Joey said: The course was great for students with beasic knowledge of English. However, the best part of it is that the tutor was always well prepared for each session. He cared about each student in the class and endavoured to make everyone being part of the class. The teaching style encouraged students to be engaged in the course. I would like to take more english courses from this tutor if there is any.

Ana Paula said: Charmaine is really a great teacher. I intend to take another course with her to learn even more.

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.
