English Walks |
I really enjoyed the morning with you so a big thank you from me! You are all so supportive to each other as well as really striving to find those words! A great way to learn English, I think! Nelly Hi Gail Thanks very much for the lovely walk and all your interest you showed in our learning. Maria |

Richmond-upon-Thames: River views and Royal Connections, Saturday 17th November 2018
There are a lot of things I liked but number one was the amazing views from Richmond Hill. I liked everything .. Like always I learnt a lot of new vocabulary. I spent a really nice time chatting with the others. Ula 
|
I enjoyed getting to know the history about Richmond. It was a calm and pleasant walk, and doing it in Autumn was very special. A beautiful place and good concersation.
A lovely day Gail! I'd like to thank you for your precious work! Leili 
I liked how it was organised - from introducing to going over new information. A nice walk and I enjoyed everything. It was a pleasant day. Alena 
|
The views from Richmond Hill and the cafe settled on top for me. Als the walk along the riverside. I didn't like the broken coffee machine in the first pub we visisted though! I find it very interesting this kind of activities because it let yourself know a bit more of the city, the culture and the people living there. Thank you! Marta

Follow the Elephant: exploring Walworth and Elephant & Castle - Saturday 20th October 2018
|
Some very nice green areas were included. I also like in the path, beautiful buildings as Cinema Museum and Budist Cafe. I least like that particularly on this walk, people were not so open to talk. Maybe it was because they had a weekfull. It was very nice though! Gail always chooses a good path, full of history, information and makes us become aware of the political and social issues of London.
Leili 
Best, I like the small church where Charles Chaplin's parents got married. It was an amazing experience because I enjoyed untipical places from London. I like the idea to everyone prepare something. I'll try to enjoy again, thanks! Ana 
|
I could discover a new area plus lots of information about it. I least like that I had to talk in public but in fact it's good for me. I learnt many, many new vocabulary.
Ula |
It's original and you have to be part of it. It was easy to follow and everything was interesting. I'll join the next one (if I don't have to work)!
Antonio 
I like the visit of the Cinema Museum, the market and all the snippets of informaiton.
Sarah 
I liked best the history about the area and how the things have changed in the past few years. It was a nice walk with friends that I have met before and with Gail who is a very good teacher. It was good to prepare a part of the history before coming to be committed. One suggestion: during the walk, apart from everyone's speech, we could have passwords, riddles ..
Maria |
Borough: A tale of poverty & prisons, renewal & growth
Best was the conversations with Gail and my new friends. Some great experiences! Elena 
I like best Charles Dickens facts, the Marhalsea Prison and the Crossbones Cemetery. It was a great experience - a great group and walk, as usual - even with the rain!! Luca |
I like the small size of the group, the informal visit, the research we did. The best part to come back on the vocabulary. It was so interesting. I enjoyed the walk a lot!
Thomas 
|
I liked the different snippets about Southwark. The weather was least good but you couldn't do anything about it! Sarah 
|
Hammersmith: stories of music, art & innovation - Saturday 28th April 2018
|
I especially liked the historical information that was intersting and funny. But I didn't like the cold weather LOL! I love it as always. I learned many new words and our funny instructor makes time pass very quickly.
Unal 
What did I like best? The area, people and history. It was a little bit cold though. Today was so good experience as always. Hammersmith is a nice area and I loved discovering the history about the places we have been to. I can't wait for the next one! Maribel 
|
This area has different and contrasting parts which create unusual perceptions and impressions. The weather was quite cold unfortunately, or my cloth was not appropriate for this weather. I love English Walks because it's interesting and there are many interesting people. Thank you Gail for your enthusiasm! Elena 
Best was the church and the Bridge. And the stories about each place we have visited. The weather wasn't good (but you can't do nothing about that!). My second English conversation Walk was great! Sarah |
The documented stories from Gail about the different places we've visited were best. The least thing I like were Gail's drawings (joking!!). It was good fun, as always. Very interesting spots and their history that helped me to know better my area.
Miguel. 
The best was the last part review all the new words. And the riverside and beautiful church. The thing I least liked was the cold weather! I have learned many history stories about the area. And met some new people. A relax, happy walking. I would like to attend the next one. Liya

The many faces of Dalston, Saturday 03rd March 2018

I liked the Boulevard Square and Dalston Peace Mural best. I discovered a new part of Lodnon that is not touristy and it is full of music history.

