I highly recommend this school for the quality of the courses and exercises, for the outstanding teachers, for the small size classes, and for activities out of school (every Wednesday). I spent about a month there and I really feel confident in my speaking and listening skills, what I was looking for. The staff was available and very kind as well.

IH Cape Town is more than a school; it’s a place to learn English, it’s a home. From day one, they welcome you and integrate you into this wonderful family. The team is always ready to help you, from reception, through the teachers, administration, all the way to the staff in the residence and apartments. I will always remember the charm of the reception staff, always willing to assist, and Nicholas, the enthusiastic, motivated, and motivating teacher of this great language.
