Two courses with similar names can deliver very different study weeks. Compare lesson hours, timetable, class structure and whether the programme is designed for general improvement, an exam or an academic goal.
Location affects both cost and experience. A cheaper school may require a longer commute or different accommodation arrangement, so compare the whole package rather than one number.
Ask for current written prices and terms before booking. The useful comparison is the total cost of the study plan you actually intend to follow.
