You helped me find answers to so many of my questions about CT!

One thing I can say is that I feel more comfortable and natural speaking English.

I had a great time with you guys.  I won’t forget you anytime soon.

Dear Diana

now I am back home for 2 weeks, but I am still in Cape Town, in your school, in the streets, in the Company garden and I am enjoying the view from (is it right?) the Table Mountain.

Heinke Kuester

I’d like to say again many, many thanks for my staying at your school.

I wish you and Gavin and Mikel a nice Christmas time and a happy New Year and Kurus English a very successful 2012.

Kind regards

I very much appreciated the way of teaching

and the comitmment of studies and activities!!

Thank you all and until next time…?

Beat

well you’re generous! I’ve got the bottom of the page to express my gratitude to the Kurus-English Team.  These 9 weeks here were fruitful, exciting, challenging, exciting, challenging and one more appalling and enriching experience in Africa, one more piece of the puzzle…  A special thanks to the teachers for their patience.  To Diana and Johannes for their commitment and reliability.  To Iain and Michael from Coffeebeans for the excursions and their vision of Cape Town.  Cape Town…South Africa…Africa…My course at Kurus helped me to have one additional tool to go more in depth with the discovery of Africa and the slaving of its vibrations, wanders, realities…

Peace, Timon

Dear Kurus,

According to Confucious “A journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step”

We were all deeply moved by your AWESOME and LOVELY way you welcome, treated and taught us.

Thank you and we all hope to see you soon.

On this very day, the 5th of October 2011, it is exactly two years that went by from the day when I took my first step onto one of the most lovely and joyful places on earth and which made the prelude to the most adventurous, fascinating and greatest periods of my life.

Yes, you’re right, the most lovesly and joyful place on earth, that is directly addressed above, is no other than your Kurus English and the person who is writing is no one less than your lil’ Junior Johannes from Germany!

I must tell you that I’ve never felt the desire to send you a personal message as strongly as today.  I’ve often been thinking of it. It’s especially the simple availability of digital and online contact through internet and worldruler facebook that made me think: “‘Lil Jo, you HAVE to make a difference.  It’s your royal mission to maintain the lovableness of old fashioned traditions – such as writing a handwritten letter to your beloved people!  And today, I’m thinking:”What are you waiting for? October is the greatest month that was ever invented!  So, take your pen and go ahead!”

At this point, I have to sprinkle in the mandatory excuse for my bad handwriting.  I make my best endeavour but still, it’s a tall order!

Writing this letter, I just want to let you know that I’m still going into raptures about Cape Town, the time at school and especially when thinking of you!

To my dear Gavin, I want to send you my most enthusiastic greetings!  Although we haven’t met for two years I still have the most vivid imagination of your radiant smile, your irresistable positivity and your extraordinary teaching style that has, to the day, remained unique to me.  And I still owe you my greatest gratitude for writing the academic reference to Cambridge, even though my application was turned down.

To my most gorgeous Diana as you have captured on Facebook, Junior has finally grown up!  We should celebrate that date once!

And to my greatest namesake, Big Johannes!  I picked up in the Internet that Rugby World Cup is running at the moment.  I was confused that you haven’t played for South Africa so far!  You’d cut a good figure as a mighty defender! But still, the Big-Boss – aura suits you just as well!

Also send my love to Aaliya!

I hope that one day I’ll see you all again in Cape Town!

Wtih the best greetings from Germany, to my two-year Kurus -anniversary,

your lil Junior Johannes

Time flies…

Thank you for two amazing, wonderful and informative weeks.  I’d not enough time to ask all of my questions.  It was a lot of input and just a little time. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to participate in a part of South African life and getting an impression of this beautiful city. I’d like to say again, we haven’t any problems at home.  I’m so glad that I had my own teacher.

Remember Kurus – when a German chap says “It was okay” then you have fulfilled all his expectations. I say: It was fantastic! So you can be sure that I was highly impressed and deeply moved.

By the way, you should always remember that Rapport = formal flirting.  And you are the Masters of Rapport!

I have a nice time in your school I have learned so much, thank you.  You are very family and thanks for the excursions.  I hope I see you more times in Cape Town.

Julia Bayer

Thank you so much for this wonderful occasion to stay at your school for one week. We have profited in English and have learnt a lot of/about the social conditions; the efforts you are making to improve our cultural understanding is a great benefit to us.  We hope to see you again either in Zurich, Switzerland or in Cape Town!

I was studying at KURUS SCHOOL for two weeks. I had really great time here, becuase I was feeling an exceptional friendly atmosphere and had highly competente teachers, especially Gavin!
A daily highlight were also the excursions guided by Iain. I’m so happy to have learned both, English and a lot about Cape Town – his History, all the News in the Present and the challenges in the Future.
Yes, Cape Town is a woth living town. I’m going to come back with my wife in 2012!!
Thanks for all,
Erich

for these wonderful and very interesting 2 weeks. I were able to improve my English (thanks Gavin for not giving up on I).  Thank you Iain for showing me all the beautiful sides of Cape Town.

Thank you

Thank you Kurus for this wonderful time. I’ve enjoyed myself.  It was a good start to South Africa and I learned a lot about the country and the people. Now my internship, in Durbanville, can start!

It was a fantastic time with Kurus English and I’m very unhappy that I must leave Cape Town today at 19h00 – German time.  In Germany I have to see all the Mercedes on the streets and the weather is much colder than here…

Next time when I come to Cape Town I want to make a weekend trip to Sahara Desert, and I hope that the streets are free for the 12 hour easy going drive.

Thank you very much Kurus English team!
