Sylvia Grima Cyprus
studied Spanish Summer CoursesNot such a great experience
The concept that is being offered by AIP is good. Overall my daughter was safe, learnt some Spanish, made some friends and got to know her way around a new city and these are all positive outcomes.
On a lesser note, the school may pay more attention to the teaching programme. She often felt that she was already familiar with the topics being discussed and the delivery of the classes was also often somewhat dull and hard to engage with.
However, the thing that spoilt my daughter's stay in Valencia was overwhemingly the 'home' experience with her host mother. Unfortunately, the person who was supposedly responsible for welcoming a 16 year old in her home, complained incessantly (that is every meal time) that she was vegetarian, even though this was beforehand stated in the registration papers. She even put meat in one of the dishes and gave it to her. When her friends were offered salad, she had to ask for salad. When she did present vegetarian food, it was in such small amounts that my daughter invariably left hungry. While the other two persons residing with this host family got a fan for the room,she did not. Overall she was openly unfriendly, calling her 'crazy girl' in Spanish and not even engaging with her on a courteous level. As a mother, I was dismayed to hear these stories on her return. You may ask why I did not complain beforehand. Well, apparently, the daughter of the host mother works at the school and although my daughter met and liked this person, it would still have complicated Saskia's stay considerably.

Thank you very much for your feedback, be sure we will keep it in mind for future reference so we can avoid such a situation in the next programs. I want you to know that this host lady is actually the mother of one of our teachers but she has also hosted students for many years with excellent results; we informed her in advance about the fact that your daughter is a vegetarian and she has lots of experience hosting other vegetarian students, so we trusted her judgement.
We are confident she did not mean any disrespect towards your daughter but we will talk to her to make sure she remembers how sometimes the language and cultural barrier can lead to misunderstandings, specially in such young ages.
That said, it is important to note that, if your daughter was uncomfortable with the accommodation assigned, she was free to come to talk to any of our supervisors to elevate a complain or even request a change of host family. Besides, I inform you that all participants in our programs fill two assessment forms, the first one, the first week they arrive to the school, and the 2nd, the last day at the school. We have not seen a complaint of your daugther on theese forms. So, we thougth she was having a good experience with her host mum, as she did not inform us (oral either written) once she was here.
The school takes the students’ concerns very seriously regarding their accommodation since we believe it is the defining factor in the enjoyment (or lack of it) of the whole experience and we treat them with absolute confidentiality; our policy guarantees the change in accommodation in 24 hours for any student asking for it, no matter the reason.
Once again, thank you for taking the time to write your feedback with such a detailed and sincere response and, please, accept our apologies for all the trouble we may have caused your daughter and we are really sorry her experience did not live up to her expectations.

studied General SpanishGreat experience
I took an intensive Spanish language course for two weeks, in order to prepare myself for my internship. The classes were very professional and personal, with the best teachers in town. I met a lot of people within a short amount of time and the activities arranged by the travel agency give the oppotunity to get to know the city very well.

studied General SpanishOpiniones
Ya llevo unos meses como práctica aquí en la escuela. El ambiente laboral es fantástico, los profesores todos super disponibles para ayudar en cualquier ámbito y por cualquier duda. Además, actividades semanales siempre diferentes y chulas, un sitio super limpio, lleno de gente que afronta su trabajo de manera alegra sí pero también muy seria, eso denota la calidad con la que todos trabajan.

I loved the course! The classes where really fun and interesting and the teachers very nice and helpful. And the groups were small which was a big plus. The school is modern and has a very enjoyable atmosphere. Also, is Valencia a great city to live in. I'll recommend the school to everyone who wants to learn spanish in an efficient and fun way!

studied General SpanishWunderbare Sprachschule
Ich habe mich bei AIP Languages sofort wohlgefühlt! Der Unterricht war meinem Sprachniveau genau gerecht und die geringe Anzahl an Schülern hat es mir ermöglicht viel zu lernen. Hatte ich eine Frage, stand mir immer jemand vom AIP Team zu Seite. Ich würde die Schule auf alle Fälle weiterempfehlen!
