ECSF was centrally location in San Francisco’s Financial District with a stunning view of the city. The facility was posh and cozy at the same time. The Head, Director of teaching and staff were all so friendly and helpful, which made one felt really welcomed. However, although the morning sessions were somewhat helpful, the afternoon “intensive” classes were not well disciplined, in which several rowdy students dominated the class. The teaching skill of the afternoon teacher was not as effective and not much benefits were reaped.

This is a modern school with prepared and inspiring teachers.

My experience was amazing. To live in SF one month, the climate, food, streets of SF, even to improve my English in different environments not only in academic way.

Great experience. Thank you a lot!

I loved everything about EC English Language, I met good friends from many countries, I had different activities every day, the teachers showed me the city.
The location is perfect. Because the building of EC is in front of the subway, it's really easy to find.
The housing is a little bit far from EC but I was able to adapt, and the family is wonderful, I miss them.
I improved my English more than I expected. Despite the short time that I had been in San Francisco I did many activities.
It was a great experience and I could repeat it.

The week in San Fran was awesome. Even though I already had a considerable amount of English skill, I chose to attend a language course to meet new people and I did stay in touch with them and came back one year later to see them again.

My experience in EC San Francisco was very great! Before I arrive to San Francisco, all of the inscription process was realized. That was cool because I could stay at my homestay and enjoy my travel. All of the classes were dynamic and fun. The homestay was good but my mom in the homestay never cleaned the bedroom. The last day I asked her if I could leave my suitcase one day more because I traveled to Santa Rosa, and she said no, but the way that she told me was very rude, I didn't like that.

Negative moments: 1) I've had troubles with accommodation. We have discussed about hostel for one person in the room and we've arranged for it. But when I've come to SF, there wasn't any room for 1 person - it was really bad for me. 2) I want to have classes for business language and we had an arrangement before that I could for 2 weeks study general English and for the second 2 weeks do business language. But actually the school couldn't give me such an opportunity because there was no business group at that time (no one wanted to study business language in a group with me). You suggested for me to study not in a group, but that costs more money. This error is on the side of the managers who are attracting people for education, so I think you should work more precisely with managers to give them certain information about your possibilities. P.S. I hope I will help you to improve the quality of your education.

I like studying at the EC, both in San Francisco & San Diego. The only problem for me is that none of the schools are offering a proficiency class, even though they say so on the website. But for me everything else was really great, especially the hospitality at the schools.

The school is perfectly located, in the city center. The teachers are really friendly and mostly of them try to organize some activities on their own, out of the school schedule so you can discover places, towns, and villages around SFO with local people. They want to involve you in a great experience that every day allows you enjoy the city and know new people. Unfortunately, I only spent 5 weeks in SFO... Just one recommendation if you are thinking about to go there next summer: take some extra clothes with you because the weather will be colder than you will expect!