I liked discovering new places. It was a very interesting walk with a lot of vocabulary. Sarah 
|
The market was best.
Vincenzo 
Getting to know so many places and all the cultural mix of the neighbourhoods is what I liked the best. I didn't like the weather though! It was a great and very pleasant walk.

Leiliane |

I liked St Bride's Church the best. That was an amazing and a great experience, which I could learn curiosities about London as well as new vocabulary.
Carolina 
I like best the medieval chapel of St Etheldreda and Ely Place. And the Wedding Cake story! I didn't like the noisy roads though! It was a lovely group. Axelle

I like Ely church and St Bride's church. As usual, I learnt new vocabulary and enjoyed discovering sites from the city I didn't know existed. Gabriela 
The best was Postman's Park with all the stories. It was a lovely group to do the walk. I learned quite a few new words and learn about British history. Anthime |
Visiting new places was best. It's challenging for me because I learn a lot of vocabulary and I need to research info. Pierpaolo 
The atrocities (stories) were best.
Vincenzo |
Where business, finance and skyscrapers meet medieval London, Wednesday 04th October 2017
To discover really nice places hidden among skyscrapers was the best. The English weather was the least good! It is is always a really nice to go through all the vocab at the end.
Anthime |
The mix of the different kinds of architecture and going through them was good. I didn't like the windy weather and noisey atmosphere. Learning and practicing English in a different, pleasant and informal way is good. I don't know if it's actually possible, but going on the top of a skyscraper (the Walkie-Talkie) could be amazing during this walk! Axelle 
|
The walk in general and Gail and the others - all were best. Particularly I enjoyed to visit St Andrews Undershaft and the garden of St Dunstans-in-the-East. It was very interesting. I could learn a lot of new vocab and I could see very beautiful places in the city. Rosella |
Spitalfields: stories of silk & immigration, Saturday 16th September 2017
Going through the history of this area was interesting. Maybe a bit too short. It was a nice place, very pleasant group and a dedicated teacher!
Axelle 
The area is amazing. The street art and lovely histories. It was great to spend the day knowing the Spitalfields area had so much immigration history. Great vocabulary, nice group conversation.
Leiliane |
A really nice place where we learned a lot of history. It was maybe a bit too short. A nice coffee to start the walk. A nice walk in a good atmosphere. I was able to discover a lot of new words.
Anthime 
To visit new places and the research exercise were the best thing. Visiting new sites and listening about them is good.
Pierpaolo The area was good. There was nothing I didn't like. The weather today was amazing. It was so good! There were 10 of us so the walk was completely booked and I enjoyed it a lot lot with all of them. I will come back. Maribel 
|
Lots of history in the area. All was good. It was excellent as always. I'm looking forward to the next walk!

Luca I liked the Market and the whold area in general. I learn about the local history and new vocabulary. Gabriela |
Hampstead Village and Heath, Saturday 05th August 2017
|
I felt I was in a place very far from London. Lots of history in every corner. The weather, again wasn't good - but there is nothing you can do! Excellent walk, lovely people. A great experience. Also lots of new vocabulary and learning. Looking forward to the next one!
Andrea 
It was intersting to visit new places and know their history.
Pierpaolo I liked the different monuments inside Hampstead. A very nice walk through a great area of London. Gail explained to us a lot of history well selected and the work before the walk wasa a good way to get ready first. Anthime |
The part of the big houses on the hill and the park. I really enjoyed discovering new spots of Hampstead village.
Gabriela 
|
I liked the fact that we had to do some research before. The walk was very informative. An amazing way to discover London and improving our English as well. We have fun!
Axelle 
I enjoyed Keat's House and the history as well as Fenton House. There was nothing I didn't like. A great experience - one of the most fascinating places of London.

