“Very sociable environment”
Details of the review
Other comments: In fact the only problem that occurred was due to its proximity to Christmas, meaning the previous week to close the school three days of lessons have been replaced with other activities in which our ability to learn has been greatly reduced. This is understandable for those who make long-term course, but for those intense two weeks ago and paid handsomely even three days, losing is not pleasant. Thanks
