  • catherine woolsgrove | 23 Dec 2011, 17:13 My holiday in Sandwich Hello my name is Michelle.  I am 12 and I come from Korea.  I really enjoyed my holiday in England.  I saw Dover and Leeds Castle and Canterbury Cathedral.  I took many photos.  I went to the swimming pool and Cinema.  At the zoo I saw many animals such as penguins, tigers and parrots.  At the cinema I saw "Happy Feet Two" and "Arthur Christmas".  I also loved my teacher and her family.  She taught me a lot of things that I wanted to learn.  I made biscuits and chocolate cake and it was very fun and delicious.  I learnt many things and I feel relaxed now.  I think this holiday was the best ever.  I'll never forget about this holiday.  It was so much fun and I really loved it.

  • Ella Dingley | 16 Dec 2011, 18:06 Margate in November My name is Dasha. I come from Minsk, Belarus. Today is exactly one month that I left Margate. I spent two weeks in Margate and this is what I remember.  We made several excursions in the local area: around Margate old town, including the pier and the new Turner Contemporary Gallery. It was near this gallery that we saw the Queen when she visited Margate a few days later. We visited Dover Castle, including a tour of the wartime tunnels with the hospital and Dunkirk exhibitions, as well as the Great Tower and the Roman lighthouse. Together with my twin sister we visited the beautiful Leeds Castle. We spent a long time inside the castle itself, and then started on the grounds – the maze, where we found our way through the labyrinth and underground grotto, watched a bird display (with three storks – our national bird of Belarus), and looked at the amazing collection of exotic birds in the aviary and visited the dog collar museum there. We visited Canterbury Cathedral where we went to a service and listened to the  boys’ choir singing. We watched Professor Heard’s Curious Victorian Magic Lantern Show which was held in Walpole Bay Hotel in Margate. There was a very special atmosphere: the people around us were all dressed in the costumes of Victorian Britain. We made a few trips to the nearest large shopping centre at Westwood Cross to buy some Christmas decorations. I watched  the 3D film “The adventures of the Tin-tin” in the local cinema and went bowling with Ella’s younger daughter Alexandra. We also went to the Deal swimming pool with waves and a chute.  I went for a dog walk with Jim and Rosa and took lots of photographs of the sea, beach and cliffs with my special camera.

  • chen bonnie | 12 Dec 2011, 14:36 Two weeks in Bristol hello!  My name is Bonnie. I am from China.  I am 15.  I stayed in Bristol for two weeks.  It was very interesting because we went on trips to Bath and visited the Roman Baths.  We went to the Suspension Bridge, the cinema, the shops and the museum.  I learned about pronunciation, conversation, grammar and vocabulary.  It was very good!  I think my English is getting better.  Now I'm going back to China.I miss my family very much!

  • Ella Dingley | 9 Dec 2011, 18:16 Three weeks in Margate in July and August 2011 Hello, my name is Belen. I live in Madrid. I spent three weeks in Margate this summer. We went to the Shell Grotto and the new art gallery. I saw castles in Dover, Deal and Walmer and spent a whole day in Leeds Castle. It was very lovely. I spent a day in London. I went to Canterbury and saw the Cathedral and visited a haunted house. I visited Charles Dickens house in Broadstairs which is usually not open to the public and saw a torch-light procession in the folk festival there. I had a good time and learnt a lot of English.

  • Ann Bernard | 8 Dec 2011, 14:13 English in the countryside near the sea We are Albert, from Spain, and Luca, from Italy. We’ve had a great time during the two weeks we’ve been in a rural place near the sea, in West Somerset. In the mornings, we have had lessons and after lunch we have visited beautiful places like Bath, Woolacombe, Bossington, Minehead, Lynton, Watchet and Roadwater. We have also enjoyed going to Roadwater fete, and an amazing barbeque on Saturday night. We have also swam and surfed in the sea on special sunny days. Apart from visits, we’ve cooked tasty dishes like Risotto, Tagliatelle and Spanish omelette. We recommend this course to other students who want to enjoy learning English, want to go to the beach and live in a beautiful landscape.

