Helena's experience in London

Today we are going to introduce you to Helena.

Helena came from Spain to London with the aim of working and improving her English, then she saw that Come2England offered many resources to start from the beginning...

She found our agency thanks to a friend who talked to her about us, she searched us on the internet and then she contacted us by email. Her impression during the whole process is that the service received is direct and customized, adapted to her own needs.

Helena paid for the English courses and she is specially happy with the results she had!! She is really satisfied with our system and she has even said that if she went abroad again she would hire our services again, the reason is that our performance is very useful when taking the first step towards an unknown country and a new language.

What are her future plans? She wants to go back to Spain, after having worked in London this summer, to keep on studying. She does not put away the idea of coming back next year or any other, now that she knows London and she has been able to see that it is a city full of opportunities.

We wish you the best Helena! :)

Carlotta, 17 years old, and in London!!!

Today! We would like to introduce you, Carlotta, 17 years old, from Rome. A girl who - thanks to her courage and entusiasm - has decided to come to London alone, to improve her English.

Which were her reasons you might wonder....

To have an important experience to grow up and mainly to improve her CV.

Carlotta is taking part to a Onu's project and she needs a good English. For this reason, instead of doing her holiday at the sea as all her friends are doing, she is in London.
She has found a job which allows her to live in London autonomously.

The right investment!!
Arrived in London for 2 weeks, Carlotta is satisfied of Come2England because after only two days from her arrival she has found a job which allow her to pay her London's life.

.....greeting from the job place!! :)




                                

The smiley face of Philippo, the right prize for our job!

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO COME TO LONDON?
I decided to come back to London to improve my English skills because English is essential to work in the sector that I wish. I've already been to London 2 years ago but I came back to France because the experience was not good. However, my dream is to work in the United States so I have to speak English fluently. That is why I decided to come back to London, to have a second chance.


HOW DID YOU FIND COME2ENGLAND? WAS IT EASY? WHICH WAS YOUR FIRST IMPRESSION?
I contacted Come2England via Facebook and I could talk with people who ran the profile (Nathalie and Anissa). They explained me the goal of the agency and I signed a few days later.

ARE YOU SATISFIED WITH OUR SERVICES? WOULD YOU TRUST US AGAIN?
My story is simple, in addition to the job assistance; I took a week of English courses which helped me to improve my level. Then, the agency got me an interview for a restaurant where I work today.

DO YOU THINK WE SHALL IMPROVE SOMETHING? IF SO, WHAT?
I am very satisfied and I don’t think I have anything bad to say about the agency. If I had to redo it, it would be with pleasure, I even recommend the agency.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR FUTURE PLANS..

I have many projects. For now I want to stay in London and then, I want to go to Germany for my future job.


                                          

Nicolo with his English Certificate



This is Nicolo', with his English Certificate of Come2England.


Today, he has taken his last lesson in our office, and then he wanted to have a talk with us, so we thanked him for that.

He started his London's adventure as our others clients, coming to London to improve his English and maybe to have a working experience.

He contacted with our agency because his friends had a good experience with us before, and they recommended Come2England for the good service provided, the professionalism and the availability.

Now, Nicolo's experience has almost finished due to his university course which starts soon in Italy. Nicolo is satisfied with the service and the English course, and he wouldn't doubt taking another weekly course.
All considered, the balance is really positive! One exception, Giada's music in the office "the 883"!!!

Here isMaxime´s experience with Come2england!!

Here is the of Maxime.

"Arriving in London on April 8, I had poorly organized my trip (unhealthy accommodation, sharing with 8 French, no English school available, no English phone number, no English CV to get a job etc.). It is seeking a new collocation in Bethnal Green that I knew Come2England agency. For a very reasonable price, they offered me:
• A direct link with an English renowned school attached to the British Council.
• An assistance to complete my CV and many addresses where to apply
• A SIM card (required)
• Interviews and meetings to understand how to get a job according to our requests.
    
All this in less than 48 hours.

Come2England clearly helped me to start this new rewarding experience allowing me to significantly increase my level of English. You have to be motivated to deposit your CV, but if you do it seriously it does not take you more than a week to find a job. I found my first job in a bar only two days after my arrival! ".
                                  

Francesa: Thank you Com2England!

I've been in London since a few days and I've already started to enjoy it.

 

Living an experience abroad has been my dream for ages, and as in Italy the economic situation is not good I decided to come to London. Coming here, anyway, wasn't easy, because i thought " How can i go there to work if i don't speak English?".

 

I started to search in some Agencies  services which may be useful to start a life in such a big city like London. The only reliable answer which i found was Come2England. At the beginning i was full of doubts because in Internet you can read a lot of things that makes you feel suspicious.

 

That's why I could spoke with Come2England's staff as many times as I need before buying a package. So, I could speak them with Skype, Facebook, Telephone. After that, I found out that to book a package,  you can pay just a small amount of advice and pay the rest later. I was sure it was the right thing to do then.

 

Now I'm here and all was simply perfect, the staff, the service and my room too. Yesterday I started an English course with Kirsten (Come2England's Teacher) and she is very kindly and helpful.... I've also won the last Photo Competition that Come2England did one week ago to celebrate their 4000 fans!!

 

Would I repeat the experience again? YES!!!

Bansky in London




Banksy, the unknown street artist, the poetic terrorist, the urban agitator... 

Who is Banksy? Nobody knows, his identity is one of the greatest secrets of Uk. We only can speak about  his struggle against the capitalism and his crusade for the human rights through his acid creativity.

Banksy beginnings

Banksy starts his activity in the 80s years in Bristol, as member of a group known as DryBreadZCrew.

But the true Banksy born  between 1992 and 1994 under the influence of Ad Jammers movement, group  dedicated to deforming public advertisements turning it in politic messages.

During this first years Banksy drown his city with graffiti of black rats doing different human  activities like dancing or taking photos.


One day  while he was painting a train coach, was discovered by the police. Banksy got away and hid below a rubbish lorry for 1 hour whilst trickled oil in his head. From this moment he started painting by stencil system.

After Banksy left Bristol and started display his art principally in London, but also in important cities like Barcelona or San Francisco.


Banksy the scandal king.

Since Banksy moved out Bristol has protagonize a lot of scandal wich have turn over the basis of the society. Any social social matter is free of his satiric art vision. We can find him in a Palestine wall, or attempting against the most important museums in the world placing false artistic pieces. Diana of Wales in ten pound notes, Monna Lisa with a bazooka even Paris Hilton neither scape his critics.





Now you can enjoy Banksy´s talent. Check out this link where you can find the location of all Banksy´s pieces in London.: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=106840029761599860484.00043e2db5162c1cbc318&ll=51.533523,-0.107632&spn=0.050935,0.159645&z=13&om=1&mid=1196544665
