We always love to hear about students who enjoy their time at LSI so much that they decide to come back. LSI Brighton school director, Rachel Vallins,\u00a0talked to\u00a0one student, Eduardo Vera Abad, who has studied at LSI London\u00a0Central<\/a>, LSI Brighton<\/a> and LSI Cambridge<\/a> to hear\u00a0about his experiences.<\/p>\n

Rachel:<\/strong> So, Eduardo it\u2019s your last day at LSI Brighton.
\nEduardo:<\/strong> Unfortunately, it\u2019s the last day. I would like to stay longer but\u00a0sadly I have to go back to work. I\u2019m already planning the next trip and of course it\u2019s with LSI.
\nRachel:<\/strong> Fantastic. How do you feel about leaving?
\nEduardo:<\/strong> Well, I have to say I\u2019m happy but at the same time I\u2019m a little sad because I will miss the exciting English lessons, \u00a0the teachers,\u00a0 the students, the ambience of the school, the city and many other things.
\nRachel:<\/strong> How did your LSI story start? I believe you went to Cambridge first in 2015.
\nEduardo:<\/strong> Yes, the first time was in Cambridge. It\u2018s a very nice school. It\u2019s a fantastic city –\u00a0I love the river. I spent a lot of time walking\u00a0next to\u00a0the river and also the park.\u00a0It\u2019s lovely.
\nRachel:<\/strong> After Cambridge, where did you go next?
\nEduardo:<\/strong> I was in London Central, I spent three weeks there. London is a big city so\u00a0I really\u00a0needed more time.
\nRachel:<\/strong> Why did you choose LSI?
\nEduardo:<\/strong> I love travelling but I thought why not learn English at the same time? I think it\u2019s never too late to learn a language and as long as I can, I will keep doing it. I will keep coming to England and why not once more to Brighton? Wherever you have a school, \u00a0I will go.
\nRachel:<\/strong> If you had to compare the three schools, Cambridge, London and Brighton, what\u2019s different about them and what\u2019s similar?
\nEduardo:<\/strong> It\u2019s true that even in the same school the teachers are different and have different ways to teach. But I have to say that all my teachers\u00a0in Cambridge, London and Brighton were lovely, very good and interesting. I couldn\u2019t say which school I prefer.
\nRachel:<\/strong> I’ve heard that you want to go to America and possibly some other LSI locations.
\nEduardo:<\/strong> Yes, I\u2019m thinking about going to Berkley or New York. I asked for a brochure. I\u2019m planning to do a trip in October.
\nRachel:<\/strong> Great. What\u2019s the most important thing you\u2019ve learnt from coming to LSI Brighton?
\nEduardo:<\/strong> The vocabulary exercises have helped me a lot to learn more and helped me to remember, it\u2019s very important.
\nRachel:<\/strong> Thank you very much for this interview Eduardo. We\u2019ll miss you.
\nEduardo:<\/strong> Me too. I\u2019ve really enjoyed my time, thank you.<\/p>\n
