Very lovely teachers and a very helpful staff.
Thilo Flüth , Brisbane
I had beautiful and wonderful times at the LSI Brisbane, because I like the teachers of the school, that makes me a lot of laugh and I've met a lot of international students at school. I miss the LSI Brisbane so much, that my future will be better, against the beginnings and I miss of course Australia, about the cities, nature, beauty, shops, Australians and my homestay family. And I will never forget these beautiful experience there. Thank you LSI Brisbane ^^

It was simply the most wonderful experience, which I have ever had. Meeting new friendly people from foreign countries made me so happy! And also teachers were so helpful at school! And London? What a lovely place especially at night! London was so gorgeous! I spent there 1 month and it was really the best month in my life!! Thanks so much for this great opportunity and hope see you again, LSI London! :) :-*
