Brunna said: I really appreciate how the teacher tried to help everyone in the class. Of course in 8 weeks it’s impossible to achieve a high level of English if you don’t come through. I think the topics, which were presented by Ana, have a high value for whom want use day by day. I liked the course. Unfortunately the day doesn’t fit well for me, maybe in another opportunity.
