studied General EnglishInformalidad
Contratamos un curso de dos semanas para un adulto y un niño en esta escuela en Dublín para el mes de agosto de 2022.
Contratamos unas fechas y un lugar para el curso. Reservamos apartamento (que no es barato en Dublín) cerca del lugar de las clases. Una vez pagado el adelanto y recibida la confirmación con la firma de la dirección de la escuela, compramos los billetes de avión.
Semanas más tarde nos informan de que han cambiado el lugar donde se darán las clases (fuera de Dublín) y ¡las fechas!.
La firma de la dirección es papel mojado; cambian las condiciones a las que se han comprometido.
Escuela de una gran informalidad: deja a los estudiantes tirados con los billetes comprados y a estas alturas sin posibilidad de reservar otras escuelas.
No la recomendamos en absoluto
