The private classes were excellent and adapted to my needs. My two teachers Alberto and Eva were very good. The school location was good.
The apartment was noisy and way too expensive for the small room. As I arrived, I got almost no information about the apartment. I also had to buy some basic stuff, such as a broom.
I really enjoyed from the beginning these school. The teachers were good prepared.
As soon as all the new students had passed the placement test, we were distributed to the appropriate classes and off we went.We had different teachers. Which is very important for pronunciation and hearing.
The teachers were always punctual, well prepared and the program was varied.
I can really recommend this school !
The location is perfect. 5 minutes next to a metro station. The rooms are bright and clean and really pleasant.
So if I had anything small to complain about: It would be great if in the entrance area a machine for drinks and coffee, tea. Possible sandwiches.
You only have 5 minutes break between the lessons. Once 20 minutes but you had to take something with you.A really good school and the learning success is visible and audible. Even after only one week!!
Thank you
