My name is Rosa, and this was my second experience with Living Learning English. I have to tell that I would strongly recommend this organization to anyone looking for an English immersion program. All the staff is really kind, efficient and helpful.I spent two weeks with Katy, Ian and their lovely cat Dave in Minster (Kent). We had a 4 hour lesson every morning and Katy did It really light and funny. Every lesson was perfectly planned and We used different resources: Text books, News, films, radio….She’s a really good teacher, She loves teaching and you can feel It.Katy had planned different activities to do every afternoon: visiting beautiful cities, museums, castles, the beach.…. And She really enjoyed as I did.Ian and Katy are very warm people. They were so kind to me that , I went with them to the cinema, to the bowls, to the pub with their friends…... They made me feel at home. Their house is a beautiful house with a lovely garden and I really enjoyed my time there. I will miss Ian, Katy and DaveAll the above, helped me to improve my English level ,much more than I expected. I feel very happy with my experience

Everything was easy with Leaving Learning English. I booked two weeks course and the experience has been really enriching. I stayed in Preston, Northwest, and John Rutter was my teacher. John and Lin were very nice and kind. The location was fantastic: parks nearby, walking distance to the city center; perfect for free time activities. Lessons were perfectly organized and we used different teaching materials: newspapers, videos, radio programs, role plays, etc.; they highly caught up my expectations. My listening and speaking skills have been improved and I gained fluency. However, the biggest advantage was that I could speak English all the time. Excursions were fun and interesting at the same time. For example, we went to a theatre play, which allowed me to meet more people and work on different accents and comprehension. I recommend John Rutter as teacher and Leaving Learning English!

We spent a great week in Bristol during 2:1 course.Learning English in the family was so comfortable, that we enjoyed every chat, meal, lesson with family, and even doing homework!)I can say that it was one of the most interesting experiences in my life.

Company Living Learning English organized my course perfectly! They provided me absolutely with everything: recommendation about clothes, transport, what to bring, gave me all modern and useful course materials.Elaine’s and Patrick’s family was very lovely! I was so warmly welcomed, they did their best to make me feel at home. The food was delicious, although it wasn’t easy with me, because I’m a vegetarian.Our lessons were organized properly, Elaine brought me different materials, for example, we watched videos, or read different newspapers and magazines. The teacher asked a lot of questions and organized many conversations, it was very supportive. The teachers there aren’t just teaching you, they entertain you! For instance they’ve shown me really interesting TV-programs, told me about events I might enjoy, invited me to a party with their friends (this was really amazing, I met a lot of very nice, friendly and interesting people!).I’ve learned a lot, not just grammar but about speaking natural English. Before I came there I was shy speaking English, but now I’m confident, I’m not afraid to speak and make mistakes.I’d recommend Living Learning English to everybody!

Very great, Its very great to learn English because you are always learning even if you are doing simple activities.

Fernando has enjoyed a lot his stay and has improved his English. He has told us that he wants to repeat the experience again.We want to thank Living English because to organize everything has been very easy, quick and clear since the beginning.

I booked only one week with Living Learning English. They replied very quickly to my request. I chose Capel St. Mary, a nice village near Ipswich. Michelle Miller, my teacher, was very patient and professional. I learnt a lot with her manner of teaching. My level is not so high but I feel more confident after this experience. One week is not enough but with Michelle every one can learn English very quickly. Very professional. Also She suggested me the way for memorizing each new word.Very helpful was Michelles family: they helped me every day for speaking.I recommend Michelle Miller to everyone. It was a wonderful experience.Thank you so much to Living Learning English.

I am happy to review my experience with my home stay family. This is my first time staying with an English family and I have realized that my English level has improved a lot that I am pleased with it.I also did leisure activities with my teacher after my lessons, such as: cycling, Segway, gym, crazy golf, running and swimming. At Christmas/New Year, we went to London with tickets to see the amazing fireworks display and had a party with Dot brother’s family on Southbank near the London Eye. I had a traditional English Christmas which was fantastic.

Incredible educational experience! I had a very good time and I learned tons of new things as well; caring and prepared staff.

Hi! I’m from Ukraine. I’ve stayed in Newport 3 weeks and now I want to share my recent experience.To begin with, I want to say a few words about my host family. The family was very friendly and caring, because they were spending a lot of time with us. Also, there was a little baby, called Mollie. She was very funny and we enjoyed to play with her. They were like our friends: we were playing different table games, football, watched British TV series together and talking about everything every time.What about excursions: that was really awesome! We got a lot of impressions and emotions from different places. We’ve visited Swansea, Burry Island, Cardiff many times and also the places like coal mine, mountains, museums, restaurants and shops.Furthermore, I made a lot of friends. We really got close with the Spanish girl- Lucia. We had a lot in common, so we’ve spend our time together. There was also the ability to meet family’s relatives and friends.What is more, the English program was very good. It was definitely appropriate for my level and improved it even better. I’m not absolutely fluent, but I can easily talk with others, keep up the conversations and talk on different topics. Also I improved my other skills, such as writing, reading, listening.All in all, I want to say that I’m really satisfied with that opportunity. I’m recommending this family and LLE school for everyone, that wants to improve English skills, taste British traditions, make new friends, and , of course, spent the summer unforgettable!

