Review about Studio Cambridge - Sir Christopher Summer Camp
I studied at Studio Cambridge Sir Christopher last summer: I took an English course during summer holidays. I chose a program for advanced speakers. On the first day of arrival we passed testing, and I got into a "strong" group: I was happy because my command of English was well, I did not want to start with the very basics.
Studio Cambridge Sir Christopher is part of the famous Cambridge. It's really impossible to resist the charm of these buildings, meadows and forests. It's really good old England.
There were a lot of Asian guys in the group, several Americans, French people. We constantly communicated with each other in English, so the language barrier was lifted for a day on the second, probably. Another bonus: the ear gets used to different accents, so later it becomes easier to communicate with any foreign student, you are already easier to perceive his speech in any case.
I really enjoyed working with SMAPSE. With my trip there were no problems that would have to be solved, but, probably, this is the expression of professionalism: everything is clear, in time. I was pleased with the opportunity to save money on admission: Smapse is working with the partners of Studio Cambridge Sir Christopher, so we did not get a commission.
I can advise the company to others, I was satisfied.
