Disgusting school. If we had known in advance about such a cheeky attitude of the school towards students, we would never have studied here. Students are not helped by the word at all! Throwing money. And they gave the most shock that the children were given false documents for residence !!! We had problems with the police because of this!!!!!

I heard about this school from a well-known blogger on the channel, we will not name him, but still. GOUSTADI is a school that bought media advertising from all over the CIS in order, as they say, to harvest in September. In the summer, everyone constantly talked about GOUSTADI, that everything is fine and beautiful with them, you will fall into a fairy tale, but no... I will start with the toughest accommodation options from the School itself. I understand that the school does not care who to cooperate with and they can conclude a contract with Grandma from the next entrance and the class can rent an apartment at exorbitant prices. I chose not expensive and not cheap dorms, and in the photo it seemed like an awesome apartment for my money. But when we drove into the hostel, it turned out not to be the case. Not only did we have almost no furniture, but people who have a more expensive room, since they live in two. They had a disassembled wardrobe and bed. ALL!!! But I was still lucky, we had a Wi-Fi router, while others did not, and all the students from our house gathered in our hall in the morning to somehow learn Czech. But that's not all. We had a person in charge of our house where we live. He must solve all domestic issues, whether it is repairing plumbing, etc. Our katel broke down, it was minus outside, it was very cold. We called him right away and told him about the problem. According to him, he should come tomorrow and fix it. The result, he comes in a week and says: "I won't do anything here, I need to call the boilermakers" everything is fine BUT it was Friday, and the Czechs do not work on weekends. And we had to wait about 4 more days so that we could turn on the heating and die from the cold. But that's not all. We also lived for about 2-3 months in Prague. It's time to register with the Ministry of Internal Affairs for Foreigners. To do this, you need a document confirming that you are living in the Country. This document was made by a beloved, punctual person who repaired the boiler for us. This document is paid, but in some hostels it is free. It costs space money for us, and even this document turned out to be invalid, and because of this, 3 more problems appeared for us that no one could solve from the school. As we understood, they just hammered a bolt on us. There is another topic that we are being evicted because we are very loud at night, even though we do not have parties at home. And when the Czechs sing with a guitar, I arrange parties and yell under the window. This is the norm. I can go on but it will take longer In terms of training, everything is fine. Everything that was said was done. In a year, you can learn a language at B2. Teachers if that will help you. But I know that not everyone teaches so well. But not the point. My conclusion is this. Consider the best option when choosing schools. Since you can find courses cheaper and better. And someone will not lose your documents and you will not give money away. Have a nice day, everyone)

I am finishing my studies at GS and I am extremely glad that I chose this particular school. Curators are organized and help with any problem. Everything that concerns their duties, they perform. There were only conflicts with the hostel, which we resolved directly with the hostel, and not with GS (since they are not responsible for this) I would also like to note that teachers competently balance between important topics and games, between grammar and conversations, thanks to which the lessons are not only productive, but also interesting. I really want to go back to school. The first half of the year I studied online, the second - offline. During all this time, there was not a single problem with either the curators or the teachers. GS organize many activities for their students (picnics, conversation club, various games), which is also good news :)

I usually never put any ratings on the Internet, but here I just can’t pass by. Go Study - thank you for being you ? It was the best year of my life. on the saturation of the program - there are no questions at all. I had never had so many events in half my life before. in studies, too, everything is fine, the teachers are cute! curators too vanlove! I don’t know if I will stay in the Czech Republic, it seems that there is a slightly measured way of life here, but I’m definitely glad that I’m studying and will live in Europe.

