Educational organization in Edinburgh

“I completed a month of course at Alba and I'm loving it. The environment is super friendly and the teachers are excellent. Laura, from the exchange of emails to my registration, was super attentive. Teachers use didactics according to the student and this helps a lot in learning. During the whole week they provide activities, which helps in the integration of the students. People of different nationalities in pursuit of the same goal, which is to learn a new language.”

“I have a Granddaughter in Little Flyers Livingston. When I pick her up she is always happy and tells me she has spent most of her day outdoors. I love that they have free flow. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The manager is very approachable and always greets parents with a smile. Great nursery with lots of links to the community. Would highly recommend.”

“It is the first music museum I have been to and my favorite music museum in the UK so far. It is a combo of concert hall and music museum which belongs to the University of Edinburgh. The exhibit is so amazing, in addition to displaying some native British instruments, there are many French, Italian, German and even other foreign instruments. Originally, the piano without art painting is the piano of the common people, and the piano with art painting is the piano of the nobility. I love the harpsichord (picture 6), with Greek mythology hidden inside the lid, flowers painted on the sound board, a art about Chinese market depicted on the outside, and the piano legs are gilt in gold color. The German curator of the museum explained because that the harpsichord was bought by the French aristocrats and they chose the pattern themselves, and they hired several different painters, that’s why the finished product eventually presented in different patterns and styles, but in fact, there were many 17 century’s harpsichords and pianos of the French aristocrats like this. Thanks to her very much patient explanation, I felt so educated today. They said people can next book a tour guide online in advance, which I will do so next time when I come back, so that I can learn more interesting musical instrument history.”

“The services provided is topnotch, from the school application,to visa application up until the travel plan.Help has been rendered every step of the way. I would recommend Scot Study to anyone who wants to study abroad.I have best experiences from Scot Study.”

“Delighted to have found this local salon, thoroughly professional and friendly service. Great cut and colour from Janet and her lovely team!”

“Visited the penguin enclosure at Edinburgh Zoo last week and it was amazing! The penguins were the mist of their mating season and we could observe their behavior. Unfortunately, Penguins Rock can smell a little fishy but that is expected given the nature of the exhibit. Would recommend if you visit Edinburgh Zoo.”

“We are still not out of the woods but wanted to reassure anyone who has to take their beloved pet here as an emergency that these people will do everything they can. My cat Winston was feeling poorly and not eating too well. After taking him to my normal vet (Dundas Veterinary Group: never again) they told me his creatinine value was 1200 which is not good. 24 hours of fluids and no pain management, only trying to get him some gabapentin via food which he wasn’t eating and his condition was not improving and second blood panel showed 2300 creatinine. I didn’t want to give up especially since no imaging had been done so we received a priority referral to the small animal hospital and the treatment and bedside manner has been night and day. Winston was put on antibiotics, fluids and imaging was done among other things. These things take time and as of this morning his kidney values are back to normal ! Even if things do not end the way we want, I am so comforted by the fact that my cat is getting the absolute best care. Thank you to Joel and Esther and the team for taking such good care your patients and their owners.”

“What an excellent shop. I don't often go to a barber when I'm working away but I had some free time and wanted to treat myself. The guys at Blaze were absolutely brilliant. Came out looking sharp and feeling like a new man. Great value for money too. Thanks fellas. I'll be back.”

“Lovely friendly staff, great service.”

“I have taken all my dogs to icr for years, they always listen to my concerns and are professional and kind. Im a panicky dog parent and they are kind enough to reassure me, but tell me the truth, and advise me. Wonderful vets and receptionist. If my dog could talk ,ge would say thankyou too .”

“A friendly, caring staff at a modern dental practice. As a nervous patient, I really appreciate the understanding and car from Dr Rice and all the staff at Meadowbank Dental Practice, and would highly recommend them”

“I had an incredible experience in Jake's beginners drama class and Intermediate class! His passion for theater and dedication to his students truly shine through in every lesson. Jake has a unique ability to bring out the best in each participant, whether you're a seasoned actor or just starting out. The class is both challenging and supportive, encouraging creativity and confidence. The atmosphere Jake creates is inclusive and inspiring, making it a joy to be part of. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to explore or deepen their love for acting!”

“Lovely to explore the well tended gardens. Fantastic little additional adventure on the forest walk. With some really stunning architectural prices to discover. The sun dials are amazing, crisp detailing on 400+ year old stonework. More hidden sculpts hint at the monastery that was here before.”

“Tobias and his team were unbelievable and worked their magic for Kobi, saving his life no doubt. The whole facility is wonderful, modern and clean. Reception staff so friendly and helpful. We cannot recommend VSS highly enough. The communication and updates were first class. Genuinely a wonderful place with incredible staff.”

