Review about Abbey DLD London Summer Camp
I made friends from different countries, with whom I now correspond on social networks, had a great time on excursions. I also liked the classes at the college, there were a lot of interactives and conversations, thereby I improved my speech in English. But the food was not varied, often hot dishes were not served, the only free drinks were water: with and without gas, you had to pay for coffee or tea + if you sleep with the window open, you will hear the sound of trains very well (because the rails are right under the college), but I opened the window for the whole day when I was not in the room, and at night I closed it, so it is almost inaudible and you can quickly fall asleep; But in general, the impressions are good, I would like to go there again!!
My daughter was delighted with the trip. She liked the college and all the classes themselves! Next summer we will go only to DLD colleges in England, or France. With any choice we will work with you, we are extremely satisfied!
I attended the Summer Academic English course in Abbey DLD College London: my children are studying in the UK, and I also wanted to improve my knowledge. With SMAPSE I chose courses for adults in London - in my free time I wanted to walk around the capital, see sights, go on excursions.
Thank you SMAPSE for a well-organized trip! The specialists did everything necessary: they picked up a program for me, provided several schools. I was surprised that Smapse has no commission for enrollment: when I made inquiries in other agencies, everywhere they called me big amount of money for the organization. Smapse also explained that they work with schools as partners, and not as intermediaries, therefore they do not take a commission from clients. As an additional service I ordered here the translation of documents for a visa - but this service is paid everywhere, and in Smapse, far from the highest prices. But in the consulate for an interview recorded completely free of charge and at a convenient time for me.
The next summer I also plan to go to United Kingdom. We have already outlined some good schools for adults - I want to spend time on the coast this time, probably, I'll go to Brighton, the reviews are very good.
I'm very glad that I've addressed SMAPSE. I received quick and detailed answers to all questions
Working with SMAPSE experts was really easy, pleasant and effective. I hope that Diana in London will also be good. Special thanks to you for your participation, interest and professionalism. I will be pleased to recommend your company, I think we will also cooperate with you in the future as I want to continue studying abroad.
