I had a two week class in GEOS Singapore this time, Mainly, I learned English that can use in business. The class was so active. I couldn’t speak English so well but I challenged to speak it because of that. I want to learn English in GEOS Singapore again.
While I've been learning English in GEOS, I've improved my English impressively. Teachers I've met here are wonderful and approachable. Also, I could see they make a lot of effort to teach their students.
Every lesson is full of useful English so that I can acquire a lot of expressions, grammar, vocabulary. Also, there are many chances that I can get a correction and feedback. In addition, the staffs are friendly and nice and they are willing to help students! Luckily, most students I've met here are highly motivated so it made me carry on studying English hard. I'm happy that I've learned English here and finally I can see I've achieved a lot! Thank you GEOS!!
我作为 Muran Zhalumai 的母亲对GEOS学校的教育非常满意。 我的女儿在这里学习的时间是4个星期。 她在这里学习的期间觉得轻松愉快。
In GEOS, I join some programs and all of them are fun. For example, my teacher makes funny subjects and when I don’t understand what to say, he helps me gently. So I like the lessons. I like to study English at GEOS.
GEOS is very good and everyone who studies here is very happy! The teachers make learning English very interesting and fun. The location is really convenient because it’s the city center.My daughter enjoys studying in GEOS

I had the best teacher ever :)
This experience is amazing. I did 3 weeks at GEOS and my English is better than before. The teachers are very good and they are all native speakers. I'm very happy about this experience. Thank you.
GEOS was a very good experience. I have improved my English very much. A very nice school with friendly teachers. I had a really great time.
It has been a great experience learning English at GEOS. All of the staff and teachers are efficient and friendly.
I really enjoyed my stay at GEOS.When I started my classes I thought that I wouldn't learn too much but now, I am able to speak, write and listen to English very well. I met people from different countries. I recommend GEOS, the teachers are excellent. Congratulations GEOS for your outstanding language teaching.
GEOS in my opinion is the perfect place to learn English. Classes are fun , enjoyable and time passes quickly. In addition to learning a language, you learn new culture as students are from different parts of the world. I don't know other teachers but Daniel makes it possible to go to class everyday with interest.
Thanks to GEOS, my English has improved a lot as doing a variety of practices. Studying in GEOS, I got to know diverse foreign country of culture and differences. Fortunately, there are europeans in my class. Having a chat with them, I came to know about the different cultures between Europe and Asia. It was good for me to meet many kinds of foreigners that I have never met before.
My name is Arthur from France. I came to GEOS to follow an intensive training in English. Immediately, I felt at ease. Everybody is very friendly and international, the teachers from UK, US, Canada are really interesting and I became friend with most of my classmates.
This was my first class in which students from many countries study English together and I should use only English to communicate with others. So, at first, I was a bit confused but I got used to speaking English. I think my speaking and listening developed through these lessons.
GEOS is very good Language Centre for learning English. I have been studying here about a few weeks and I am happy to improve my English with professional teachers.
When I moved to Singapore, I didn't have a good English and my communication skill was bad. After studying at GEOS, I have improved my language and now, I'm able to talk and express my ideas.
GEOS is the best language centre for me. Before I started my course, I was pretty weak in English but studying here is very helpful. The teachers are excellent and the education we got is very good. I met friends from different countries. I really enjoyed studying in GEOS.
I would like to say that GEOS is an excellent school, great teachers and I learned a lot of things. I have enjoyed so much. Thank you GEOS for all the support.
GEOS is an amazing school to enjoy your trip in Singapore and learn English. Everybody in this school is nice, special mention to Colin, the best teacher ever. He is dynamic and be sure you won't get bored. I also want to thank Evelyn who's joyful and welcoming. I 100% recommend GEOS!! Thanks for all!!
Study at GEOS Language Centre was an amazing experience with the help of my excellent teacher, Colin. I managed to achieve my goal to improve my English and increase my vocabulary. I also could meet different people and make several friends from different countries. I will take this experience for the rest of my life.
Actually, at first, I just want to look for a place which can make me speak and practice but I think GEOS and teacher, Colin, has given more than what I wanted. My English vocabulary and pronunciation have improved, even my grammar. There wasn't any stress during the lesson. It is a nice place for those who want to learn English.
I like that I came this lessons. For me, it was very comfortable work with my teacher. Nigel gives friendly lessons. Result is improving my English.
Thank you for this opportunity. I am glad to come and will recommend Singapore and GEOS to my friends
