SPOKEN AND WRITTEN ENGLISH

General English course has been perfect because I was alone and learned English at the teacher's house. Its location was perfect because it was easy for me to get there. I have done listening, grammar, vocabulary, speaking...
My teacher Hasmik is very profesional. Her way of speaking, her patience and her knowledge of English Didactics have been a gift for me! I have learned a lot. I'm happy for meeting. Thank you for all!

I had English classes at home of my teacher, I could enjoy the culture of India like the food, the customs and my teacher was always like a sister during 2 months that I lived there.
I would have preferred to have a physical book and not digital.

Trying to make it all in one sentence, I'd say that it's not a good way of preparing for IELTS, but it's worth going if you want to get acquainted with India and its culture.
You get a proper accommodation, with all the necessary facilities, food is nice and mostly typical Indian and you get a variety of it. It's possible to plan your leisure time there and ask for a help if you need some because Aii staff provides you with the information and can give you some advice. By the way, Aii sometimes would also come up with ideas on how to spend time which was well-organised and according to your wishes. They provide different activities that you can try.
Speaking about the language course, I expected it to be different. It looked like tutoring rather than professional studies at some educational centre. So if you're looking for a serious IELTS preparation with strict rules, regulations and well-equipped classroom, you try somewhere else! Notwithstanding that most of the time there was no classroom and all the tasks were on the laptop. It was also fun, we had samosas for a lunch break, drank chai and coffee there. And you can still study language there, cause you speak English all the time, although Indians prefer speaking Hindi while communicating, but that's quite obvious if you're in India. And Aii provides other services and volunteer activities besides English teaching, which is not the main course there. Activities are available on their web page. The prices are average, but Aii provide discounts, if you discuss it with them.

Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.

When I decided to go to India it was like an adventure for me. I bought a ticket, got on the plane and my journey started. But when the plane landed I was gripped by fear. “What am I doing?”- I thought- “I don’t know people that going to meet me in airport. I don’t know anybody in this country, what will I do if something goes wrong.” But everything was right!!!
I was met by two friendly guys Rahul and Aplav from “Aii.”
They dropped me to Jaipur to host family.
My host family…I was lucky to meet that wonderful people. They are really awesome people that support me for two months that I have been in India and still now when I’m so far from them.
About study…I forgot to say earlier that reason to go to India was – study English. “Aii” found for me institute where I learn English 6 days a week for 3 hours. It was in a small group just three people including me. The program consisted of 3 parts: writing, speaking, reading. At first it was so difficult for me cause my English was very poor. But in the same time it was very interesting to learn something new every day. After sometime I saw result I became confident. It really was right decision to come here for learning English, because English surrounded me everywhere: at home, in the street, market and of course in English class. It was good practice for me.
About travelling…During first month we (Rahul, Emma, Aplav and me) traveled in different places in India every weekend. Bhangarh, Pushkar, Agra, Mount Abu are places that I have been lucky to visited. Those were so amazing days…
I’m obliged “Aii” for all that they have done for me, for my host family, for all people that I have met, for my teachers, for travelling…
