"Wonderful"

OFELIA BARROS, student from Spain

This course helped me a lot because I needed to improve my fluent speaking skills. And I had to speak all the time in English with my classmates and teachers. The place is very well located and equipped. It has a cafeteria with a mini soccer table. And then you go out to the garden, and at the back there is a ping pong table. I liked it very much.
