Désolé de pas avoir répondu plus tôt.
Le centre Albaraka se situe à environ 20 minutes en bus des tours petronas.
C'est à l'arret Ampang Point il y a un centre commercial, et pleins de boutiques, restaurant, services (dentiste, medecin, clinique, massage, coiffeur, money changer...). J'aime bien ce coin j'y vais pratiquement tous les jours pour boire un verre, restos... C'est comme çà que j'ai connu Albaraka language center, c'est en passant devant j'ai donc demander tous les renseignement. Ils t'acceuillent vraiment bien, et ils sont "aux petits soins". J'habite a 15 minute du centre Albaraka, donc a plus de 30min des tours petronas. J'avais pas envie de vivre a proximité par ce que ont y croise beaucoup de touristes ou des expats, et les commerces, restos... c'est aussi plus tourner vers cette clientéle. J'avais envie de dépaysement et de me "mélanger au malay". Je suis pas non plus dans un cando par ce que les loyer sont plus elever et j'ai pas non plus trouver grand intérêt. Je suis en coloc, on est 2 dans un petit 4 pièces pour 75 euros chacune.
J'ai comparé beaucoup d'écoles de langues et j'ai choisi Albaraka par ce que : C'est pas cher, pour une meme qualité de cours, les profs viennent d’Angleterre, c'est apparamment les meme livres que Elit "Headway", tu rencontre des gens qui viennent du monde entier. Ce qui m'a vraiment convaincu c'est tous les services qu'il y a a côté, je vous fais un papier coller mais la liste est longue:
- _ Couverture d’assurance médicale et d’hospitalisation, soins gratuit a la clinique située dans le meme immeuble.
- _ Nous venons vous cherchez à l’aéroport et nous vous orientons a votre arrivé.
- _ Logement : Nous proposons des logements à proximité du centre Al baraka, seul, en coloc, en couple...
- _ Assistance à l’ouverture d’un compte bancaire.
- _ Immigration : Nous constituerons le dossier avec les documents nécessaires pour votre visa étudiant.
- _ Nous facilitons l’entrée aux universités académique pour les étudiants qui étudient dans notre centre. Activités étudiantes : BLC organise des sorties en groupes divertissantes, plus particulièrement nous organisons des visites et la découverte des destinations les plus populaire de Malaisie.
- _ Pendant votre temps libre vous pouvez profiter de la salle laboratoire informatique, internet gratuit (facebook, chat, recherches…), bibliothèques, machines à café, encas, playstation, tv…
Vous pouvez aussi recevoir vos amis/conjoint qui viennent vous rendre visite au centre.
J'ai pas trouver autant de services et de disponibilités chez Elit ou British Council ...
Pour les cours de Coran j'ai demander au patron, je lui ai expliquer que je suis pas la seule a chercher qu'il y a d'autres personnes intéresser, il m'a dit que si il y a suffisamment d’élèves il pourrait ouvrir une classes.
Pour les cours 3j par semaine 3h pour 400rm/100euros çà peut ne pas etre assez pour ceux qui veulent de l'intensif, donc possible de rajouter d'autres modules comme "speaking active& listening" ou "Academic Active Writing", pour 1 mois,3jours par semaine 3h c'est 500RM/125 euros.
Il y a aussi la preparation a l'examen TOEFL, IELTS, les modules " communication skills, Meeting and presentation...
Petite question, As tu une idée des prix du british council en Malaisie ?
Je galère à trouver les infos chez eux, j'en trouve aucun ...
PS : J'ai rien dis, j'ai pas activer Flash, et donc c'était directement sur les brochures flash.
Pour infos, c'est 850 RM par semaine, et je crois qu'on peut faire qu'une semaine sur deux à chaque fois, c'est assez complexe à vrai dire ... (850 = 210 euros à peu pres).
EDIT 2 :
Les cours chez ELIT sont tous les jours, où seulement quelques jours par semaines ?

