  THİNK TWİCE BEFORE CHIISİNG KAPLAN LİVERPOOL LANGUAGE SCHOOLS I came to Kaplan Liverpool on 5 March for business English. I've had a lot of disappointments here, and I want to share the last one. I'm in the morning group. Today, an official came and said that our class will continue in the afternoon. She stated that if we objected to this situation, we could move to one of the general English classes in the morning group. Frankly, they do not offer any other option and impose this practice on us. 1: I came here to learn business English in the morning group and while I was using my afternoons effectively by studying and going to the library, now I am asked to come to the course in the afternoons and this is imposed on me. 2: When we want to claim our rights, we cannot make any claims. 3: I came here from Turkey through a company called “Global Vision”, they gave me completely incomplete information and when I talked to them today, they said they had nothing to do. 4: I was completely victimized and all my concentration in learning English was destroyed.5 I call out to everyone who knows the value of their money and time. If you are going to choose Kaplan to learn a language, I say think again because there is no quality and respect for people.

  (Translated by Google) Letter of rejection of the teaching provided When I arrived at the school, I carried out a leveling assessment, indicating the Elementary level, but when I participated in the class, I noticed that the content that the teacher presented, I already had the knowledge, every week I warned her about it, but the only her argument would be that I should wait 5 weeks to be able to take another test (an addendum: on the day I took the test she was nervous because I had gotten lost in the city, I could not pay due attention, but this delayed me by five weeks , because I had no use) In addition to this situation, the didactic means were not at all what I expected, she just read the handout, asked us to do the activity without giving explanations of the content, there was no guided conversation, I say this, because what was talked about in class was more among the students, almost not having any indication from the teacher if I was right or wrong when I was trying to communicate with my classmates, especially when I was pronouncing a few words, because normally she asked everyone to speak together, I kept asking myself how the students would check themselves. In addition, there were 22 people in my classroom, and it was expected to have classes with a completely reduced number, and this increase in members was something significant for several distractions, games and parallel conversations without foundation to the class, which ends up disturbing others who really wanted to learn, and unfortunately Kaplan took a long time to take action and this only happened because there were several students who were at the wrong level, it was a lower level, Kaplan offers this service, but it did not have a room or a teacher to be able to answer them. Several times the teacher did not attend the class, and Kaplan's measure was to combine classes with different levels and it also happened on a specific day that there was no teacher to teach and the students ended up leaving, until the moment when she resigned , something that people already imagined would happen because she always said that she liked to teach children and also because of her constant absences. After the fifth week I took the new test and was successful, after this level change, I had an excellent teacher, totally didactic, who taught student by student with a totally personalized teaching, with games, complementary activities, careful explanations and even visit to the museum, and after two weeks (but unfortunately my last one in Liverpool) he called me to talk and said that I could now take the new test to be able to advance in level, since there were several students who had already been there longer in Lower Intermediate and they were not called to have this conversation, that is, the professor believed that I would have more potential for the due change of level, I was happy and anguished because I felt that I lost six weeks and only enjoyed two. (Original) Carta de repúdio ao ensino fornecido Quando cheguei na escola, realizei uma avaliação de nivelamento, indicando ao nível Elementary, porém quando participei da aula, notei que o conteúdo que a professora apresentava, eu já possuía o conhecimento, em todas as semanas eu a alertava sobre isso, porém o único argumento dela, seria que eu deveria aguardar 5 semanas para poder realizar outro teste (um adendo: no dia em que eu realizei o teste está nervosa pois tinha me perdido na cidade, não consegui prestar a devida atenção, porém isto me atrasou em cinco semanas, pois nao tive aproveitamento algum) Além desta situação, os meios didáticos não foi nada o que eu esperava, ela só lia a apostila, pedia para fazermos atividade sem dar explicações do conteúdo, não existia conversação guiada, digo isto, pois o que era conversado em classe era mais entre