Very satisfied with the results. One of the best schools to learn French Language with native teachers. Since pandemic, I was worried about my classes, but they started online course (P.s. You can still enroll for offline courses). To be honest , this was my first online class. I am looking forward to taking more online sessions. The experience of this class has being nothing but positive. The teachers are very supportive and helpul.
