  • I was skeptical at first, as the learning success would proceed in a language school. My expectations were more than fulfilled. The alternative learning methods associated with a lot of fun and success in the classroom have me convinced. I have re-learned basic basics and my English could be significantly improved. The teachers were corrected more than helpful and often have additional work. The social activities during the weekend or during the week were appealing to all age groups. I am even mid-30s and the majority of the students was the early to mid 20, but this combination has never bothered me. On the contrary - this mix was great. Kaplan, one day we will see eachother again :-)

  • As a professional I wanted to combine vacation with learning and took place at Kaplan International the optimal offer, as school bench press makes really fun! The teachers go to the individual character of the students one promote group work and I felt the pace as appropriate. However, I would find appropriate for the K + the student should still be accessible to Internet Platform over the course period.

  • Kaplan is probably the best school in LA to learn English. The teachers are enthusiastic and motivated and do their best to offer a incredibly good teaching.

About the course: It was a unique experience! I made a two-week business English course at Kaplan, as an entry before my internship in Sydney. Great teachers, great learning atmosphere and just a great school! I recommend it to anyone! The host family was great and there were many after-school activities organized by Kaplan.
