I think the experience was very positive to imporve my English but not I expected.
My English improved a lot bacause I was spoken English quite often, but there were a lot of people from Germany, Italy, France, Portugal and Spain.
However there were a lot of people from USA, England, Scotland, South Africa so I heart a lot of different types of English.

The scottish accent takes a wee bit of getting used to, but as time goes on it gets easier. People are friendly enough.

The Scottish accent takes a while to learn to listen but is really not that difficult to understand. Excluding some (older) locals, I really had no trouble with the language.

We are most of the time with international students so it is not easy to improve our English.

Most communication happens with other foreigners. This is not such a big problem when you're learning the basics, but it's not very efficient to improve your language skills if you're starting at a (relatively) higher level... However, practicing a lot has always been a good exercise.
