Best 3 months of my life

Olivia - Age 19 - Gap Year 2019 January course (looking back, I wish I could have done the November course so I would have been out there longer - But January was great too) I honestly cannot recommend this experience more!!!! (worth the money!) It was - no exaggeration - the best 3 months of my life Oyster worldwide were so helpful, I booked very late and they organised it all so quickly and easily for me. ---- All about the course (see below) ---- The Ski Instructor Academy (SIA) course: -- Instructors - So much fun and brilliant teaching -- Skiing - AMAZING, so much available. AND you are given a ski pass for the whole season in the area where you do the course - so can go back and ski when you are done teaching (sofa surfing or get own accommodation). -- Accommodation - Perfect for what you need. There was a variation - a big house with loads of people, or small apartments in one building and others. -- German side - If you want to learn, you can learn lots. If you want to scrape by, it is easy enough. -- People - Average ages 18-22, awesome people, from all over the world and lots from the UK. -- Exam - Well prepared and feel ready when exam comes. -- Apres - always good :) Teaching after the course: Different places to pick - Zell am See, St Anton, Salbach, and more I went to St Anton. Loads of young people working there. Fun teaching. Great Skiing and brill apres. Wish I could have stayed till the end of the season Was so sad to leave