os alunos, quase não possuindo alguma indicação da professora se estava certo ou errado no momento que estava tentando me comunicar com os colegas de classe, principalmente no momento de pronunciar algumas palavras, pois normalmente ela pedia para todos falarem juntos, eu ficava me perguntando como os alunos iriam se verificar. Além do mais, na minha sala havia 22 pessoas, sendo que o esperado era ter aulas com um número totalmente reduzido, sendo que esse aumento de integrantes foi algo expressivo para que ocorresse várias distrações, brincadeiras e conversas paralelas sem fundamento a aula, que acaba atrapalhando aos demais que realmente estavam querendo aprender, e infelizmente a Kaplan demorou muito tempo para tomar providências e isto só aconteceu pois havia diversos alunos que estavam em nível errado, era um nível inferior, a Kaplan oferece este serviço, porém não possuía sala nem professor para poder atende-los. Diversos momentos a professora não compareceu a aula, e a providência da Kaplan foi juntar salas com nivelamentos diferentes e ocorreu também em um dia específico que não teve professor algum para dar aula e os alunos acabaram indo embora, até o momento em que ela pediu demissão, algo que as pessoas já imaginavam que iria acontecer pois ela sempre dizia que gostava de ensinar crianças e também pelas constantes faltas. Após a quinta semana eu fiz a nova prova e obtive êxito, após essa mudança de nível, tive um excelente professor, totalmente didático, que ensinava aluno por aluno com um ensino totalmente personalizado, com jogos, atividades complementares, cuidado nas explicações e até mesmo visita ao museu, e após duas semanas, (porém infelizmente a minha última em Liverpool) ele me chamou para conversar e disse que eu já poderia fazer o novo teste para poder avançar de nível, sendo que tinha diversos alunos que já estavam a mais tempo no Lower intermediate e não foram chamados para ter essa conversa, ou seja, o professor acreditava que eu teria mais potencial para a devida mudança de nível, fiquei feliz e angustiada pois senti que perdi seis semanas e aproveitei apenas duas.

  (Translated by Google) Very bad experience kaplam liverpool They have a very bad administration (management) You must go chasing for more than 15 days so that they solve the problems that they themselves generate due to the breach of what they promise. 1. It is important that you arrive already knowing English... (understanding and speaking) Because they put you in rooms with people who come from other countries and already know the language. From there, the fight begins with the administrative part so that they place you in a room according to your level and you lose up to 15 days chasing the managers "" who only go to the branch every 8 days. 2. The halls have up to more than 20 people. You must go out and fight with the managers so that they solve this problem that their bad administration generates. 3. Kaplam liverpool sells you a dream... which is very expensive. They don't care if you learn or not. They only care about billing. 4. Some teachers get annoyed when you ask them to slow down. Or are they only interested in playing in class? They do not have anything prepared for it, and there are others that are only based on a book. 5. If you are at a basic level. I do not recommend kaplam liverpool.. 6. They are very good at organizing outings and trips every week and weekends They go to salons to advertise, they post it on billboards, they send emails. They promote bars every Thursday and the result of this is that students don't go to class on Fridays. But they do not worry about the student learning and that their investment is remunerated 7. Classes are heavily disrupted by latecomers and there are NO chairs While they go looking for a place you lose time. 8. If you lose an hour because of something that has happened, they want to charge you for it and it is very expensive. But the teachers are missing and they don't get your class back. They join you with another group where you only affect that room and its students. And in the end when you want to claim for the guarantee they are rude. And they do not comply with anything. I speak from my experience for 3 months that I was studying and it hurt me to lose money. Many people just remain silent, but it is important that before making this expense, whether it is for you or your children, they know the reality of what is happening in kaplam liverpool. And many more things that you hear from other students from their homes where they are placed. And thousands of cases or problems that people do not dare to write. (Original) Muy mala experiencia kaplam liverpool Tienen una muy mala administración (gerencia) Debes tu andar persiguiendo por más de 15 días para que te solucionen los problemas que ellos mismos generan por el incumplimiento de lo que prometen. 1. Es importante que llegues ya sabiendo ingles.. ( entendiendo y hablando ) Porque te ubican en salones con personas que vienen de otros países y ya conocen el idioma. A partir de ahí arranca la pelea con la parte administrativa para que te ubiquen en un salón acorde a tu nivel y pierdes hasta 15 días persiguiendo las gerentes "" que no van si no cada 8 días a la sucursal. 