“I found the size of the classes very good, 5-6 people. "Being thrown in at the deep end ;-) Helpfulness, flexibility”
Disliked
“Mir etwas unpersönlich, hab mir erhofft, dass wir öfter zusammen was unternehmen, selbst wenn es nur Mittag oder Abendessen gehen ist. Mehr gemeinsam was unternehmen, ohne zusätzliche Kosten.”
Review details
Quality of teaching / language progress: The teaching staff are very nice and pleasant. It was important for me that the teacher also spoke English. That was the case twice out of 3 teachers. I liked the communication lesson best. It was nice to talk about surprisingly spontaneous topics rather than just talking about myself and my life in Colombia.
