Good afternoon, Marat! Our manager will send the information to you by mail.
Nikita Z.
(LAL Fort Lauderdale school review)

I liked the school (I took a business English course). As I got recommendations from friends, I took the school from the same network, and I turned to the same consultants - Smapse. I did not regret it, thanks for the high-quality professional work.

This was my first “specialized” trip abroad for a professional language course, and I was pleased: I got excellent basic knowledge, stable platform to further studying. Teachers are qualified, not just translated from the teenage group: they know what they are talking about, the specifics of business speech and writing, a lot was given by living examples, which is very convenient and easier to remember. In the next trip (and it will be accurate, because there is a need for work) I would change only a couple of things:

  • I would take a course in a large city: Fort Lauderdale is quite large and cozy, but I really wanted the feeling of a business epicenter. Perhaps consider something like New York, Chicago or Los Angeles
  • I would carefully choose the conditions for accommodation: in LAL Fort Lauderdale they offer very expensive hotels (like Mariotta) - for an adult person the hotel is more preferable than the host family, but when the cost of housing is almost higher than the course price, I think it is not quite right. I would like a greater variety of options and I think that they will be in big cities.

However, these are just my personal wishes and observations, I want to say right away, so I won't put any minuses on the school, I was pleased with the trip and its results.