2. Los salones tienen hasta más de 20 personas. Debes salir a pelear con las gerentes para que solucionen este problema que su mala administración genera. 3. Kaplam liverpool te vende un sueño.. que es muy costoso. A ellos no les importa si tu aprendes o no. Solo les interesa facturar. 4. Algunos profesores se molestan por que le pides que hable más despacio O solo les interesa es jugar en clase.. No llevan nada preparado para la misma, y hay otros que solo se basan en un libro. 5. Si estas en un nivel básico. No te recomiendo kaplam liverpool.. 6. Son muy buenos para armar salidas y viajes cada semana y findes Van a los salones a publicitar, lo publican en carteleras, mandan correos. Promocionan bares todos los jueves y el resultado de esto es que los alumnos los viernes no van a clases. Pero no se preocupan por que el estudiante aprenda y que su inversión sea remunerada 7. Las clases son muy interrumpidas por estudiantes que llegan tarde y NO hay sillas Mientras van a buscar un lugar vas perdiendo tiempo. 8. Si pierdes una hora por algo que haya pasado te la quieren cobrar y es muy costosa. Pero los profesores faltan y no te recuperan la clase.. te unen con otro grupo donde solo afectas ese salón y sus estudiantes. Y al final cuando quieres reclamar por la garantía son groseras. Y no te cumplen con nada. Hablo desde mi experiencia por 3 meses que estuve estudiando y me dolió perder el dinero. Muchas personas solo se quedan callados pero es importante que antes de realizar ese gasto ya sea para uds o sus hijos sepan la realidad de lo que pasa en kaplam liverpool. Y muchas cosas más que escuchas a otros estudiantes de sus hogares donde los ubican. Y miles de casos o problemas que las personas no se atreven a escribir.

  (Translated by Google) Make sure your dream of Living an Interchange does not turn into a nightmare. - Room with more than 20 students - There is no 30+ class for Elementary and Beginner Levels - Difficulty solving any problem. Staff service leaves much to be desired. Our Elementary class grew to more than 20 students in the classroom, with Kaplan's teaching philosophy being an average of 12-15 per class. The teacher could not control the class, probably due to the excess of students. Every day more and more students arrived and we had to have classes at the Study Center to fit them all. We sat at round tables, uncomfortable positions to see the picture. There was a larger room free, but there was a problem with the interactive whiteboard. There is no 30+ class for Elementary and Beginner levels. Complicated situation because I chose exactly this school for offering this option. I managed to talk to the Main Coordinator, it's almost a mission to win the lottery. The Coordinator is at school only 1 or 2 days a week, sometimes she doesn't show up for weeks. I missed 4 weeks of school, causing stress and emotional damage. I was at the wrong level and they didn't offer a solution, simply because my correct level didn't exist. Perhaps these are specific problems at this Kaplan Liverpool Unit. Feeling that Kaplan doesn't care much about Beginner Levels, maybe the other levels are better, but I can only speak from my experience. (Original) Cuidado para seu sonho de Viver um Intercâmbio não se transforme em pesadelo. - Sala com mais de 20 alunos - Não existe turma 30+ para o Nível Elementary e Begginer - Dificuldade para solucionar qualquer problema. O atendimento da equipe deixa a desejar. Nossa turma Elementary chegou a ter mais de 20 estudantes na sala de aula, sendo que a filosofia de ensino da Kaplan são de 12 a 15 por classe em média. A professora não conseguia ter controle sobre a turma, provavelmente pelo excesso de alunos. A cada dia chegava mais e mais alunos e tivemos que ter aula no Centro de Estudos para caber todos. Ficamos em mesas redondas, posições desconfortáveis para enxergar o quadro. Tinha uma sala maior livre, mas estava com problema no quadro interativo. Não existe turma 30+ para os níveis Elementary e Begginer. Complicada situação porque escolhi exatamente essa escola por oferecer esta opção. Consegui conversar com a Coordenadora Principal, é quase uma missão de ganhar na loteria. A Coordenadora esta na escola apenas 1 ou 2 dias por semana, às vezes fica semanas sem aparecer. Perdi 4 semanas de aula, gerando stress e danos emocionais. Estava no nível errado e não apresentaram solução, simplesmente porque não existia o meu nível correto. Talvez sejam problemas pontuais desta Unidade Kaplan Liverpool. Sentir que a Kaplan não se importa muito com Níveis de Iniciantes, talvez os demais níveis sejam melhores, mas só posso falar apenas da minha experiência.

  Booked onto a very expensive course, then was ill for the last two days of it so couldn't attend. I was promised extra support, then they changed their minds. Now I'm stuck not knowing half the information for the exam. Staff are unhelpful and unprofessional.
