Testimonials

Thank you very much for all you have done for me! I felt comfortable and happy in this school. This school is very well organised and when I had some problems everybody was interested in helping me! All the teachers I had were very patient and open-minded, which made it possible for me to learn in a harmonious atmosphere. The excursions and the special events were wonderful & SUPER-ORGANISED!! While we were enjoying them we improved not only our English in a relaxed way, also we were able to get to know each other from all over the world, which was a great experience!

Thanks!! All the best!

Towards the end of the course everyone receives a Feedback Form so that they can tell us what they thought about their stay at TIS. Here are some of things that past students have said about us:

Mikael and the rest of his group with their teachers. He is 3rd from the left at the back

I think the Club TIS Hotel is very good.

I've leaned a lot about the English Grammar.

I want to say thank you to JP, he is really a go ahead guy.

You helped me a lot. I think I can speak with some fluency without so many mistakes.

These students from a small group from Chile with their teacher (here for the second time) said this:

This is an unforgettable experience. To learn about the English culture and also, to know all sort of people. (Antonio)

Located in a beautiful and quiet city, TIS offers you the possibility to study English with good teachers and friendly classmates from all over the world. It also offers lots interesting and very entertaining activities out of the school and the city. It’s much better than I expected. (David)

It has really been an incredible experience. The teachers are great, the environment is excellent and the classmates really friendly. But we don’t only learn English, all the different trips that the school organize let us know a lot about British Culture, the castles, history, food etc (Mayo)

Hiroko was an English Language student at TIS in 1995. She came back again to visit in 2009 and was able to meet up with her teachers and other staff that she remembered. We took the opportunity of videoing her speaking in Japanese about TIS. This testimonial is useful for Japanese students who want to study and lean English in England.

Hiroko speaks in both Japanese and English on the video.

Greetings from Buenos Aires. First and foremost, we want to thank you very much for everything TIS staff did for our group of ladies. They were thrilled about everything and the leader is already planning to come back next year. Congratulations for such magnificent work, as always!
