Best resort for lessons?

On next years trip with my ski buddy 'we' would like to get some decent teaching & was wondering if you could recommend some resorts & associated ski schools.
Have read good reviews on 'easiski' at L2A & Eureka at Serre Chevalier; wondered if there were any more out there that deliver a really good teaching experience.
My preferred country is Italy but willing to try anywhere in Europe although not to sure about 'eastern' Europe ( & would ideally like to wait for snow before committing, unless resort is 'snow sure').
Thanks in advance

i had my first lesson in the uk in Manchester chill factor,
but my real good lessons was in les menuire, I was lucky to have a brilliant teacher, because some teacher are a waste of space and money, so i would recommend you to take a name of a teacher which was recommended

Frostbite, I suggest you contact Charlotte Swift quite soon, as she now only takes small specialised groups of 1-4 I think.

TDC in Val D'Isere has a good reputation as well as BASS in Les Gets and Megeve.

If you want a weeks tuition, perhaps Snoworks might fit the bill?

I had a great teacher in Sauze d'Oulx two years on the trot. He was called Corrado. A very sprightly guy of about 65.

I don't know the calibre of the other instructors there though. I was the only person in our group to have private lessons.

I sorted my lessons out with the ski school via email a couple of months before we arrived.

frosbite - roughly what is your current level /ability and what areas are you looking to improve the most... eg if it's off-piste skiing you might want to go to a different place than if you have , say 1 weeks skiing

Have approx 6 weeks slope time; can ski pretty much anything up to 'blacks', although not over keen on steep reds & above!!

Took the following from an ability section and probably fits me ( although I'm confident on medium to difficult reds my technique is making it hard for me so need to work on this);
You are fine skiing blue pistes parallel and are confident on easy reds, but do not feel so good on steeper reds, or icy/bumpy sections.

Charlotte at Easiski in Les Deux Alpes is definitely recommened, she taught my brother the 08/09 season and he came on hugely, well recommended!

The best ski instructor I have ever had, out of about 12, is a wonderful French lady called Frederique, who works for Prosneige in Val Thorens. She was still there last year, because I had a look on their website and they still had a photo of her up. She speaks pretty good English as well.

I don't know that it's possible to pick a ski school though, because in my experience there have been good and bad instructors in the same ski school. The other (male) Prosneige instructor I had was fairly awful.

Perhaps with private lessons you can pick your instructor, if they're not teaching a class at the time.

Best of luck with finding a good one :D