“We were recently on holiday in the beautiful North Berwick when our dog became unwell. We couldn’t quite put our fingers on it as usually we know when he’s having his usual skin and ear issues. All we knew was that he wasnt himself and was in pain. His tail was down, he wanted to be alone, and he yelped if we stroked his back. Being away from home we were worried as not near our usual vet and didn’t know how it would all work. We were seen the same day (midday). The vet conducted a thorough examination as it wasnt an easy one to diagnose. They had his records from our vet too. In the end it was decided he must have a trapped nerve or something (apparently common for his breed and incredibly painful. He’s 8 so we have done well to avoid it until now!). So we were given pain relief for him and advised that if after a week he wasnt better then to come again/go to our vet. Sadly he had to be on bed rest and missed quite a bit of the holiday fun, but a few days on and it’s like nothing had ever happened! Im so thankful to the links veterinary group and implore others to use their services. Thank you so much for getting us our happy guy back!”

“Love Usher Hall. Been here a few times, most recently to see Zak Brown speak about leadership and the 2025 F1 season. A beautiful venue. Reasonable prices. Good seats!”

“For the most part I dislike Stockbridge, finding many places quite pretentious. Vino is one of the exceptions. The staff are exceptional. Friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. Plus they are dog friendly and always have treats ready. Not the cheapest, but the selection is great, and if you really wanted supermarket prices then go to a supermarket. It is a genuine pleasure every time I come here. Couldn't recommend this place higher.”

“Really nice little theatre, first time here for a fringe show very cool place”

“Great college, great mix of courses. Easily accessible with public transport with bus and train stations 5 minutes away”

“Nice and serene environment for education.”

“I can’t thank the medical staff and front of house staff enough. My sprocker Meg was admitted as a emergancy in August with a swollen eye with a foreign body in. Long story short it turned out to be something devastatingly worse. At just 8 years old and no prior indications or anything, her wings were ready but we were not. Meg has never been apart from us, I was worried how she would do being admitted, she was there Saturday to Monday, the staff were amazing, she wasn’t worried she wasn’t down, she maybe didn’t understand but the staff made her feel safe and cared for. The staff were so kind and caring front of house and behind the scenes. Sadly we collected Meg on Monday for one last night at home before she donned her wings with her own favourite vet. The staff kept in touch with us the whole time she was admitted, they kept us informed and kept in touch with our vet as well. We all knew what was going on at every stage. Then after they helped sort the insurance claim and kept in touch, we got a lovely card a few weeks later from the staff that cared for Meg which was beautiful. She had lovely consultants, I met Chloe (eye consultant) and Karen (general med consultant) and though I never met the nurses I heard from staff how much they loved Meg and how she greeted them happily with her “sooky” and behaved well curled on her favourite blanket. The staff here are amazing. Though Meg is no longer with us, it helped knowing they made her happy and comfortable when she was in the hospital and went fretting or worrying. The staff also made sure her “sooky” was with her at all times and her blanket stayed with her as well. Not easy in such a busy environment. The hardest place to have to go knowing what could come but the staff do all they can not just for the animals in their care but to help their humans cope and deal with whatever comes and whatever the outcome might be.”

“Excellent dental practice - very friendly, great care and can always get an appointment even at short notice. Have had teeth aligners and service from Dhevraj and the team has been great. Am delighted with the result and it was much more cost effective than I would have thought. Highly recommended!”

“Had my husbands 50th party here on Friday 26th May 2023 was a fantastic night staff where amazing and so helpful”

“Our kids (boy 11 and girl 14 years) were impressed how the imaginative and creative SJM teachers managed to involve kids, how fast the kids progressed. They easily made friends and enjoyed the breaks in between. We as parents adored the final show - well done and very entertaining. Communication has always been excellent, thanks a lot, Stephen. We highly recommend this SJM activity for a summer program.”

“I had a couple of 121 sessions with Lisa before joining group class. She is very patient with me and broke the stroke down into easy to understand stages. She followed up with a summary of the lesson and tips for practicing on my own. I went from 'mum breaststroke' to a much more efficient breaststroke in a couple of weeks. Not yet perfect but getting there.”

“Fantastic nursery with wonderfully supportive staff and lovely facilities including a great outdoor space. Would really recommend this nursery. My children love being there and have come on in leaps and bounds since starting there.”

“My little girl has just started over the last few months. She is the shyest wee girl that doesn’t ever want to leave my side and not being able to talk yet probably makes it a bit harder for her. However after about 4 weeks of her crying every time I left her, she now lets go of my hand with no issues. She comes out showing me what she’s learned each class. She spends time in between ballet and musical theatre doing the things she done there. I’ve already noticed more confidence in her in this short time. Miss Amber and the staff/girls at forefront have been amazing and their patience has put trust in me to leave her with them. I’m excited to see where her forefront journey takes her!”