Best was learning new vocabulary in a funny way. To discover new parts of London. It was a pleasant day with nice people. And discovering new areas of London (and no touristy ones - very important). A great concept. The best way to learn English in a funny way. Laetitia |
I liked all the walk and the walking through the old warehouses. There was nothing I didn't like. Everything was lovely (as usual). Personally, I enjoyed the walk. I think that it is the most relaxing way to practise English. I'll join the walk every time I will be in London!
Giuseppe

Inma 
|
I enjoyed it a lot! I have enjoyed about the history in this area and the people that have come. What I liked least was the weather. It has been nippy! I have had a very nice day. The story has been very interesting and we have seen very interesting places as well. The people have been cool today. I will come back to English Walks conversation.
Maribel |
Best was having the opportunity to practise new vocabulary, the places we visited, the exchange with the group, teaching methods. What I liked least: it was nippy! It has been a great day. The approach of preparing exercises - working on them and using them in real life - is the best way to learn words in context and keep them in mind. I'm looking forward to the next one!
Elisa Best I liked the places, the stories and the jokes ... It's been bloody cold today!! I've tried to make my speech without reading it ... which I think it's a good exercise. Thanks! Miguel |
The Last Stop on the Victoria Line: Bustling Brixton. Wednesday 20th January 2016

I liked walking and chatting the best. And the windmill. It was very nice weather to enjoy the walk in Brixton. There was a lot of good information about the history of Brixton. Delphine. |
|
The best was learning new vocabulary and knowing more about the history of this place. The English teacher is very interesting and speaks slowly - it's very easy to follow her and understand all about this place. Great experience. Maybe I will come for the next English Walk. Clemence. |

Always lovely, always fun, always interesting! Belen. |

The place, the area, the English class. There was nothing I didn't like. Today we spend a fantastic time with good people and good weather. We visited a lot of interesting places and I enjoyed it so much. Thanks for this great day!
Maribel

Dimitris |
Where Business, finance and skyscrapers meet Medieval London: Old Street to London Bridge, Wednesday 1st July 2015
|
Best was the interaction with all the other participants. The format is excellent and giving all the opportunity to speak. I didn't like the heat and noise but it has nothing to do with the organisation. I learned new vocab and pronunciation. Even if I worked in the City, I discovered a few new places and short cuts. Well paced.
Corinne 
St Helen's Church was best and Leasdenhal Market. I enjoyed the history. I look forwrd to any other walks.
Lilliana I liked St Ethelburga's Church. It was an interesting walk around the City. We found lots of history around the area. Diana |
I like the method and the way you look for the words, expressions ... It's the most real I've learn method. I recommend to everyone.
Jose
The best was the atmosphere of the City. But I didn't like the hot temperature. This is my second walk and it is ver yinteresting to visit new places and to practise English in a so motivated way.
Carlo
|
I liked St Helen's Bishopsgate Church and the garden of St Dunstans-in-the-Eat. I don't like the Gherkin Tower. Yolanda