A mi temps 30h pour 10 semaines à 820rm/205 euros
Si j'ai bien compris, on a 6 heures de cours par jour, donc sur 5 jours, ça reviendra à 30 heures ?
sinon y a plein d'adresses où tu peux chercher un logement, si tu veux partager un appartement avec d'autres, ou tu veux carrément prendre un appartement pour toi tout seul.Regarde sur ce site.
http://www.mudah.my/
tu viens de prendre l'option intensive oui c'est ça c'est 6 par jour mais je pense que c'est trop 6h par jour. It's boring !
tu devrais tester un mois chez eux pour te faire une idée.
"Fait comme l'abeille qui se pose sur la fleur, elle ne retire que le nectar."
What time do classes start?
0930 to 1245 or1400 to 1715 and 1815 to 2130. We do not have every level at every time; pleasespeak to us for our current availability.
Donc a plein temps 30h pour 2 semaines à 880rm/220 euros
A mi temps 30h pour 10 semaines à 820rm/205 euros
Si j'ai bien compris, on a 6 heures de cours par jour, donc sur 5 jours, ça reviendra à 30 heures ?
Si tu choisis plein temps c'est 30h sur 2 semaines.
Et tu choisis tes heures (3h) De 9h30 à 12h45 ou 14h00 à 17h15 ou 18h15 à 21h30.
Mais il n'y a pas chaque niveau a chaque créneaux horaires par exemple ils peuvent dire nous n'avons pas de cours niveau intermédiaire de 9h30 à 12h45.
A plein temps chaque niveau correspond a 2 semaines de cours.
Chaque tranche horaire correspond a 3h de cours avec 15 minute de pause.
Il y a cours tous les jours (3h) du lundi au vendredi.
Pour passer au niveau suivant tu repaie donc 880rm/220 euros pour de nouveau 2 semaines de cours.
Si tu veux faire 6h de cours par jour c'estpeut être possible tant que tu paie encore 880rm donc pour 30h de cours en plus sur 2 semaines. Et çà te ferait donc 60h de cours sur 2 semaines soit 30h de cours par semaines. Il faudrait leur demander. Mais es ce que c'est possible, vu que il te place selon ton niveau, je sais pas si çà va te plaire d'étudier 2 fois la même leçon dans la même journée. Ou alors il faudrait qu'ils acceptent de te laisser suivre les cours de 2 niveaux différents sur les 2 semaine.
ok rectification, ce centre albaraka, note sur 10 je dirais -2....
d apparence ecole sympa mais tt est factice.
les profs c simple y en a pas, ou si mais juste le premier jour
le niveau c simple les cours ou devrais-je dire le cours est le meme pour tt le monde car pas assez d etudiant pour separer et faire differente niveau. De plus aucun test d entree n est fait afin d evaluer mon niveau.
A cote s ajoute le fait qu on vous promet avant d arriver logement.. ils vont meme jusqu a envoyer des photos de differentes sorte de chambre et vous demande de choisir en fonction des options et taille... et a mon arrivee surprise.... RIEN de RIEN....
ALors avec tt ca si sam tu recois ce message dis moi ce que tu penses de mon vecu et que peux tu me dire sur ton experience dans cette bullshit d ecole????
merci d avance
Coucou, merci pour ton message Trankil2.
Jetais inscrite il y a quelques mois danc cette ecole, ca cetais bien passer pour moi. Mais depuis qu il y a le nouveau responsable qui sappelle Sassi, tout c degrader. Ca fais quelques jours que jai repris contacte avec lecole car je voulais my reinscrire mais jai changer davis apres que je me suis rendu compte de qui etais ce responsable et aussi tous les mensonges fait. Aussi je dois vous prevenir que il ai une personne vraiment mauvaise, et manipulatrice, cest bien dommage que ils ai recruter ce con. Jai encore jusqua hier entendu plusieurs probleme qu ils avait fais a different etudiant ( chantage aux etudiant concernant leur visa, cherche a simiscer dans la vie des etudiants...)
Je vous deconseille vraiment cette ecole car elle ne vous apportera rien et des problemes.
Juste a cote il ya 2 ecoles danglais que jai decouvert par la suite une au tarif identiques et une encore moins cher. Une etudiante francaise y est inscrite et me raconte que du bien sur lecole, jai choisi maintenant celle ci pour my inscrire. Jattend de mieux connaitre lecole cette fois ci pour vous tenir au courant ;)

My name is Deborah, I’m French. I’m married and have two children. I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychotraumatology, and I’m also pursuing medical studies.
For some time now, I’ve been seriously considering moving to the United States. My long-term goal is to practice medicine in the U.S., with a particular interest in forensic pathology. I know the journey is demanding (USMLE, residency, fellowship, etc.), but I’m ready to commit to several years of hard work.
For now, I’m focused on building this project thoughtfully. I want to improve my English, better understand the American system, and connect with people who’ve already gone through this process or are living in the U.S.
I have a few questions:
- Are there any doctors or international students here who’ve successfully matched into a U.S. residency?
- When did you start preparing for the USMLE?
- What advice would you give to someone still in medical school?
- Which states would you recommend for a future career in forensic pathology, with a good quality of life and good schools for kids?
- Is it better to do an observership or a research fellowship before applying for residency?
- What are, in your opinion, the pitfalls to avoid when planning such a project?
Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to respond. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!
Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...
What price should I expect to pay for a modest small apartment or a large room in a bedroom community in Quito? Are restaurants and food expensive? And which airline is best to travel from Montreal? Thanks for your answers
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has already had the experience of working abroad?
I don’t have a specific country in mind yet, so I’m open to hearing about your experiences on this topic—the pros and cons, etc.
Hi there!
I’m a young Malian looking to work in Morocco. Besides a passport, what other documents are required at the **Moroccan** border?
Thanks for your help!
Hi there. I’m planning to move to Luxembourg around December 2025 or January 2026. I’ll be looking for a job and settling in. My question is: is it too complicated to find housing? Is the job market more advantageous and easier than in France? I’m open to any information that could help me.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences about marrying a Cuban and moving to Cuba (not the other way around!). Yes, some of us actually *want* to stay on the island! Is it possible to work there without too much hassle, or is it really complicated?
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D
I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...).
Thanks again!
Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies.
PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant.
In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there?
Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on!
Thanks for your feedback!!
Hi there,
I’ve been living in Bali for a month now, but unfortunately on a VOA visa. I’m looking for a European company that’s set up in Indonesia. I’m in electrotechnical maintenance—air conditioning, cold rooms, 220V/380V electricity. I’ve been a tradesperson for 3 months and can bring my full professional toolkit. If anyone’s interested, let me know!
You can send me a message.
Best regards,
I’d love to go to Japan to travel, and if things go well, work there too.
Has anyone tried finding a job there? Is it even possible without speaking Japanese?
I’m thinking of starting out in restaurants (dishwashing or serving) and then moving into my field, IT.
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga.
To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that...
I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
I'm looking for an au pair who'd like to come to Bournemouth in the south of England, and I'd love to know what the best websites are to find one, please.
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background:
• I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*.
• I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor.
• Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience:
• I work as an *Employment Counselor*.
• I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0.
• I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles?
We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!!
Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin.
I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well:
I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers?
First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand?
Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]
Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄

Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol
