    Karen L — Dec 2011

  • our teacher Martia was kind and enthusiastic.

    Liverpool, German Evening Course 10 weeks

    Kathryn M — Oct 2011

  • i was overall impressed with the way the course was structured and the way the two hours was kept lively and interesting (it has to be like that to maintain one's attention after a day's work).

    I felt that I learned a lot and revised a lot of dormant French; at level 3 we could not maintain a totally French environment, although I think we could have tried more to say anything that we wanted to say in French.

    I thought Genevieve was very encouraging and positive to everyone in the class creating a good atmosphere and building confidence.

  • Alexander was an excellent teacher. He prepared well- worked hard and adjusted the format to suit our skill level. It moved at exactly the right pace.

    London Holborn-Russell Square, French Holiday Survival Weekend Course

    HELEN W — Aug 2011

  • The course was one of the greatest language courses I have ever had. Angela was simply amazing, she reacted very flexible to the students' demands. I really enjoyed that she taught the whole course in Italian, and even explained all grammar without using English. I feel that I can understand the spoken language better now, and feel more confident myself when speaking.
