Feedback from Austria

Angie was very lucky to get a fantastic 2 week Heritage-English-experience this August (see photo on departure).

Picking up our daughter in Milford-on-Sea at the end of her stay, we had the great pleasure to get to know most of the members of the teaching and host-families team for a short while and we were able to say thank you face-to-face.

Now that we are back we can’t help but recommend Heritage English for its excellence!

In Austria a proverb is saying:

Only good ingredients make a good cake!

At Heritage English we got the best piece of “educational” cake ever tasted!

Tell you why:

-there is a top recipe

· the total immersion concept:
· fully individualized to student/client needs, no matter what age, aim or level;
· combination of tailor-made formal one-to-one instruction with informal leisure activities for conversation purpose;
· means: thinking, speaking, hearing and even dreaming 24hours a day in the English language

-there are top ingredients:

highly educated, competent and friendly teachers;
a pool of selected, dedicated and caring premium-host families,
a wonderful landscape with a lot of leisure opportunities


-and of course top cooks knowing how to bake the cake:

excellent information/counselling work,
online assessment of level and personal issues to design an individualized program in advance,
sensibility for perfect matching the host families/accommodation, making familiar teachers and hosts to the learner through encouragement to communicate long before arrival, shown interest in the person’s needs, warm welcome and facilitation to the new situation;
effective, intensive and varying teaching techniques,
perfect organization and teamwork with the hosts
integrated, interesting leisure activities,
an absolutely detailed report on progress
daily activities recorded as well as suggestions for further progress;
serious follow up/continuous counselling after departure…

Angelika was able to make a substantial progress, while having fun and making friends.

Nothing could have worked better! Time and money couldn’t have been better invested!

Congratulations and honest thanks and of course best regards to the whole team!

"Thank you so much for your kind comments. It was a pleasure to know you all this summer. We hope to see you again next year.
Sorry, but we couldn't upload your photo onto this blog, for some strange reason!"
