À propos Riviera English School
Riviera English School was established in 1996 and is an independent, medium-sized, family-owned school. Most of our students come to us through personal recommendation from others who have studied here. Many students come back to attend our courses year after year.
We are open all year, except for Christmas and New Year. The maximum class size is 12 on adult courses and 16 on the junior courses and ministay. However, the adult average is much fewer, especially in the winter, when typically class numbers will be between 4-8 students. There are four full-time office staff and a varying number of teachers, depending on the time of year. There is a pleasant, friendly atmosphere and visitors will always get a warm welcome.
