English Standard course - Accommodation Included

The classes had a sufficient number of students. The teacher was good, cheerful. The location was okay, not far from Paris. facilities were okay. the activities were fun and interesting. I did not like that sometimes the activities were not well organized. We always had to wait for the staff to plan everything to the end. Housing was normal, there are no pluses or minuses.

The teaching, teachers, students and staff were great. They were welcoming, always kind and respectful. My teacher was very understanding and always made it fun to learn. She never excluded anyone and always made sure were all on the same page even if it was challenging for other students. When it came to the food and living areas, it was not as good. The bed was very hard and the showers were cold and dirty. There was very little variety of food and it was not always appetizing. On the other hand, the evning activities and excursions were really fun and I made a lot of long lasting memories.

My experience at the Paris-Passy camp wasn't what I had initially excpected. The food was bland, the location is an hour trip from Paris, you can't walk around on the grounds alone, and the camp is only partially immersive. The only times when I'd hear french was during the classes, for the rest of the day all the kids would communicate in english or spanish, and the animators would always speak in english when communicating with the kids. We were given maybe 6 hours of freetime per week, I didn't have a blanket for the first 4 days, only once my parents had asked for one did I get one. Many pipes in the bathroom leaked, leaving the bathroom floor soaked. And I'd also hoped that there would be more people that were 14, in my time there I met only two other people. The only positives I have is that my teacher was nice and the monuments of paris were very impressive. Pretty much everything else was disappointing.

I loved all the friends I made and staff I met. The classes were long but I liked my teacher and learned quite a lot. The facilities were not ideal especially the cold showers no matter what time of day but the beds weren’t the best but I adjusted. The activities were fine a bit to long and I feel they could have given us more free time. The exertions were good could be more organized. The food was not very good on some days and I wish breakfast had fruit or something more fresh. The office also were very rude to me anytime I tried to ask for anything so they could maybe work on that. I loved everyone and the night time activities especially the staff because they were very understanding and tried to make things fun.