  • Donna Butler | 1 Nov 2011, 16:02 My stay in Windsor I'm Benjamin Desbois and I'm 13 years old.  I am very happy that I came to England in Windsor.  Why?
    Because we went to London to see museums like the Historic one and the scientific one.
    My favourite day was when we went to Thorpe Park, a park with loads of rides.
    I enjoyed Halloween because in France people don't like it so I discovered it!  It was the first time I went 'trick or treating' down the streets.  The family was very nice, so I would recommend this family for other guys.
    Andrew and Charlotte were very cool with me.  
    So I have completed my contract speaking with lots of English people and discovered the super English food!

  • Ferdinand Borsch | 28 Oct 2011, 17:35 My Trip to Liverpool I spent an amazing week in Liverpool. It is such a beautiful city !
    What did I enjoy the most ?
    I enjoyed every excursions in the city but especially the excursion to the cavern where the Beatles used to play. They played like 292 times and you still can feel their spirit in the place. This bar is like a time machine : you get down the stairs and arrived in the 60s. It is so cool !
    The Beatles museum is to Liverpool what the Eiffel Tower is to Paris : you have to visit it. It is very fun and interesting. I had never been in the yellow submarine before I came there and it is such an experience !
    The family I have been living with was very welcoming. Jenny is a marvellous cook and teacher and Austin is such a good guide and also a Beatles encyclopedia. They were very nice to me. Annie, Sam and Adam were very cool too. I really enjoyed my time here with all of them.

  • Nadezda Golubeva | 27 Oct 2011, 10:55 My St Albans experience During my half term holidays I went to Kate and Peter’s house to improve my writing skills. While staying at St Albans I visited local shops and I was pleased to know that they have my favourite shops such as River Island, New Look and of course Jack Wills. Also we went on a walk to Epping Forest which I found really exciting as I met lots of people and I had a chance to talk with them. I had an experience of visiting Wagamama with Kate’s family and we spent a fantastic time eating and gossiping. I spent a lovely time at Kate Irving’s house.

  • Svenja G. | 11 Oct 2011, 11:12 My week in Wallingford I stayed 1 week in the lovely town Wallingford near Oxford and I really got the most out of it ! After the 1:1 lessons in the morning, my family and I visited many places of interest and I enjoyed the beautiful landscapes and the autumn colors. It was very helpful to live in the teacher's house as you are fully immerged in the English language and way of life. I would be glad to go there again and I can only recommend you to experience a week like this !

  • Adam A | 10 Oct 2011, 16:58 My Stay in Wolverhampton I was working with Jennifer in Tettenhall, Wolverhampton. I am from Ostrava, Czech Republic and I am almost 14 years old. I have enjoyed getting to know Jennifer and Nick, and Álvaro who is from Spain. We went to London, Coventry, Shrewsbury and we climbed The Wrekin. We visited Bridgnorth and walked along the canal and the old railway. We have done so much as well as learning English! I have been able to follow my own interests (electronics!) and we have shared lots of funny moments. We both have happy memories to take home with us.

  • Serafin P | 25 Feb 2011, 17:04 My amazing week in Bristol The first great thing about Bristol is that you can visit the famous science museum "@ Bristol| ".   And then there is the shopping mall that is really modern and cheap. The family I was staying with was really kind and helpful. The only annoying thing was the CAT because it bit me sometimes.

  • Dmytro Kiriyan | 6 Jan 2011, 20:06 Fantastic Time Bath Sarah Rees I am in England now, in the small city of Bath with Sarah Rees and family. I spent Christmas and New Year here, and the lessons here are very good. Also, I have read a novel called The Cinderella Man.    I was surprised that the people in this street are very friendly - with carol singing. The tours in different places are very interesting and instructive. We've been on long walks and I've already visited Stonehenge and a castle in Wales and SS Great Britain. Also, I've been to lots of different museums, which were really perfect!    It is a pleasure to study with Sarah and I spent a fantastic time here!

  • Olena Konstantynova | 12 Nov 2010, 12:53 Unforgettable weeks My son Petro Konstantynov has spent two unforgettable weeks in Guilford, UK. His teacher Andrew Rees is a very friendly and experienced teacher.   Petro has enjoyed English lessons and what is even more important he understood everything and so his level has increased considerably. I do feel  that his pronunciation has changed a lot and it is much more easier to him to study English at school now.  All sports and evening activities were very interesting and useful as it enabled my son to feel the unique British culture. The dates of the course  gave him the unique possibility to celebrate Halloween with the teacher's family and feel the atmosphere of this holiday.  I do believe that these two weeks were not spent in vain and my son returned home with lots of sunny memories and good command of English.  Thank you LLE and Andrew very much!
