English dictionary. Better no wifi than a wifi like that. big minus point.
What I really liked were the Tutorials. It was really interesting to see how I improved my level from month to month. What I also liked were the trips. Hanna organized them always very well.
