EF Barcelona

Loved my stay in Barcelona: the campus was really nice, all the staff were really friendly and the teachers were amazing! Made so many unforgettable memories and got to know so many people from around the world, this definitely was one of my favourite holidays ever and would highly recommend!

It has not been what we expected..

It has not been what we expected... we have lost a day to do a one-hour hike and another boat ride. The monitors have not explained anything. Yesterday we did the one in North Wales and it was wonderful. Nothing to do with today, I've lost a day

Fantastic experience

I had an incredible time at EF Nice! 🌟 The atmosphere was great from start to finish. The activities were really fun, especially thanks to the staff members who led them with lots of humor and energy. We were never bored, and every trip became a memorable experience.
I also learned a great deal from the teachers, who made learning French enjoyable and motivating. The classes were dynamic, interactive, and always interesting. They encouraged participation and took the time to explain things clearly, which helped me make rapid progress.
I especially enjoyed the enriching and varied discussions in our class. Talking with other students from different cultures made every conversation fascinating and open-minded. It was a great way to improve my French while discovering new perspectives.
In short, it was a fantastic experience that I highly recommend: great teachers, awesome activities, a friendly atmosphere, and lots of progress in French. I am more than grateful for these unforgettable memories!
