Ski Privat, the 'other' ski school in Wengen, offering only private lessons.
Anyone used them, any comments / feedback please.
Received some very useful info from SnowHead Ronald (thank you Ronald) about the 'main' Swiss school, but before jumping in just want to check out the alternative. Plus it takes the Swiss school an absolute age to respond to any emails and Privat were seem to be much more on the ball.
Principally looking for private tuition for 6 y.o with learning difficulties, 2 hrs per day for probably 3 days, but also private (2 to 1) tuition for a couple of skiers and boarders (seperate lessons, of course !) prob 3 hr lessons.
thanks.

masmith, Mrs Axs and I and our two teenage girls used Ski Privat at half term and found them to be excellent. Christian, our young (British) instructor was very helpful. His English was flawless too! Costs were the same as the official school, but Ski Privat were able to give us private lessons in the mornings, whereas the official school only had availability in the afternoons. That was the deciding factor for us. Definitely worth considering IMHO.

AxsMan, thanks for the recommendation. Suppose you didn't get to see/hear any other Privat instructors, guess the majority must speak pretty good English though.

masmith, Although I've not used them myself I can't recall anyone ever saying anything bad about their instructors, typically with Wengen finding someone to teach you who can speak good english is not usually a problem

masmith, Used them for the last 5 years. All the instructors very good. If you have any nervous lady skiers ask for Tino

riverman, And if you have (late) teenage daughters ask for Christian. I think he has replaced SMALLZOOKEEPER in the axsettes affections
