Having studying in The Language Academy has made me more confident and able to speak English.
The school have great teachers and during four hours a day, or more, you can practice your English being warned to use the correct grammar language.
I have studied for six weeks in Fort Lauderdale and was a unforgettable experience.
In my opinion the one problem was the book. It is used in class, but sometimes not even the teachers like to use it because it has strange exercises. I received the workbook, however the student book is used only in class. We can't bring it with us.
Would be important we receive the student book to study the grammar at home during the course.
I think it's a good structure in which you can study and meet new people form other countries. The teachers are very good, as well as their methods.
