•  “I had a wonderful experience at the school and learned a lot.  I particularly enjoyed the positive and energetic teachers who were fully committed to the success of the students.  I appreciated their sense of humor as well, which always makes learning of a new language easier.  There was a good balance between grammatical exercises and practical conversation.  I would join the school again, time permitting, and would definitely recommend it to others.”