Im so glad I could take part in this course, its the firts time I had an oportunity to live with an English family. I really enjoyed it, I can see how my language is getting better. The biggest advantage was that I had to speak English all the time, not only in the lessons. We can also do different things with my teacher(in english), for example play sports, go shopping or watching films.

My name is Matthias I am 16 years old and I from to France, its my second experience with LLE and for the 2 time the trip was so amazing, I meet a amazing people and I improve my level in English and I discover the culture and tradition of English people, I recommended LLE for all student who want to improve his level.

Im Andrea Rizza and I studied English for one month with Karen Mizen in Bristol and I am very happy, I improved my English a lot, I saw beautiful places on our trips and I had a nice time in Karens house.Karen and Brad are the best for me.I recommend Karen Mizen and Living Learning English.

Two Awesome Weeks With DanielaHello! My name is Ivan Bokhan. I’m 15 years old and I’m from Belarus. I staying in a nice two-story house in Cottenham , Cambridge. I will be here for two weeks, with Daniela, Deryck (her husband) and two nice children. I stay here with another student called Hugo. I’m really happy that I can stay with so nice family.FamilyThe family is really polite and funny. I think that is good that I can talk with native speakers. They have a children, Emma and Andrew (7-years old and 11-years old) and they are very nice and polite kids. I’m spending a lot of time with Andrew and we become a friends. I didn’t expect that in these family they have a children and I thought that it will be worse that without them but later we started to communicate very well.LessonsThis is very good that in our lessons we can decide the time of the lesson per day (we choose 5 hours per day) .In our first lesson Daniela show us the fat book called “Phrases, Saying, and Quotation” and every lesson we need to take two frappes from these book and explain it. In the beginning it was hard but later it became easier.In our lessons we work from the book as well as discussing exercises with my partner. And that was interesting and fun. Daniela reproduced texts for us and we listened to it. We had a lot of reading, speaking and working with exercises. I think that the main reason for this improvement is that I’m speaking English all the time. In lessons, with the children, on the excursion and with the partner. And I think that is important to think in English. I’ve been in England twice before, but this time was the best.HouseI was really impressed when I arrived. I went upstairs and I saw my room and it was awesome because the room is very big and we have our own bathroom. I shared the room with Hugo(my partner) but there is more than enough space for both of us. Our bedroom looks very big and clean and there are two windows so the room is nicely lit up the whole day.But not only our bedroom is really comfortable. We live here in a big house, the sitting room as well as the dinning room are quite big.Sometimes we have dinner in the big, nice and comfortable garden.I was extremely glad when I saw our house.FoodI’ve been in England twice before, but this time i had the best meals. We have three meals a day. In the morning we always have cereals with milk and orange juice. After lessons we usually have a lunch. Sometimes it is something lite like omelet or sandwiches. Near seven oclock we have a dinner. Daniela always cooking something nice and tasty for example pizza, pasta, risotto, fish or chicken. And sometimes we can try very tasty desert like chocolate cake or “pavlova” cake.ExcursionsExcursions was really interesting. One time we were in London and the other days we stayed in Cambridge.In Cambridge we visited many different Colleges. For example the St. Johns college impressed me because it looks like the Hogwarts from Harry Potter. We had many activities in Cambridge, like visiting tho shopping centre, the Fitzwilliam Museum, swimming pool, aqua park, and I really enjoyed the boat ride in King’s University.When we went to London we had the possibility to decide what we want to visit. So we decided to go on the London Dungeon. After this attraction we did a short boat ride which was very beautiful. We left the boat near the Tower Bridge so we climb to the top and took some beautiful photos and went by metro to the Picadilly Circus. The excursion to London was absolutely lovely.In the end I want to say that the house, people, food, excursions was really great. Thank you Living Learning English!

The best stay in EnglandFoodThe food was lovely, Daniela cook very well. We had three meals.Breakfirst : we ve got milk, cerealsThey were a lot of kind of cereals and weve got an orange juice.For lunch weve got two sandwiches or pasta carbonara. The sandwiches was good but i prefer pasta carbonara she makes it very well.For diner weve got some different meal everyday like pizza which i did it with her, weve got curry, chicken, risotto... . And some times for desert we can have ice-cream. We were never hungry because we can have as much as we want.ExcursionThe excursion was very good.Our first little excursion it was when we visit the village with Andrew ( the son of Daniela).The second we went to two museum which was cold Fitzwilliam museum and the second polar museum. In cold Fitzwilliam my favorite things were mummies and in the polar museum it was the model of boat. After visit museum we went to shopping it was very fun and at the end we went visit a lot of colleges and climb up an tower with the tight spiral staircase.But my favorite excursion was London because we went to London dungeon it was very fun and scary. After we went to Buckingham palace but they were a lot of people so we went to Westminster and we had a tour of boat in the river. Later we went on tower bridge, we climbed up and up there the were floor that was made with window. the view was beautiful, we took a lot of picture and we went at the front of the bridge because it was going to get up and open to have more place so the boat can pass. A few minutes later we went to Piccadilly Circus and we went in to Hamley it is a very big shop just for toys.I want to say thank you to Daniela for all the excursions, lessons and food. You are a good teacher you get me have fun into this trip. It was my favorite stay with Living Learning English.Hugo

