"I enjoyed my time in Costa Rica a lot. The school was terrific. I really couldn't have asked for more for the school. The teachers were good, and they did a great job of setting up opportunities to explore the country. I loved the country itself. I found the people extremely friendly (my host family were some of the kindest people I've ever met). I think the only annoying part was some of the American tourists (I'm American myself and am sure was a bit of an annoying tourist too), but other than that, I loved it! -- Gaurab Basu, USA
"My experience in Cuernavaca was something I'll never forget. I still think about it, half of a year later, almost daily. The courses were great and the school beautiful. I learned a lot of Spanish! All in all the organization is well run." -- Sean Telles, USA
"I really enjoyed the time I spent in Seville learning Spanish. The course allowed me to become more confident with verb ending usage. I especially enjoyed the smaller group sessions in the afternoons (Intensive Course); there were 3 students and one teacher and this was a great learning experience. The school was well located and all staff seemed friendly. Also, the computer facilities provided were very useful. My accommodation was adequate and my family were very welcoming. I enjoyed practising my Spanish with the family and felt this aided my learning greatly. I was also very pleased with the central location of my family's home. The food provided by the family was excellent. As with booking things over the internet you can never be 100% sure of the validity of the company and this creates a certain amount of anxiety. However, I felt StudyGlobal were quick to answer any questions therefore setting my mind at rest. I would definitely consider using StudyGlobal in the future and have recommended the company to friends and family. Spain is a beautiful and diverse country that I enjoy visiting. This was my first visit to Seville and I hope to return in the not too distant future. I found the locals very friendly and pleased with my attempts to converse in Spanish. All in all I had a fantastic time but, just wished it could have been longer! Thanks." -- Emily Crosse, UK
"I just wanted to let you know that I had a fabulous time in Buenos Aires, but I learned a lot about Argentine culture and the "culture of medicine" in Argentina. Buenos Aires is truly a beautiful city. My roomate and I, and many of my classmates are still in touch, and probably will be for a long time. Thank you again for helping arrange an unforgettable experience. Muchismas gracias!!"
-- Meera Beharry, Trinidad and Tobago
"I would like to thank you and all StudyGlobal company for your excellent work, especially your San Diego English school department. I have completed 4 weeks English language course in the San Diego school in September 2006. I liked the school so much, all the teachers are real professionals, the studying process is organized very carefully and comfortably for students as well as leisure time activities. I improved my English and got a lot of speaking practice and a lot of unforgettable emotions and impressions about the school and San Diego city. So I would like to complete one more course at your school in New York City." -- Liudmila Ikonnikova, Russia
"I very much enjoyed studying at the Center in Barcelona, and I do have the feeling I learned a lot. From the beginning to the end my enrollment in the course and the course itself, were dealt with in a very speedy and professional manner. My teacher Montse, apart from being a very good and clear teacher, was lively, spunky and always very upbeat, which added so much to the learning experience." -- Katja Put, Belgium
"Thank you so much for helping. Your company was very informative, patient, and helpful with me, and I would recommend any person collaborate with you for their study abroad desires. I owe you a debt of gratitude, and I will forever remember your services. I will soon be a Spanish professor and will tell my future students about your programs. -- Patricia Cates, USA
"Thank you for all your help with my stay in Almuñecar. I had a very good time and I am very satisfied with the school and my host family. I have improved my Spanish. A great deal!!" -- Annika, Sweden
"Thanks for your kind and great help, I am having a good time here. The teachers here are great, and the city of Granada is quite a good size for living and study, not too big and everything is in a walking distance. The curriculum in the school is really excellent, and I think I am learning so much. This is worth spending time here in Spain. Anyway, I really want to thank you, and I am very much looking forward to showing my improvement to my Spanish friends in Mallorca and Barcelona." -- Yumiko, Japan
"I completed the CELTA Certificate at the school in Wellington and enjoyed the course enormously. I learned a great deal, had ample opportunities to practise the skills immediately, and was given feedback that helped to consolidate the process effectively. The tutors were very professional and worked tirelessly to ensure that all went smoothly. I appreciated the teachers at the school who allowed us to observe their lessons - that was a real plus. StudyGlobal was my first contact when I made initial enquiries about CELTA and they handled my questions and subsequent enrolment without incident. Thanks to you all". -- Rachel McCahon, New Zealand
"I have been twice in Antigua, Guatemala to learn Spanish. The school in Antigua is wonderful. Normally they give you their mobile number, so they can help you out 24 hours a day. In the end I've almost been more than 3 months in Antigua. I also traveled through whole Central America without any problem. So don't hesitate to go there. I lost my heart to Guatemala. It is a wonderful place. If you want some more information, don't hesitate to contact me." -- Sylvie Micholt, Belgium
"The program here in Almuñecar, Spain is great and we are having a blast. Well worth it!!! We are also learning a lot in just the short time we have been here!" -- Christian Stuart, USA
"My trip so far has been incredible. I'm really happy to have chosen this school, and really, really happy to have insisted in staying longer at the beach campus. Everyone here seems to find amusing the fact I'm Brazilian and treat me very nicely. Both of my
families and accomodations were fine." -- Claudia Leite, Brazil
"I completed my CELTA teacher training course in Sevilla, Spain, with the extremely friendly and expert assistance of StudyGlobal. The course was very professionally co-ordinated and I learnt a huge amount from the CELTA tutors, staff, other teachers and fellow teacher-trainees. Of vital importance, and what I am particularly grateful for, is the comprehensive information about the course and assistance with accommodation provided to me by StudyGlobal both before and throughout - their willingness and ability to answer all my queries was a great help and enriched my experience greatly, so thank you!" -- Monique Ward, Wellington, New Zealand
"On my way back to France, I would like to thank the school for the successful 2 weeks- English intensive course spent in Portsmouth, thanks first to Emma, Stéphanie, Kevin and Rich and second to my host family Fay and David Jenkinson. I'll always remember their constant dedication, their competence and above all their smiling face wishing all the best for each." -- Salwa Woloch, France

StudyGlobal Press Releases
| 29.4.2009 Eastern Europe becoming more attractive to language course providers
StudyGlobal GmbH is expanding into Czech Republic.
Berlin/Rehlingen, 29.4.2009. StudyGlobal, a worldwide provider of language courses abroad has decided to expand its service to the Czech Republic. Following last year’s successful expansion to Poland, the Berlin office is now the basis for the next step towards new Eastern markets. Since the integration of former Eastern Bloc countries into the EU in 2004 the Czech Republic has seen solid growth. In recent years the high education level attracted many international companies to outsource services. In return the need for language qualification, especially in English, has increased immensely. Therefore StudyGlobal decided to launch a website in Czech by the beginning of 2009. At present already 27 different destinations are offered in Czech language (further are available) including programs to learn English, German, French, Spanish and Chinese. A toll free number has been installed for the Czech customers to deliver the same high quality service as in all other markets in which StudyGlobal is operating. StudyGlobal is a German-Spanish language course provider with offices in Barcelona, Paris and Berlin. While the brand was established in 2000 the first for Profit Company was founded in Germany in 2002. Since then StudyGlobal has established its headquarter in Barcelona and is offering language course programs for Kids, Juniors, Students, Young Professionals, Managers and Best Agers (50+) and all other language enthusiasts in over 60 destinations around the world. The customers have the choice between English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian and Chinese. Following the “Total Immersion” concept the option to be accommodated in host families is offered in all destinations, assuring the most efficient learning environment. Media contact:
