  • "The teachers are really friendly and I feel really comfortable here. I had 5 or 6 different teachers and they are really suitable for the course they teach. On General English Anil always corrected my pronunciation and grammar mistakes."
  • "My host family helps me with English and I will miss them a lot. I was worried before I arrived if they might not be friendly and if I could understand English but all is OK . Everyone I have met at home and in the town is very friendly."