This year I decided to book an English course to improve my English.I am 59 years old and my level was pre-intermediate I didnt able to understand English conversation. A friend of mine recomended LLE. I sent my whishes, for example I preferred to stay in the country, in a quiet place. I Wrote that I has loved animals and cooking and I asked to meet a very patience teacher. I hoped to speak and understand English better. Everything has come true! I really enjoyed my esperience. I spent two weeks with Juliet , her husband and their lovely dog at Blandford (Dorset ). My teacher has been very preparated and nice. I founded the house very confortable, I tasted special food and visited very interesting places. My teacher and her husband did not spare to make me at ease. Very Very good!I recommend it to everybody.

I went to Minster and I spent one week to Katys house, her husband Ian and Dave, a very beautiful and sweet cat. I learned in this week much more than many other courses which I done in my life. I am 58 yeras old, so, I do a lot of courses in my life!!!!! And Katy is a very good and competente teacher; in Minster I studied 3 hours in the morning and then we went to Canterbury and Sandwich, two very nice towns!! And then to Quex Park, in the Museum and the garden, and I listened English, I learned to have a good relationship with english people. I am very very satisfied. Many thanks to Katy, to the Living Learning English school, and to the course manager Julie Conway!!!!!Giulia Checcucci - Italy

Im so happy to have chosen to do my course with Living Learning English.They were very supportive and always answered my emails quickly.Ive spent a week with Michelle and Jeremy at Jermyns Barn, in Suffolk. Everythings been perfect! Ive got a wonderful family, they really make me feel at home and the excursions have been lovely!Its been only a week, but its amazing to see how much Ive improved. Ive really got to grips with my pronunciation (Ive just learned this idiom :) ).Weve visited a typical English village called Dedham to have tea and cake. Weve been to the cinema, Ive tried the Fish and Chips, which I loved, and last night we had such a great time at a local Irish pub, which was interesting because theres nothing like it in Brazil!Today is my last day and we are going to Ipswich to have lunch, its sad but I need to go back to Brazil...Ill miss everything here...hope to come back!Hayna Borba - Brazil

Good

My 13 year old son Stefano spent two weeks in Huddersfield north of Manchester and it was an absolutely positive experience in every respect from the reception to the stay to the food to the free time to get to the excellent learning experience thanks to which he spent from level A2 to B2 (also certified here in Italy a few days ago to a test to understand at what level to enroll it). In the early days the boy was struggling and tired a lot but on his return he was already beginning to think about the farce in English before speaking ...

My 15 year old daughter spent two weeks last summer in Brighton for a 2: 1 course with LLE.After having accepted one of the professors proposed and having sent the first advance, we were informed that both the headquarters and the professor would be changed, as the latter had become unavailable.In addition, the partner girl was at a completely different level of English from my daughter, so that learning, despite the teachers commitment, was rather disappointing.I expressed my doubts in the final approval letter, but I never received a reply. Negative.

I sent my two children several times to Living Learning English. My eldest went for a first time in 1: 1 at the age of 12 for a two-week stay, then she left for two consecutive years in 2: 1. She has really progressed remarkably, but most of all, these stays gave him a taste for the English language. She is now pursuing graduate studies where English is one of her major subjects.My second child left once in 2: 1, but she preferred the next stage in 1: 1.The follow-up of the files and the organization are really flawless, everything is set up for the well-being of the child, in an optimum family and educational environment. I recommend it without a doubt!

I have been two weeks at Andrew Charltons house and it has been my first experience doing this type of course and I cannot be happier to have opened in a house like Andrews, it was like a second family you took confidence very quickly and I have also learned in two weeks more English than in the last 2 years.

I am Cristina and I have spent two intense weeks practicing and improving English with LLE and with my teacher Katy Andrews.Katy is a great professional who prepared her lessons carefully every day and adapted perfectly to the needs that I posed to her, we worked intensively on all my goals and the result has been excellent, since I have advanced more than expected. On the other hand, the welcome at her house has been fantastic for both Katy and her husband Ian, who have treated me like one of the family. We have gone to the movies, to dance classes, to church and they included me in all their plans. It has been a very good experience, totally recommended.Thanks Katy and Ian !!

I just spent a week with LLE at a teachers home. It was really fantastic. I progressed more than I expected. The courses are really very well built, the pedagogical approach excellent, I learned a lot while having fun. I managed to overtake some of my complexes to speak. The stay at the teachers home was a wonderful moment. The teacher was exceptional and the LLE team was very helpful and even present in the details like the trip! Many thanks to Elaine, her husband and a big thank you to the LLE team
