"A great human and technical expérience ."

Alpha NIANG, student from France

Here is the translation of your description into English:

---

My overall experience at this institution was positive, but there were also some areas that could be improved. Let’s start with what I liked:

**Working atmosphere and group**
The working atmosphere was really great. I was fortunate to be surrounded by a serious and motivated group. This greatly facilitated exchanges and learning. The course format was well-suited, allowing us to progress in a structured and effective manner.

**Teachers**
The teachers were competent and engaging. They knew how to make the classes interesting and interactive, which really helped to maintain a good learning pace. Their teaching approach was adapted to our level and needs.

However, there were some aspects that could have been better managed:

**Start of the courses**
We did not receive clear instructions regarding the start of the courses, which resulted in a lost day. This was a bit frustrating, as better guidance from the beginning could have avoided this kind of misunderstanding.

**Location and directions**
Another negative point was the confusion related to the two school sites on Oxford Street. It wasn’t clearly indicated that the school had two sites, leading to unnecessary trips and wasted time. Better communication about this would have been appreciated.

**Facilities**
Regarding the facilities, I found that the classrooms were sometimes a bit cramped. This made the sessions a bit less comfortable, especially when there were a lot of students. Despite this, the overall organization of the courses made up for the lack of space.

In summary, despite some inconveniences related to the organization, the experience was enriching thanks to the excellent working atmosphere and the quality of the teachers. There is definitely room for improvement, but the positive aspects far outweigh the negative ones.

"It was good but I didn’t learn much"

Carolina Quenedey, student from Switzerland

It was good and central location. I was happy not to have any homework.
The teacher had a hard time with many students as they watched videos on their phone and ate all the time during class. The didn’t manage the class. The other things were ok.
I didnt learn anything new but it was ok.

"It was for me a very nice experience to participate in the course in London right in that school."

Katarzyna Topolska, student from Poland

I enjoyed the stay in Rose of York Lg School. The level of the group I attended was appropriate for me. In case the level was to low or to high there was possibility to change the group. The school offered so called grammar boosters, where you coud improve your grammar skills. I found this really useful. The atmosphere during the classes was relaxing and the teacher was friendly and charismatic. We did the lessons according to the course book but the teacher gave us additional copies to develop the topic of the lessons. What I also found interesting was the opportunity to get to know people from all over the world. Thanks to this fact we could exchange information about our L1, culture and habits. I spent there one week so I can't say anything about after school activities since there weren't any offered to me. The location of the school on Oxford Street near shops and the Tube is also worth mentioning.

"Totally incredible experience"

Taeshinee Phonsawek, student from Thailand

I have finished a 4 weeks IELTS + GE course. It had been a totally incredible experience for me. The first few days had some confusion about which classes I needed to be in, but all the staff was really nice and willing to help sort it out. It isn't a very big school but warm and cozy like a big family. Almost everyday I arrived half an hour before the class and teacher and staff were keeping me company and talked to me about my days. All the teachers and classmates were really nice. Class atmosphere was comfortable and open-minded. It was one of the best experiences in my life. Zero regret for this decision.

"It was really amazing for me to be able to speak, read and listen many enlgish topics, only for a few weeks. Rose of York have a strong way to help everyone to get effective english learning."

Mamadou Saidou DIALLO, student from Belgium

The first thing I would like to say is that Rose of York's premises is very nice, cleaner, and more comfortable. Everywhere you are in their rooms, you get a good feeling about areas.
The support is responsive and effective, every time they come back to you, asking you about things you need else, to help you to improve your learning and give some needed advice.
For the class lessons, teachers have really good experience in teaching, they speak the British as a native language as they do and they try faithfully to understand what you need to know and help you to do this by yourself and they use several useful rules in teaching grammar.
For housing, I did it myself before I went to London. But to open my bank account, of course, school support gives me hep and I dit it easily.
Due to the coronavirus pandemics, all social activities are stoped, but the teacher and support agents advise me if I need to visit some areas like a park or some famous places like The London Tower, the trip by boat on the Thames. I did these visits so that I always was discovering things that I never expected to see before.
I have been in London in April 2011, for a short time to participate in a conference organized by President Paul Kagame, from Rwanda. Of course, this trip was for me to discover London City more than to be able to understand what people were toking about because the conference was in English. Whether it was now, of course, I would understand many things they were toking about.
I would like to specify that Rose of York school is located on Oxford Street, of course, this place is very nice, known by people because many shops and supermarkets in London are setting on this street.
