Learning Chinese with Mai Sim has been an absolute joy! Her classes blend a friendly and warm atmosphere with deep knowledge and expertise in the language. Mai Sim is always prepared to handle any questions I throw her way and has taught me so much, not only about the language but also about Chinese customs and culture. Everything about the school has been amazing, and I feel so lucky to have found them. Highly recommend!

Really enjoying the class. Yuri is passionate and makes the course very interesting. Not only do we learn the language but Yuri shares the culture of Japan. Really enjoying every class.

Marion mixes up both oral and written language very well. Being a native speaker is a distinct advantage and I appreciate her ‘old school’ approach to learning. She is superb and I cannot wait for next term to start, hopefully with Marion!

Greek has significant differences from English, including its alphabet and sentence structure​, so it is a challenging language. I started my course with online classes but I quickly switched to meeting my teacher, Vangelis, face to face at the Centre - far more productive and effective. Vangelis has widely based the learning experience on my objectives to communicate with the locals when I am in Greece. I have ​developed a good knowledge of elementary grammar and memorised useful vocabulary​. I always look forward to the opportunity to speak Greek on Fridays.

Hi, Juri is great at presenting grammar in a memorable way and bringing to life some memorable ways of remembering Japanese symbols or cultural practices - all of which enhances the experience. I would like to see a little bit of simple 'testing' so that we might take that away and practice ourselves as a useful reminder periodically. Also I'd like a little help with learning some Japanese symbols in the sidelines. Juri however is a very competent and engaging teach with whom I feel confident and I look forward to her sessions - she is always able to handle all questions admirably. She is a pleasure to work with! The venue struggles for fresh air and temperature regulation (often flies) but most importantly the quality of the fluorescent lights is very poor - I am able to pick up a slight flickering in the frequency (which I know is invisible to some) so they are very offputting and take away from the experience. A common room for tea would be good too!

The course is excellent, Rocio moves at a great pace but constantly recaps and checks we understand. She is very patient and builds confidence by encourage lots of speaking.

Very enjoyable and instructive set of one-to-one sessions. No complaints at all. It's an old building so the rooms and waiting area are just a touch 'worn' but perfectly acceptable.

Great lessons, Jean-Luc is very patient and good fun. Only marked the facilities down to 4 stars as it makes the other scores more credible! See you in September!
