what to expect
Valentina Verardo - visiting student, Summer 2007Have you ever dreamt of studying abroad for a long period of time? ESSS gives you the opportunity to do that!! Last summer I went to England and I stayed there for two weeks. I attended an English course, at Wimbledon School of English (WSE). I studied the language and tried to improve my language skills. It was a pleasant experience because ESSS offered me the chance to meet not only natives, but also other students from all over the world, and to get acquainted with new cultures and habits! Thanks to my short stay in London with ESSS, I have also become more self-confident. It is important to study a foreign language in the place where it is spoken and to be immersed in a culture that speaks the language you are learning. Studying abroad is a life-changing experience, and you can certainly benefit a lot from it! It is very important to catch an opportunity like this!!! So, rely on ESSS! You will be pleased with it!

I was in London in the summer of 2007 for the first time, and attended an intensive English course at Wimbledon School of English (WSE) whilst staying in a host family. ESSS introduced me to the WSE and London as a whole. They told me about the opportunity of studying in London as well as staying in a host family. They told me about the positive feedback of the past experience of other students and depicted the experience as the best for foreigners visiting London...and everything was confirmed during my stay there! Regarding the school I studied English in, I can say that it was the right place to improve your English, meet people of different nationalities and share ideas. Throughout this course, my English improved rapidly, especially my conversation skills. I really enjoyed life here. I thoroughly enjoyed the sightseeing tours we did on the weekends with Yvonne, ESSS's trip organizer. I am very grateful to ESSS for having provided me and the other students with continual support through out our whole stay in London. If you're thinking of coming to England I'm sure you will be pleased with the trip's organization by ESSS. I would highly recommend this. As for me, I can say that it was a pity that the stay lasted just a fortnight, next time I want to stay a little bit longer!

Do you want to see London but you don't know how to organize your stay? Are you afraid you can't find your way out between bookings, payments and reservations? ESSS ltd is here to help you! My experience with them began three years ago when I took part in an activity organized by my Italian High School. It was a two weeks long study holiday in Wimbledon. ESSS ltd organized everything for us: an intensive English course at an excellent school in Wimbledon, activities and excursions during the weekends, packet lunches and anything we needed. Furthermore we were given a telephone number which was available 24h/24 for us to call if we were in trouble. I liked London so much and was so satisfied with my stay that in the following years I went there twice as an individual, always relying on their support. I never got bored even during long stays - up to six weeks: in London there is a lot to see and to do! I think that such an experience is useful for a person's growth as it not only makes you get in touch with other cultures and lifestyles, but it also helps you / allows you to gain a certain independence that you will certainly find useful in your life. I am looking forward to another short stay in Wimbledon next summer. I am currently planning to go to university near London and I am relying on ESSS ltd to get information and advice again. If you want to see London and need someone to organize your stay, not just a bare company, but something more than that... that's the way to go!