I like All Hallows Church best. I learned aboutt he history of the place. I enjoyed the teacher's explanations. I want to repeat other experiences like this.
Lilliana It was wonderful. This is my ninth walk. I enjoyed it as usual and I would highly recomment to who wants to learn real English from a Londoner and explore new places in London. I hope the new students enjoy the walks as me. LiYa 
We walked around Borough and discovered interesting new places (parks, buildings, gardens). I learned about the history of this place and lots of new vocabulary.
Diana |
I liked the format of the teaching - the personal touch of the teacher. But I didn't like the cold weather ... It was a very interesting way to learn English, very motivationg ... no place or time to get bored ... friendly atmosphere ... nice people to chat, too! Carlo 
I liked the Crossbones Cemetery best and Red Cross Gardens. It was enjoyable (like usually it is) and a good opportunity to practise English with different foreigners (different accents).
Yolanda |
Best was the vocabulary, culture and history learned. It was a really rewarding experience, very useful for my English learning. But also for meeting new people and discovering new plaes and secret corners of London.
Miguel 
I liked Red Cross Garden but not the first cafe where we stopped in the morning - the owner was a little bit rude. I have enjoyed a lot discovering the history about this area of London. It'sn ot the kind of places you can discover easily by your own. Thank you for a lovely day. Belen |
In the shadow of the Shard: Bermondsey to Rotherhithe, Wednesday 3rd June 2015

I have discovered a new part of London and I think that I improved a little my "English skills". I think it was a great experience. This type of teaching if very interesting because you useyour new knowledge at the moment. It's a good method and a good teacher.
Daniel 
The Bermondsey streets and the Mayflower pub were best.
Yolanda |
I like reviewing the vocab, the places and the pub at the end. I've had a wonderful day by exploring London's secrets and have had lots of new vocab. I like the atmosphere, the talk and the laughs.
LiYa |
The walk along Bermondsey and the riverside was best. We walked from London Bridge to Rotherhithe. I enjoyed spending the time with the teacher and colleagues. It's a good way to know the "other London" and improve my English.
Diana 
|
Sailing to Stepney Green: Saturday 23rd May 2015
The conversation after the walk that helps to fix concepts was the best. I really enjoyed looking for information at home as part of the learning process of the English conversation walk. And I've been very pleased discovering new places at the city that I think I would never visited on my own. I'm very surprised and glad about the lovely atmosphere created by the teacher and the mates of the walk.
Belen 
|
What I liked best was to share a cultural experience in London with foreign people and a lovely teacher. Today was a good experience because for the firt time I use my time for something interesting for go out and mix culture, relaxing and friendly. Ketti. Best was the local facts, corrections and explaining new vocab and pronunciation.

The conversation was natural and enjoyable but I didn't like the weather.
I have known a new area of London for me, practising English in a natural way which is the best one to learn. Not theory, only practice. Yolanda |

I like Brixton Village best. And the least was the weather!
It was a very interesting area, a vibrant area. A great moment one more time! Amelie 
What did I like best? The conversation among the participants and to listen to them about the Brixton's history.
Today I have learned new expressions, listened about Brixton's history and speak in English. It would be great if I could do this again in future. Eduardo

Best was specific lesson about our mistakes enjoying a beautiful place. The time passes very fast and I would have more time to visit more places.
It's a wonderful experience, and informal class of English. I could learn a lot of things. Alba
I have learnt new vocabulary while I did tourism. I meet new people, and there was a person that said your mistakes. It's a good opportunity to talk in English - a real conversation. Jose Luis |

Turnham Green: Wednesday 8th April 2015
|
The best was to go through the new vocabulary again at the end and time to speak before the walk and at the end.
It was wonderful weather and there was time to explain historical things. A lovely area, interesting architecture. I particularly loved the first church we visited and the Bedford Park area. A great idea: the leaflet with all useful informaiton offered at the end. Claire 
|
I loved Bedford Park and its beautiful architecture.
We had beautiful weather, a great walk, nice people and a fabulous teacher. It was an amazing time as always! Amelie |
The best was visiting a part of London where I don['t come and which I don't know.
It's very good to prepare the walk because we can chate with things in your mind. It's very good to practise English with a native speaker and to visit and use unusual vocabulary. I would like to come to another if I can. Venessa

