An experience that enchanted me, says Magda, who fell in love with this town at first sight.
"Scarborough enchanted me with its beauty and the power of the sea. The waves crashing against the shore gave me a feeling of endless energy and peace. The course with Linda and Dave was not just about English, but also about immersing myself in the local culture and history. The experience opened my eyes and heart, and Scarborough became a place I will always love. And as for my English, I have gained much needed confidence in speaking and picked up many new phrases and English experiences that I will draw on for a long time to come."
