    Would I recomend?
    No, not if you are trying to learn Korean. If you want a vacation and have a shit ton of extra money maybe.

    So.. i’m thinking of going to Seoul through EF intensive course for a whole year, and i honestly have no idea what i should choose as my living situation. Cause i was thinking about the campus but then again a host family would be good since you get to talk and see them everyday etc, but then i feel like i would just be super nervous or something i don’t know :’)))

    • @oneofthesapiens
      @oneofthesapiens  Год назад +3

      you can stay as long as you want, however if you are considering coming to Korea to study like that I’d suggest try rolling Korea instead especially if you want to stay more long term, but if you are just wondering about the EF program in general, no they do not provide an allowance I had to pay all of my expenses out of pocket
      I hope that answered your question 💜

    Is the program (EF) actually good? I’m thinking of going to South Korea with EF however I’ve read so many negative reviews about the company. I’ve heard people were charged extra money, unable to get refunded, and that there’s terrible customer service. What do you think?

    • @oneofthesapiens
      @oneofthesapiens  Год назад +7

      Honestly I'd say go with rolling korea, with ef it felt more like we were just getting information dumped on us and just had to repeat for practice where as in rolling korea we are made to actually use it and practice on the fly (aka u had to think about it rather than just repeat ) but that's just my take. It does feel like I'm learning more with RK
      Hope that helps 💜

    • @oneofthesapiens
      @oneofthesapiens  Год назад +6

    • @liess711
      @liess711 Год назад +1

      I went to nyc with ef and although it isn’t bad I wouldn’t recommend it to everyone.
      First of all I agree that the customer service isn’t the best. They make it seem like they really care for you but once your trip is booked you are basically on your own. I’m a minor and I never met any other staff besides my teachers and the kitchen staff. That just felt a little weird to me.
      But if you’re a minor like me this is one of the only/better options. I would definitely recommend ef if you really want to learn a language or if you want to stay in a country for a longer period of time and make good friends.
      But if you are able to travel alone and don’t really want to learn the language I would recommend doing so, since it will be a lot cheaper.
      Although I’m not the biggest fan of ef I’m also considering going to Seoul next spring, would love to hear other peoples experiences from there!

    I'm thinking about going later this year for a few months (I'm not sure how long I want to go) I'm still deciding between Rolling Korea and EF... maybe EF will be better by the time I'm going lol but I think I would stay in homestay since it comes with it for EF but Rolling Koreas is a mini studio apartment (I'm iffy about both options). I think I'm gonna request a price quotation and see which is cheaper on whole...If anyone else is going to either at the end of this year lmk! (I'm thinking of going in October maybe)
