"A good time to learn"

Botond Bíró, student from Hungary

The class was good and the students too,but the room was a little bit too hot. Teachers was always kind and helpful to me. The location was really good. It was in downtown so I could hang out after school in the centre. Also the train station was near from from the school. I did not see a lot of interesting facilities in the class.In the classroom we did some activities but we did not go outside in that 3 weeks. My accommodation was in my cousin's house so it did not connect to the Collage.

I almost liked everything in the class except we did not have air condition.

I recommend this Collage to everyone who wants to learn and spend good time.

"I spent a very good time at Leeds Language College, the school is very pleasant."

Grégory Gautier, student from Switzerland

There are not a lot of students in the classes, which is very pleasant. Thanks to that, the school is able to give us good teaching with obviously good teachers. The school is in a good location, in the city center, so it's easy to reach it by public transport. There is an activity which is planned each week for the whole school, which permits the students from all the classes to meet each other. Moreover, a trip is also planned once or twice a month. The only negative point is the computer equipment which doesn't work very well.

"I had an amazing experience at the college and in the city as well."

Eliane Ariclenes Gaspar da Silva, student from Angola

It was my first time to go to Europe and because of that I was a bit scared because I went there alone but when I arrived at Manchester airport there was a taxi waiting for me and drove me to Leeds the city where I stayed. The host family where I stayed was wonderful and they treated me as a family. The College was amazing, I must say that if I didn't do the IELTS preparation I wouldn't pass in my exam and the college helped me to take the mark that I was required. With their methods of teaching I could see my improvement, I remember that when I first arrived I couldn't speak fluently like I'm speaking now. The teachers are very patient and qualified for teaching.
