Our article for the Wall Street Reporter
We really enjoy studying here, as the staff are so friendly and helpful; they are always available, even outside of structured activities. We enjoy talking and joking, we think this makes English interesting and fun.
The school is very flexible to our needs, so we can work when it is convenient for us.
There are a lot of communication classes which are excellent and help us to speak in a relaxed and realistic environment.
Two of our favourite social club activities are the reading club which takes place at a local café, and our own WSI4U.de web site, which is created for the students, by the students and always has new and interesting information.
Wall Street Hanover is situated in downtown Hanover, and is close to all public transport, so it is easy to reach for all students.
Hanover hosts many international trade fairs, and recently had a lot of international visitors due to the World Cup Football.
We are famous for our beautiful green areas, especially Eilenriede (a small forest in the city)
and the Herrenhauser gardens with its royal gardens which are original baroque gardens over 300 years old.
We have many festivals and the biggest Schutzenfest in the world!
Not far from Hanover is Steinhudermeer, the largest lake in lower Saxony, this is an important area for nature conservation and relaxing in your spare time swimming, sailing, walking or cycling are all popular here.
Our new Town Hall has many interesting models of Hanover through it’s growth, development and history since the 10th century. It also has an amazing slanting lift that takes you up to a viewing deck where you can see the whole city.
The Hanover zoo (founded in 1865) has a lot of authentic settings where you can view the animals. They have a very successful breeding programme, every spring we wait to see what new babies will arrive.
So, if you are ever in Hanover why not come in and say Hello.