Richmond upon Thames: Wednesday 18th March 2015

Dear Gail,
It was a wonderful experience walking through the open green fields under the comforting sunshine of the early spring, surrounded by the beautiful flower riverside, seagull and pidgens grabbing food and flying around. Under guidance of the professional tutor, I learnt a lot about the histories and facts of the life, such as the tallest tree in Europe and as well historical buildings. It was a very memorable educational outing. Li Ya

|
Dear Gail,
Thank you very much for organizing such amazing walks. Under the guidance of you and your colleague, I was not only able to improve my vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar, but also learn about the fascinating history and facts of the local area. I feel this way of learning English is a much more enjoyable and effective experience than doing so in a classroom. Overall I feel much inspired after the walks and would highly recommend. Best regards LiYa

Turnham Green: Saturday 25th October 2014
|
What a well thought out language tour! Very informative, communicative and enjoyable combined with an intensive 'work-out' of the newly acquired vocabulary. A perfect mix of reading, speaking, listening and visual intake, thus making sure that you not only learn plenty of new words, but that you keep them. Very sociable too.
I found this tour to be the most effective way of improving my English. Thank you! Rudi 
|
I learnt lot's of vocabulary. It is a good way to meet new people and amazing native speakers! I enjoyed knowing more about English culture. Thanks a lot Gail Clementine It was a wonderful way of visiting London with great people and learn some history. I would like to come back. Rocio |
I really enjoyed the walk. I spent a pleasant time and it was really interesting, especially to discover the location of a London district in this manner (with two teachers/guides).
I would like to do another one with Gail and Charles. Brice I enjoy walking around this area, knowing new places really interesting, and also learning new vocabulary. Really good teacher focusing in our pronunciation and correcting our mistakes. Marta |
My experience of today's English conversation walk is very good. Because I can learn and speak about this place in English. So I like very much.
Fabiana 
Lovey and relax walk as always! Don't feel stress is main way to learn.

Amelie

It's a fantastic walk but also so moving when we visited the prostitute's cemetery and the area where there was the debtor's prison. It's so important to understand the stories and the feeling of these places.

It is always a pleasure to walk in a Gail's walk-group. Although we are often new people in the groups I always feel in confidence and I can live great moments. Learning is assured because it is combined with relax and pleasure of walking. I'm so happy and thanks to everyone. Filippo

Hampstead Village and Heath - Saturday 31st May 2014
Hi Gail
Once again thanks for the lovely walk. Students like me are very lucky to enjoy this kind of walks that involves vocabulary amazing history and beatiful people. See you next walk. Mari. |

Hello Gail,
I'm attaching some of the pics I took last Saturday. I really enjoyed the walk! Not only because Hampstead is a lovely, beautiful place, but also because we were given the opportunity of involving ourselves more actively and learning in a different and more relaxed way :) I'd love to join you in the next walk, but I volunteer at a charity every Wednesday, and it will also be my last week in London, so I won't be able to make it. All the very best, Maria |

Richmond-upon-Thames: River views and royal connections - Saturday 22nd February 2014
|
Hi Gail
Thanks very much for the lovely walk in Richmond. Every time I do a walk with you is amazing because I improve my vocabulary and this is my first target here in London. I realised the importance of the homework not only because of the vocabulary also because we learn many facts about London´s history. Waiting for the next walk I give you my regards. Take care.

Last stop on the Victoria Line: Bustling Brixton - Wednesday 12th February 2014
|
I took part in two walks (Brixton and Richmond) and I highly recommend this experience!
I had so much fun getting to know new and special places that have been carefully selected, in very different areas, in London. At the same time, I felt really motivated by meaningful and effective learning! I think that it is the best way to improve a language, with exiting and real experiences with a native speaker teacher, fully involved in our learning. Everything that the website promised was true! All the best, Laia |

In the shadow of the Shard: Bermondsey & Rotherhithe - Saturday 25th January 2014
|
|
Gail, thank you very much for yesterday!
It has been very beautiful experience. I've really appreciate your studies about Bermondsey and Rotherhithe. We can learn better with a nice and healthy walking. But the cherry on the cake has been the final with the last lesson in the Mayflower for all the good path's mates! Mayflower is an amazing pub. Filippo |
