The results exceed my expectations! I decided on a whim to go and study Italian in immersion in Rome. I can't remember how I came to have a look at Language International site, but I will not forget how helpful et efficient was the person (Sem Hoogstrate) who took my case in charge. Everything was clear, not pushy and answered quickly - and in perfect French (my mother tongue!). The results exceeded my expectations. Thanks, Language International, grazie mille, Sem.

Atelier 9- awful had a good service from the agency Language International- they were quick to respond to queries. However, they need to do a little bit more due diligence around the language schools they promote. I attempted to join Aterlier 9 Language school in Paris- their organisation was not appalling, they didn't answer my emails and consequently couldn't change my class. It was also a very strange class from set up, not conducive to learning. Mind you, the teacher I had, even if it was the wrong level for me, was very good.

Not sure this company isn't a hoax or… Not sure this company isn't a hoax or fraud. Ive been trying for almost a month to get information about LI's June Spanish program in Oviedo Spain. After 2 weeks I got a reply from "Iliana" with basic info and requesting information about my wife and me. I answered immediately, but a week later I got no response. When I sent a complaint to the "info@" email address, 10 minutes later I got the same email from Iliana!! I have repeatedly called the Oviedo number of the so-called "Oviedo Academy of Spanish" and got no answer or the ability to leave a message. I repeatedly called the LI U.S. number in Cambridge Mass, and got sent to an answer machine. So far no answers. I know LI is an aggregator, but something smells very fishy about this set-up. Thank goodness I didn't pay any money yet. Maybe the Oviedo business alliance should look into this. Bob New Orleans

Good school in Puerto Vallarta I thoroughly enjoyed my one week private classes at the Spanish Experience Center in Puerto Vallarta. The staff we terrific and welcoming. With private lessons, I worked with them to craft lessons at my level. I shared a wonderful lunch with other students who also seemed to be enjoying the school and the challenge to learn a new language. The communication with Language International was great and they answered all my questions. As with any language school, you get out of it what you put into it, so be prepared to work hard, have an exhausted brain at the end of the day, and have some fun along the way.

I highly recommend "A door to Italy". I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in Genoa while studying Italian with "A door to Italy". I found the staff to be helpful and caring while always available to answer my questions or inquiries. The same could be said about my teacher who was able to provide challenging course materials which allowed to progress out of my comfort zone. I am glad to be able to share this and would naturally recommend anyone wishing to learn Italian to give "A door to Italy" a try. Thanks!
