More Than English international summer school for ambitious students 11-17 years old (July-August 2020)

Alejandra Reyes review

Campus:

It is a really big, open place full of greenery. I think the landscape is great.

Accommodation:

My bedroom was huge. I shared with 4 other girls. 2 of them were Italian and they usually spoke in Italian. Anyway it was nice.

Food:

I love any kind of food and the chef made some Italian food, Indian food and English food which was good. Also if you were vegan or vegetarian they made special food for you.

Core English:

The teacher was nice. They wanted you to improve your skills and they always motivated the students.

Get Ahead:

I chose Shakespeare as my extra study option. In class we read Macbeth and made a prediction about what was going to happen in the story.

International Experience:

There was a mix of nationalities. I met people from Brazil, Mexico, Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Italy, France, Spain, Czech Republic, Croatia, Poland and Thailand!

Special Features:

Activities and trips were good. You have so many options, you can do almost anything! Ok I’m over exaggerating but it was very good!

All in all:

It was my second year and I feel it was even better. I want to keep growing and trying new things.

Campus

More Than English is situated in Moor Park, Ludlow. I think it is one of the best locations because you have a lot of places for different activities. The rooms are big enough and the the beds are comfortable. The campus looks like a castle! What I really liked was your room has a nice view of the English landscape.

Core English

What is very important when you go to a summer school is the teaching. I liked the fact that teachers are always ready to help you. In the lessons we spoke a lot, learnt new vocabulary and listened. The teachers made sure you understood everything. So if you want to improve your English skills, I think More Than English has a lot of variety.

Get Ahead

What I really enjoyed here was that the pupils have an opportunity to choose what they want to do. You can play tennis, football, gold, dance or do a speech-making group, PET group or make a film. It is really exciting.

International Experience

I couldn’t believe that there were so many nationalities from all over the world. Besides, a lot of people have a good level of English so you can easily speak with them. It was really interesting to be present at International Night. You could try food from different countries, especially Mexican and Brazilian sweets.

Food

There are different types of food. You can try dishes from different countries, for example, we ate lasagne and pasta. But honestly speaking, I didn’t like it that much.

Giselle Morales Review

Campus

It’s a very big and beautiful place so you can do everything. There is a swimming pool and a lot of grass where you can play sports.

Accommodation

I really liked my bedroom! It has a big window and you can see the garden. I shared with 4 other students and the house parents were awesome. I think the problem was, there were too many meetings and not enough showers, but I liked the space in my bedroom.

Food

The food was ok but it was too spicy and you need to add more salt. Also all the desserts had raisins inside. There were lots of good food though like hamburgers or lasagne/

Core English

We did something different every class, like making country for a trip and a lot more things.

Teachers and Staff

They work really hard for you to make sure you have a good time. They are well organised and were easy to get on with

Activities

I had a lot of fun practising English at the same time. Also I never did the same thing unless I wanted to.

Trips

The trips were awesome and the staff made sure you were ok by following the rules. Sadly you have to come back to campus!

Personally I think that More Than English is awesome even with all the cons, you will make new friends, learn new things and have a lot of fun.

To conclude I recommend More Than English because it will expand the way you see the world. The teachers and staff do a brat job so make an effort to learn, have fun and make new friends.

It was such a great experience for my daughter to be in Ludlow. She learned English , visited England, met new friends. We always felt that she was in a safe place and well looked after.

Milana spent two fantastic weeks at More than English summer camp in July 2019. It was her first trip to UK. Words could hardly describe how happy she was being at this camp. Great English classes were combined with amazing activities and excursions. Staff, food, facilities let alone the location exceeded all our expectations. We highly recommend this camp, because it has great atmosphere and kids improve their English fluency.

