Too much Arab students in the School at Cape town branch and in class as well.
If you come to study English you well study arabic instead.
I sent to your email on 9th of August 2025 but you have not responded.
I think you just writting on the webcit
you do any actions.
If you really consider about experiences you should do some action like adopt new Policies or hire new staffs.
If you really serious about reviewing.
I will Provide you all issue I have mentioned on my review
I have been studying at EC in Cape town for 6 months in 2023.
There are several problems at the school.
About problems.
1- a lot of students and just a few employees
Therefore, employees don't have much time to handle requests and requirements of the students.
Moreover, some classrooms are too small for 15 or even 10 students more noises from other classes that if they turn on the recording you couldn't probably hear the teacher in your class.
2- numbers of arabic students are a lot maybe 70 or 80 percant of the students particularly in low levels classes so, most of speaks arabic in the class and teachers do not have authority to ask them to leave the class if they keep speaking other
language than English in the class.
Unlike,Goodhope school they have limits of arabic students in school and in the school as well.
3- the place where you do Engilsh test that measure you English level for students it is in carridor near classrooms I can't mention how is that annoying 10 or 15 students are walking ,speaking and laughing around you when doing English test for example, they ask my to do the placement test in the break time that was worse time ever I couldn't focus on the test.
4- about teachers, there is excellent teachers , good and not good enough
It depends on English class that you are attend some of them has more experience then others and some teacher could easily miss your homework or take one week to correct it like teacher Stephen.
5- placement test is different from what you study even if you attend all class through two months is going to allow you to succeed high marks in placement test and I think to have one placement test per a month is unsuitable.
6- teachers don not have a clue about test questions so, they can not prepare you for the test and some teachers ask you to pay them coffee for recommendations.
There is a teacher name is John can push you to next level without taking the placement test and others can not
And I have spook e to the manger Tareq he just ignore it.
The language course was useful for me because it kept my attention throughout, the lessons were interactive, and the teachers made sure that everyone understood the tasks. Overall, I found it beneficial and left the course with very positive experiences.
I attended a short refresher course on 2025 May in Bristol (UK). It was an excellent experience, the location of the school is very convenient, the organisation of the courses is very good, and I would like to highlight the teachers and their effort to teach dynamic classes.
It was amazing being part of the EC family. EC London is a wonderful place to learn English and to make friends. I was afraid of not making friends but everyone at EC, even the Staff Team, were really nice.
I can only say that the apartments rented out by this school absolutely do not meet hygiene standards. They are dirty, unhygienic, and filthy. It’s all about the money; the rental operation is obviously driven solely by profit. Especially the single rooms in Mercury Residence, which have no windows, are in a catastrophic condition. It’s an act of selfishness to house people in such conditions just to make money. This is an insult to the residents who live there and spend their money.
Additionally, the Campus Hub is just as dirty. The cleaning staff are not even slightly committed to keeping it clean and hygienic.
The people were very welcome, you can have a great time here. I was studying English in Malta for a week, and after improving my English, I went return to Hungary, and got a better position in my job.
È stata una bellissima esperienza. La scuola è organizzata molto bene e gli insegnanti sono fantastici. In particolare devo ringraziare Filip che ha reso ogni giorno e ogni lezione, un’esperienza bella ed interessante. Grazie!

I attended a refresher course on February 2025 and really liked the concept of the school: in particular I appreciated the fact it is also customized for "old" students like me. All the staff and the teachers were very good, flexible, helpful and friendly. I found a perfect organization and learned something new that I will use in my job. And Dublin is amazing, too.
I loved Miriam's ideas of things to do, I loved the teachers, I loved the donuts day, the place where the school was, I loved the city and the things to do there
The care for their students it's great, every doubt you can have in the classroom or even with the teachers outside of the class you know they will help you. The staff is very kind and always ready to answer your questions.
I stayed in Dublin for 2 weeks attending a course at EC to improve my English. I'm 65 and my worries were to feel like an outsider in a school with young students...but I was surprised to be in a class with a lot of adult students, coming from all around the world. It was very comfortable to study with people who, like me, wanted to improve our language not only for jobs but also for ourselves.
I felt very well with the teachers and all the staff, enjoying activities and having fun with my classmates. My only regret was to have been there for a short time . I have to come back again!
The experience of doing EC in Cape Town was incredible! The team is great, starting with Patrick and Guido at reception, who are always friendly and efficient. The classes were great and being able to interact with different teachers, with different accents and methods, helped a lot.
I would definitely recommend the school to anyone who wants to improve their English and still have a great experience in Cape Town, which is an incredible city.
Hello,
my last stay in London at your school was great. In all points I can give you five stars:
-Inspiring and motivating teacher
-good lessons
-helpfully and friendly assistance at the reception
-well organized social programs
-friendly and good hosts
Thanks for all

I was in EC a few months ago and it was the best experience in my life. All the people were so welcome and nice. I improved a lot during my stay there. I met a lot of people, who are incredible and lovely. I felt more confident because I felt secure to speak in English and speak more fluently. So, if I were you, I improve my English with EC English Language Centres.
Amazing School in Malta !
The Teachers was very professionnel and my level just for 6 weeks is totally different !
Now, i inderstand all conversations but now i need to practice because here in France is difficult When you want to talk !
EC School thank you so much for all !
