I attended a Spanish course here and it was a real revelation. I had read some good reviews both on…read morethe language school's website and elsewhere but there's always that question in the back of your mind 'but will it work for me?' I can only say that it did and I put this down to the way in which every aspect of the course was designed to make comprehension of the language simple and to allow you to begin communicating in the language from the very beginning. By the end of the course we were all speaking in Spanish just as we were told we would be and every step of the process had been enjoyable and - crucially for me - confidence building. Because of the way you are taught you really are left with a clear sense of how to put the language together in a proper sentence so that you can really go out there and converse with other people. Perhaps I was just unlucky with the way that languages were taught when I was at school, or in the way they were then 'taught' to me at evening classes, but I feel that the Paul Noble Language Institute intensive Spanish course put all these previous experiences to shame. I remember reading a Paul Noble Spanish review on their website even after I had booked my place on the course and can remember thinking 'can it really be this good?' Well, it was. And I am left with a resultant feeling of being so excited about the language. I want to tell everyone about it and keep trying to get people to go and learn Spanish with them. I think that gives you an idea of the sort of feeling the course gives you. Inspiring!

I did some French at school and have also since tried with some textbooks at home but I always seem to just end up learning words but not really how to speak the language. The weekend French course that the Paul Noble language people run had a really different effect to this though. It has actually left me being able to use my French, by which I mean that I can now (finally!!) string a proper sentence together and make myself understood when I'm speaking to someone French. Instead of pointing at something and saying "bread" or something like that, I can now actually express something quite complicated, in correct French, and be understood. This is what I most wanted to be able to do and it was exactly what I got. Recommended!!

Disclaimer: unlike all the ladies who reviewed this place previously, I went there as a student…read more(short-course facial course) for 6 weeks - not for a treatment ! so I am not reviewing LCIBT as a beauty parlor but as an educational place. I have to say that the quality of teaching is impressive- I was trained by two ladies and both of them worked hard to make the hardest bone names and muscles sound easy and familiar ;-) * I have tried couple of other beauty colleges around London, and trainers there are just freaky ---but that's another issue I had a hand-on experience there (obviously on customers and on other students) which gave me confidence and pinpointed at areas I should work on to improve. so the two good points in this place are (1) quality of teachers, (2) the hand-on experience you get while you are training the not so appealing point was the price.. the course was over £600 which is why I can't afford to sign up for any other courses there- although I desperately want to try couple of other short courses. these prices might not apply if you are diploma student (talking with another student, I noticed she paid nearly nothing for 2-year comprehensive beauty course!)

I visited for an Indian Head Massage, on my budget pursuit to get rid of the pain, tension and…read moreaching in my neck and shoulders. Since ten minutes at Walk-In Backrub didn't seem to do the trick, a more lengthy student therapy was the next on my list of things to try. The salon is located in a posh listed building just south and east of Oxford Circus tube station on Upper Marlborough Street, and is rammed packed full of teenage learner estheticians dressed in white (the crowd of them at the reception counter where I needed to sign in was five deep, no joke) in the mani/pedi room at the front of the building. Once I did get signed in, I moved to the relative quiet of the waiting room, which offered quite comfortable plush settees. My trainee massage therapist came to get me after a while, offered me a cup of water that she already had in her hand (nice), and led me upstairs to the massage therapy room. The area where she seated me looked much like an A&E examination room, but I was somehow unbothered when I considered the £15 I paid for the service upfront. The massage began, and I felt as if the trainee was just touching me rather than massaging. I personally like a heavy massage hand. This said, I've never had an Indian Head Massage before, so I don't know if that's what it's supposed to be like. At one point when she leaned my head back to massage my neck and face, I was dreadfully uncomfortable, as I was slouched up with my neck craned backward simultaneously, so it was sort of the antithesis of a relaxing experience at that point. I left a little disenchanted by the entire experience, but I couldn't get upset when I only paid £15 for it. But then, later that night, I realized that the pain in my neck and shoulders had abated a bit. More so than it had when I had a woman manhandle me for a ten-minute rub elsewhere. I will probably go back for other treatments, because, well, it's so damn cheap. P.S. Book ahead.
