It was such an amazing experience. I stayed during 3 months in the B1 class and I improve so much. At the beginning I couldn't speak with the other and I was bad. But, thanks to the great teachers, I improve a lot. The teachers are so kind and they know how to explain well English for people who don't speak English.
We are not many in the classes, so it's better for more individualized explanations.
The school is located at Greenwich, it's not so far from the center and it's a very nice place with a great view in the Greenwich Park and some very nice restaurant. It's easy to go to the center of London because you have the train where you can go to London Bridge and Charing Cross, you have also the DLR to go to Canary Wharf until Bank.
The school propose a social programme every afternoon and some activity and visits during the week-end. Its' so good because could can easily find a friend and speak in english.as much as possible and not only at school. The social programme propose cheap prices for some visits or activities.
I have no negative points.
The rooms are very good equipment, comfortable tables, chairs and their location: I saw all students and teacher. The book, which we used, very colored, understanding and nice. I liked exercises which we did in class and in home.
The teachers are very professional, they created very nice learning atmosphere. The teacher always answered all question, gave equal attention to all students and involved all.
I very like the location of the college. There is easy to get to college, it is next to rail station and bus. The college is located in very interesting area, next to history sites and river Tames.
I did not rent family housing, I lived in hotel. it was mistake. Next time I will live in family housing.
I liked all things absolutely, the visit and studding in your college are helping to progressive at my job.
Thank you very much
I would say the OIES in Greenwich is a wonderful place for improving your English language skills. I met people from different parts of the world and practiced with load of accents.
All the teachers are respectful and kind! They also try to provide any support and advices you need.
I didn’t really enjoyed “SCAPE” accommodation because of bad WiFi connection and coldness in rooms. But anyway it’s good location, near underground station “North Greenwich” (Jubilee line) and bus stops. Moreover there are several supermarkets in this area.
So if you want to spend time in good atmosphere and grow up as an English speaker, you defo should join Oxford International English school in Greenwich, London!
Thank You very much for one of the best period in my life !
