It was a nice experience. I liked the Douglas's class, because He helped me to overcome the afraid to speak in public. I like to meet people from others countries. The classroom are confortable. Matthew is very kind.

The next day all the needed information was given to me and then the classes started. Our teacher made sure the lessons were never boring, but diversified and entertaining. On the other hand most students didn't respect the rules and kept speaking their native language even if it's wasn't allowed.

As some advice, I have two points for you:
1) Give more importance to the moment when the students leave Kings. I mean, it would be great have a kind of "ceremony" for those students who are leaving, not just give away the diploma and that's it, which is what is currently happening. The learning process and the beautiful experience both deserve a better way of saying goodbye.
2) Differentiate and manage the groups according to the age of the students. Kids and adults don't have the same goal when going to study English in another country.
My experience at Kings Boson was amazing. I really loved my trip. Since the beginning all the staff were always there when I had questions or needed any help. Boston is a beautiful city and you always have something to do there. But maybe the most important thing about my trip was all the people from other countries that I met. To share things with people from other cultures taught me about habits and interesting things that I didn't know. About my homestay, well, I think that is one of the best parts because I could speak in English all the time and the family was amazing. I really loved staying with them. Finally, the only thing that I didn't like was that there were many people from my country (Colombia) and I was expecting not to be with people who talked my language. But in conclusion, I will never forget all the people that I met and all the experiences that I lived in Boston because they have touched my life.

Voir les détails » Lire plus...I liked most of my classes, but not one of my teachers. I had been complaining since the first month that I was there, but nothing really happened until 4 months later. I was NOT the only one complaining, but because of the personal relationship between the boss and the employee, nothing happened. Kings Boston needs to listen to our feedback more than they normally do; the students are your costumers and you always need to make sure that they are happy! The staff also has to tell the students what's going on. There was a situation when one of the students' favorite teachers "decided to leave" all of a sudden. We all got very sad because he left us without saying goodbye, and then we heard that he was fired. The students were very angry about this, and we all wrote down our signature on a piece of paper that said that we wanted him back.
I got called into the office to talk with the head director when she saw my name. I got my explanation, and I could then understand why he was fired, but none of the other students ever did. I gave her advice to go to each class handled by the fired teacher, to tell them all about what happened, but Kings Boston never did. I think it's very wrong, and that makes me think if they care about the students at all.
Apart from that, I liked my 6 months at Kings College. I liked most of my classes, and the way that they taught me. I also liked my housing, and all the activities that happened on campus.
I really had a great time there. I miss those days of just fun and happiness. I had the opportunity to meet people from different nationalities. I even keep in touch with some of them and I'm planning to go and visit them, or I'm inviting others to come and visit my beautiful country. (For example, we had the pleasure to have Amanda in Bogotá!)
I think Kings is not a perfect school, but we need to be realistic and know that in a different country, far from our houses and families, and with a lot of expectations it's hard to find everything wonderful. Of course I complained about some teachers because my parents paid a lot of money to have me there learning and some classes I felt were a waste of time. In the end I knew that it's not just your teachers, and it's not only you. It's a combination. If you have a great teacher and you are a good student the money will be totally worth it! Although, learning is not the only part you enjoy in Boston. For me it was a new experience travelling alone, living alone, meeting people from countries really far from mine.
It's a combination, it's the whole experience that changed my life, changed my point of view. Things started to have more value, my family, my teachers and friends in Boston started to become my Boston family. So, I was complaining there but now I just keep the good memories, the knowledge that I gained there.
Kings could do it better, we always could do it better. You can find better and qualified teachers, you can improve every day. You can help students socialize, make them share time with people who don't share the same language.
Anyway a great experience. I have good memories of my time there, and I will definitely recommend it. Maybe if I were in another school I would say similar things, I don't know, I just know that people there supported me and made me more confident about my skills.
