Les cours sont clairs. Les enseignantes sont à l’écoute. L’école est agréable et accueillante. Je le recommanderai à d’autres personnes. Merci pour tout. Parfait, Maria est vraiment sympathique, son appartement est confortable et pratique.
Mi piace molto questa scuola! Il corso è buono: molto chiaro e ho imparato molto. Gli insegnanti sono gentile e molto buono ad insegnare. Mi piace anche le attività extrascolastiche.
