“Hi Edel, Karen & CSS team, Apologies I meant to message you all sooner. Thank you for the report card. I love to have some feedback on Andrea’s progress during her month in Valencia. I can’t begin to explain how beneficial this course has been for Andrea. Karen, you were fantastic in being so helpful in making it a possibility. You found a lovely family for her (Manuel & Miriam) and she settled in so well. Since she has come home, she’s enthusiastic to continue Spanish for the LC. Thank you all again from the bottom of our hearts & all the best for the rest of the summer. PS I will be recommending CSS to others. Take care”

“Dear Edel, I really cannot thank you all enough, it’s been the most incredible experience for Anna from start to finish. She has enjoyed every moment. Her family have been extra special, they really made her feel like one of the family. She’s made some fab new friends. She really enjoyed all the Spanish lessons, loved that it was centered around the LC curriculum, which for me when doing the research was a huge bonus. The activities were exceptional, variety and fun, she loved them all. As a parent, I’m over the moon to have found such an exceptional experience and company like yourselves. So efficient, so organised, so well managed and so kind and friendly with it – a rare diamond. So huge well done to you all, as it’s been an absolutely outstanding experience.
I’d say Anna would love to do the Summer program next year too. One way or the other, we’ll be back for sure. Muchas gracias a todos ustedes Edel, Sol, Vera, Irene, Valli, Claudia & Leila. Also just compared to other companies, I loved that you were keeping them so busy with activities and that you had strict 10pm curfews and only two permission slips allowed per week. I know of other programs where there is a lot of free time, incredibly late curfews and as a result, a lot of messing goes on. It’s a great selling point in my opinion and worked so well.”
