Solo puedo recomendar su escuela a cualquier alumno o padre que busque un buen lugar para que sus hijos aprendan inglés!
Summer English School Melton College York — language school in the UK137 Holgate Rd, York YO24 4DH, United Kingdom
3 cursos de verano me proporcionaron un conocimiento tan fantástico que pude leer y estudiar literatura científica sin necesidad de más formación en idiomas o vocabulario cuando empecé en la facultad de medicina. Esto es algo que el dinero simplemente no puede comprar. El entrenamiento de conversación fue lo que más me gustó durante los días de 8 horas como estudiante y todavía hoy disfruto hablando con mis colegas en inglés, aunque descubrí que hay cientos de formas de hablar inglés. Veo que mantiene los altos estándares y me gustaría felicitarlo por 50 años de excelente educación en idioma inglés.
Me gustaría agradecerles una vez más, Melton College, me ayudaron a amar su idioma aún hoy. Solo puedo recomendar su escuela a cualquier alumno o padre que busque un buen lugar para que sus hijos aprendan inglés. Si tuviera hijos, este sería el lugar para ir.
Gracias una vez más.

Adoraba a mi casa de familia!

Mi primer viaje al extranjero todo "por mi cuenta". Tenía 15 años... Adoraba a mi casa de familia. La Sra. y el Sr. Forth y sus dos hijas: Theresa y Margaret... La Sra. Forth era una auténtica cocinera... ¡Me preparó el mejor Yorkshire Pudding y la mejor mermelada de fresas y ruibarbo de toda mi vida! Los miércoles teníamos práctica de coro en el Melton College... Recuerdo las risitas... Una vez a la semana íbamos de viaje... Bonitos recuerdos...

¡Tengo muy buenos recuerdos de Melton!
Summer English School Melton College York — language school in the UK137 Holgate Rd, York YO24 4DH, United Kingdom
He estado allí 2 veranos. ¡Tengo muy buenos recuerdos de Melton y de mis primeros pasos en el gran mundo! Tenía casi 17 años y nunca había estado tanto tiempo fuera de casa. Se siente como si fuera el momento en que comenzó mi vida adulta. Me encantaron las clases y recuerdo especialmente al señor Sanderson (el mejor profesor del mundo). Mi inglés no era muy bueno en ese momento y la primera vez mis padres me enviaron allí. La segunda vez les rogué que regresaran. Después del último verano allí, comencé a estudiar psicología. Muchas de las obras que tuve que leer y estudiar estaban en inglés. No tuve problema en entenderlos. ¡También me enamoré por completo de York! Volveré a visitar York el próximo verano y seguro que volveré a dar un paseo, como hace tantos años, desde el centro hasta la escuela. Tengo mucha curiosidad por ver si todavía se ve igual.

Es el lugar ideal para estudiar inglés. ¡Los profesores y su programa académico están fuera de este mundo! me ayudaron mucho y me hicieron sentir bastante seguro para usar lo que aprendí allí. ¿Mi alojamiento en casa de familia? bueno, en pocas palabras; ¡excelente!. me hizo sentir como en casa.

How can I book a trip?

- The minimum group size is 5 children
- The group leader travels for free
- The larger the group, the cheaper everyone's trip
3. Check that you have marked the transfer, visa, insurance.
4. Select at once additional excursions that you would like to visit for the whole group.
