Testimonials

"My daughter was extremely pleased with her course. This course gave her a pretty good boost for her exams - as result she performed better than expected and can now take the offer of her first-choice-university in Scotland."

"I would just like to say a big thank you for all your help with my Physics SL grade. After my teacher had predicted that I wouldn't achieve higher than a level 4, I achieved a level 6 and I know that I couldn't have done it without the help of the Physics SL course I took with you! Thank you so much for the scholarship opportunity, it truly made the world of a difference in consolidating my knowledge and giving me confidence in my ability.
I will be attending the University of Southern California starting this fall where I will receive advanced credit for my IB results! Thank you so much for all your support!"

"The courses were just so good, I'm so glad I found out about them. I just wanted to let you know that I got into UCL for medicine ahh!! I got 42 and the most important thing was that 6 in chemistry. Thank you so much for the help! I'm so glad I came to Lanterna."

"The tutoring was first class and so worthwhile"

"Without your help I would never have got the 7 in Math HL and gotten in to LSE."

"The fact that you feel more secure and know more about your strengths and weaknesses is worth a lot. It enables you to focus on what you need to focus on during the few weeks that follow before the exam. [The tutors] are incredibly engaged and helpful. They understand your situation and want to help as much as possible and they have the ability to give very lucid explanations."

"The course definitely gave me more than if I would have studied for two days on my own. First it certainly increased my knowledge about mathematics which was the overall aim. Secondly it gave me further motivation and energy, vital in these last weeks of revision. And third it increased my confidence."

"It is great that Lanterna continues to send the students tips long after the revision courses in Summer! It's a while since we last corresponded, but I thought that I would update you on what has happened since July [...] [My daughter is] doing really well, having managed to get a 7 in her latest report, so now has 7 in both bio HL and chem HL which is fantastic. She works hard and has applied for veterinary medicine in the UK. The course in Summer really helped her to get over a feeling of chemistry being somehow out of her reach, and too difficult to reach a top grade in. Thank you!"

"The summer courses were extremely helpful and inspiring which led to a great start to my final year in IB! They gave me a much better understanding and new perspectives of the subjects as well as new motivation. This made studying a lot more enjoyable and my confidence has significantly increased!"

"The best thing about the course was the mixture of it. You were not only learning but also having a good time. Meeting new people from different countries and studying with students who want to improve just like you want to do, is one of the things I enjoyed the most. The focus was on learning things but also to have fun. Which I believe is an excellent combination to progress academically."

"I attended the Summer courses in Bradfield and I absolutely adored it. Thank you very much for all your help so far, you have really helped me improve my learning!"

"The best thing about the tutors was that they were very motivated, organised, prepared and seriously knew what they were talking about. I also liked that they had graduated from the IB, because that gave me the feeling that they knew exactly what we are going through."

"I felt more prepared for my classes when I got back to school in mid August. I was more confident about what I had learned during the last year and I was and still generally am more dedicated towards keeping up the work ethic I established during the Summer Courses with Lanterna."

"The people, I got to know so many new faces and new ideas. These courses are not just about learning, for me it was also about meeting new people. At the summer courses I met so many smart and charming people and I am still in touch with many of them today."

"The Pre-IB course helped me in many ways. I started school relaxed as I knew what was expected and that with hard-work I can manage the IB. During the courses I was able to collect ideas for our school such as for CAS. I was very motivated and keen on a challenge and the Pre-IB course helped me confirm that I made the right decision on doing the IB."

I just thought I'd write you a little something once again thanking you for coming out to speak to us. From speaking to my mates I can tell you we all found it useful, and inspiring! Thank you as well for offering these trials for your courses. On a personal note, I rather enjoyed the expressive yet relaxed atmosphere you invoked in the room, congratulations!"
