 Poster: A snowHead
|
I have been asked by my boss as to which ski school is "the best" in Les Gets, not having any experience of the resort I am seeking your collective wisdom, Can anybody recommend a ski school in Les Gets?
There will be a few young children looking for group lessons and also a couple of adults that are beginners/early intermidiates that are looking for private tuition.
A quick search of the web has produced
Tim Scott
British Alpine Ski School
and the local tourist office recommended
- École du Ski Français
- École de Ski Internationale Ski Plus
- École de Ski 360 International
- École de Ski Ile des Enfants
Does anyone in here have any experience of any of these schools (be it good or bad...)

Tim Scott was the guy that taught me (and my 2 brothers), but that was when he was a BASS instructor. He as now gone private I understand.
IIRC it was 5 mornings, with afternoons up to us what we did (ie practice what we learned that morning). Group size was small (6 to start with, 1 dropped out, 2 moved to a higher class as they were 2nd weekers, and 1 from Morzine came to join us after a day or so), so it was virtually a private lesson. Certainly better (and worth the money) than having a group of 12-15 playing 'follow my leader' with an instructor that doesn't speak english properly.
I hear that BASS and Tim Scott get booked out quickly.
There's also Alpine Learning Curves, but have no expereince of them. Try adding www and .co.uk for the URL.
Can't comment on the others.

I don't know who's now working in Les Gets for BASS. There used to be a very good couple Fraser and Sandie Gormli there, but I don't know if they still are. A quick look at http://www.britishskischool.com/lesgets.htm didn't give any "team" info.