I want to write an honest review about the Gostudy school and reveal the other side of this wonderful well-promoted language school. When choosing a language school, I fell for a good site, it was important for me to find out all the answers to my questions, and this is what attracted me to the Gostudy site. Initially, I did not pay attention to bad reviews, there were a huge number of them on the site. All negative comments related to pumping money, which was confirmed in my experience. Let's start with the fact that many students, including myself, are faced with the fact that the tutors answer once a month. I had to wait for answers to questions from the curator for two weeks, three, a month. I had to send the same email several times. Two months later, disillusioned with the help of the curator, I was looking for answers to my questions myself. The second problem, and again it's the curators... In Gostudy, the curator Daria works in the educational department. I repeatedly heard negative reviews regarding her work, later I was convinced of this myself. Since September, I got into the group from the second shift and into another building of Gostudy. This did not suit me for two reasons: 1) When choosing a hostel, I relied on training in the center, in the main office, because the hostel was a 10-minute walk. 2) The second shift did not suit me because of the time difference with my parents. The difference was 7 hours. The study ended at 5 pm, that is, there was no connection with the parents as such. I knew that there was a possibility of transferring to another group, so I immediately wrote to the curator Daria. My request was ignored for half a year. I wrote repeatedly, my parents wrote, all in vain. The answer was only “this is not such a good reason why we should hear your request” or “now we will expel students, if there is a place, we will transfer” The question arose why you recruit such a large number of students then, if later you cannot transfer from one group to another? By the middle of the year, my patience snapped and I decided to go to another school. Then I ran into another problem, and again, this is the curator Daria. I signed a contract with a new language school and only then went to Gostudy to touch it. I will say one more thing, before going to terminate the contract, I studied it in detail and in all the details. As soon as I announced my decision to Daria, asked to bring all the necessary papers for termination, sidelong glances flew in my direction. After that, Daria told me the following: “If you terminate the contract, you must pay the entire tuition fee for the academic year, because you pay in installments.” I knew all the terms of the contract and knew that there were no such conditions. I answered only one thing: “You work as a Gostudy curator and don’t know the terms of the contract?” To which they answered “Oh, I don’t know, but you have to pay.” Of course I was furious, because they wanted to extort 2500 euros from me, even if I did not continue my studies. Our conversation ended with my words “First, read the contract, and all the conditions, since you work here, you should know them” And finally, one more story about the curator from Gostudy. I had a curator, Emil, who was supposed to answer any of my questions and help. I will not say that there was no help. I could not receive a parcel from Russia for half a year, all because the curator confused me. In the end, I got it myself. There is a more interesting story here. I follow Emily on Instagram. As soon as all the events in Ukraine began, he was there at that time. Later he posted a story where he covered all his Russian students and their parents with a four-story mat. I was amazed by this unprofessionalism, tactlessness and rudeness of Emil. Finally, I will say to all students who are looking for a language school, despite all the good reviews, cool advertising and the site, you will never see it. A school promoted by bloggers, with half of dissatisfied students, with nationalist curators, with curators who do not put their students in anything and DON'T EVEN KNOW THE TERMS OF THE SCHOOL CONTRACT. A school that only has crappy curators, advertising and a good entertainment program, that's about it.

I am studying now in courses, the program is from September. Due to the coronavirus, I could not apply for a visa on time, because the consulates were closed. I applied in June, by September they were supposed to consider a visa, but I was scheduled for an interview. In terms of curatorial support, I was accompanied at all stages: assistance with the collection of documents, consultations for an interview. Unfortunately, I did not manage to get a visa by September, but Goustadi went to meet me halfway and so that I would not lose hours of Czech, they were able to organize online training. Online learning was top notch. There was a young teacher who constantly prepared interesting lessons. When I arrived, the curators met me at the airport, provided me with a SIM card and took me to the hostel. For 5 days, according to the rules of the Czech Republic, I have to be in quarantine, and on the 6th day, the curator showed me how to get to the government, where to take the corona test, where is the post office, where is the notary. On the same day, they took documents from me for translation for nostrification and documents for issuing a travel card. After the “tour” I went about my business and I didn’t have to do anything and didn’t have to deal with any paperwork. About my studies in person: all the teachers I had were young and demanding. The first teacher left due to health, now a young Czech teacher is teaching. It requires constant preparation and activity from us. Oh add. Courses: I go to mathematics and higher mathematics, I have no complaints. In general, I want to say that I am satisfied with the quality of education and the provision of services. Curators are always in touch, answer immediately, remove all paperwork from students. I also want to note that the curators explain everything in the most accessible language, which is very important for admission. GoStadi also has extra-curricular activities: movie night, parties, trips, picnics, sports. Satisfied. 10/10

The first time I met Go study was back in July 2019, when I came to the summer vacation program. It was just an unreal month during which I started learning the language, visited new cities and countries and met a huge number of interesting people. I can turn to my curators for any help even now, three years later. A lot of effort and soul of the organizers was invested in the program. They 100% managed to implement their idea, so I really wanted to return and plunge into this atmosphere again. In the middle of the 11th grade, I still did not know where I would go. One time I went to Instagram guestadi and saw a competition, the conditions of which were to make a video about why you want to study in the Czech Republic. In this competition, I won a grant that covers half the cost of my education. Now I am finishing my Czech course. It is taught by a native speaker named Ivo, who is always positive and comes up with some new tasks for us every day. By the way, classes are held in Czech from the very first day and the teacher does not understand Russian. The curators of the school are always ready to help and come even at night in an emergency. Webinars are constantly held on all issues that arise during the year (nostrification, invitations, visa extension). All questions can be answered during office hours. The department of nostrification is a separate love. If you follow all the stages of your admission to the university, ask questions in time, watch all the webinars and read the telegram channel with information, then there will be no problems. I also want to say a huge thank you for all the events that are organized additionally. These are sports (thank you, Emil, now I can ski), practice the language in a conversation club, movie nights in Czech, picnics, parties and much more.
