TALK Schools, San Francisco — Local services in San Francisco

It was the worst experience of my life because I came to study for 6 months and I found out that this school doesn't have classrooms for all levels. When I contracted this school They didn't tell me they don't have enough teachers and classrooms. When I arrived at this school I realized they have only 2 classrooms for all students (now they have 3 classrooms). This situation makes them put many students in different levels of English in the same classroom. It is not good for learning. I was level 2 or Level 1 and they put me in a Level 4 Classroom for 2 months. It was a waste of time because I was not able to follow the lessons.

It is something that makes us great as humans. I have a little more time to stay here. I hope to enjoy the most of my stay....

I wanted to observe a class as part of an assignment for my graduate program. It is in my opinion that they either have something to hide, or….no actually I think they just have something to hide about the way they conduct their classes. I was told I could do a classroom observation there, but when I went there the day I was supposed to do my observation, they said that I could not do it. I went all the way there just come back empty-handed. They told me that they’d contact my professor by email to ask about the assignment to see if something can be worked out for a later date, and that never happened either. Not for a moment do I believe that they would contact me back, so I made other arrangements as this place was obviously...
