Mandarin
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!

Japanese
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!

Greek
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.

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!

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.
