JudithHands	6. RE: Ten reasons for choosing Devon - No. 1 Sep 12 2008, 10:00 AM EDT "My friend Judith lives there!" Big John - tis time you came down for another cream tea - make sure I'm not out at the hairdressers next time. Judith Incidentally I promised to tell you about ALPHE versus Study World. I plan to write a short report for chums for the future but probably won't get round to it. However, I have to say I thought it was great - so much more relaxed, good atmosphere, I liked the 30 minutes appointments, that worked really well. Agents weren't totally worn out and the workshops rooms was negotiable without difficulty. It was all well handled and I will go again next year. I felt that for a school like us it was far more effective than Study World. The evening events were very pleasant, it was really more like an IALC workshop than one of those big impersonal workshops. Agent quality was very good. Post reply 2 out of 2 found this valuable.

JohnBarnett	7. RE: Ten reasons for choosing Devon - No. 1 Sep 12 2008, 11:20 AM EDT I'm glad ALPHE went well for you, my dear. Certainly food for thought there and I will take on board your most valuable comments. May your scones ooze with cream this weekend. Post reply 1 out of 1 found this valuable.

dblackie	8. RE: Ten reasons for choosing Devon - No. 1 Sep 14 2008, 12:58 PM EDT I'm also pleased to hear good reports of ALPHE. Monopoly or monoculture is the enemy of creativity in this business, and we so need good alternatives to Study World, English UK and the British Council. Post reply Do you find this valuable?
