The approach of the teachers, who were very patient, flexible and encouraged conversation.
The classes gave me a lot of freedom to express myself and the opportunity to verify my skills against the group - I will definitely book again next year

The school is really good both in terms of the type of teaching, which is very varied, and the teachers. They are all very willing to meet every need.
Also of note is the excellent location and the cleanliness and general pleasantness of the environment.

The school had a nice vibe and everyone was very kind and friendly. My professor is excellent and helped me a lot, not just with Spanish but with the challenges one encounters while living in different country for a month.
Very well managed and professional in every way.
