Evening.

Just about to book lessons for my other half in Peisey Vallandry for january, and wandered if anyone has any experience or knowledge of the above mentioned ski schools?

She had lessons last year with ESF, and found was impressed with them, so we were automatically going to book with them again. However, i have heard New Generation are superb, and can work wonders with new skiers. My other half wants to be able to ski with everyone else for the afternoon of this year, as she is the only one who has lessons.

So, is it worth paying the extra money for New Generation? ( 135 Euros more)

All opinions appriciated.

Personally if you can afford the extra I would book New Gen - they are superb. I may be a little biased as my son trained with them last year -but the groups are so much smaller, in peak weeks they will have trainees helping out and all the instructors speak excellent English. ESF can be good but if you end up in a group of French they are not quite as thorough with you.

Thanks for the reply. I`m happy to pay the extra, if it`s worth it. The general feel i was getting, was that New Generation have a superb reputation, and if it helps the other half improve at a faster and more comitent rate, it would be worth the extra. On the other hand, if they are not that different to ESF, it`d be a waste of 135 Euros.......and i`m not keen on wasting money!! :oops: )