Review

My name is Amy, I am 13 years old, from China. I am staying in this summer school for three weeks.At first I must say I am a little scared before I came to this summer school. I knew I am the only Chinese student in this summer school, in total we've got 65 students in the first and second week , a big group. but after a few days I felt this is a very nice place ,all the students are really friendly. Just thought we are not a big group of students , we are a big "family" . After one week , some students are leaving we are all really sad , crying and thinking about the past....
The air is very fresh here , many trees , and the school is really big,”huge". we got a very big playground , we can play golf right here because we got a very big place .
We have a lots of activities right here,we have get a head options. For my first week I got creative writing, my second week was golf and my last week was film making .
I haven't done any golf before, I don't really interested in golf, but after I got one lesson,I thought ,emm...... I like it. It was really good.The teacher was really kind ,his name is Dan, he was very patience. I must say ALL THE TEACHERS in this MORE THAN ENGLISH are amazing!
Also we got afternoon activities , every day is different, it was really fun ! It made students relationship better.
For Saturday and Sunday, we got lots to do , I went to London , Manchester, and pool river , it all were really good trip. Staff took us to many nice places .And you have some shopping time and free time .
For English lessons we got many lovely teachers , My teacher's name is Ian he is a very nice, kind man. He taught us a lot. And it was a really good time . In his class was not boring , it was really fun , we played some games and we learned a lot in those games, and sometimes we did role play ,it practise our confident and our pronunciation .iIt helps a lot !!
MORE THAN ENGLISH is a international summer school it is really good , because you can can meet a lot of people from many countries , and make a lots of friends , and you can learn a lot about their country. Because we got INTERNATIONAL NIGHT students share information about their countries.
The most important thing is : YOU WILL NEVER FELL BORED IN MORE THAN ENGLISH!!! you will always have something to do .
(If there is any mistakes please ignore it .....)
THAT’S ALL THANK YOU !!!!!!

Magdalena\'s review

The Campus is really nice! It has got many attractions, like swimming pool, a tennis court, football pitch or small lake behind campus. It has got a really big field where lots of activities took place.

Accommodation: My bedroom is great and it has got also a name, it”s Calle ,,Madison”. For the first week I was sharing this room with 5 others girls, but in the second, only with three. Everybody here is very kind. When you are new, many of students will wanna talk with you about your country, hobbies…

Food: For breakfast there are usually the same things, like toast, cornflakes, milk… But lunch and dinner are different. I love this place for their desserts! They are amazing! What is very nice, that they are usually for every meal.

Core English Lessons: Lessons here are very interesting. My teacher was very funny and my lessons were full of laughter. You can learn here many of nw vocabulary, and information about grammar too.

Get Ahead Lessons: For the first week I played tennis, but for the second I chose film. If you want to change your lessons, there is no problem with this, but you must ask your houseparents.

All In All: I went here to improve my English and now I think that I am ready for my school. Thank you so much!!!

CAMPUS: The campus is excellent.The field where we can hang out is very big.There are gardens, a swimming pool, tennis courts, football and rugby pitches… You can even play golf there!

ACCOMMODATION: I share my room with five girls who are from different countries.It is good because it is big enough and also you have chance to practise your English. Adding to that I like my houseparents but they are a little bit strict.

FOOD: For breakfast we have some options: toasts, cereal, cakes, bacon, milk, juices… For dinner and lunch, everyday they cook different meals and they all taste good. I love the dishes and thanks to our chef we can eat them because he cooks dishes from other countries too.

ENGLISH LESSONS: I like our lessons.This is a result of having a nice teacher. We learn new phrases, words without being bored. Also the content of the lessons help us improve our English.

GET AHEAD LESSONS: For my first and second weeks I chose “Shakespeare”. For this club we are with David and he makes the literature fun. We read one of the plays of Shakespeare:Macbeth, and we had a discussion on it. We have so many options for Get Ahead Lessons such as drama, golf, tennis, dance.. and we can change them per week.

INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE: There are a lot of people from all over the world so you can make international friendships. Moreover you have to speak in English to talk with them and it leads us to develop our language.

ALL IN ALL: The thing I like most of this college is the people.All of them are very nice. I am very pleased to have come here. Thank you.
