This first year of classes with Talk and Chalk Idiomas was a very good experience for me. Danish is not an easy language, and Talk and Chalk put me in touch with a teacher who gave me a good method, encouragement, and the desire to persevere. A big thank you to Elias for his very educational and always interesting classes!
Super plate-forme pour apprendre une nouvelle langue ! La mise en contact avec mon professeur s’est très bien déroulée et l’équipe est très réactive pour toutes questions ou problèmes à résoudre ! Je recommande
Je conseille les yeux fermés ce centre de formation. Très professionnel très à l'écoute. J'ai eu la chance de pouvoir travailler avec un professeur très pédagogue. Je remercie de tout cœur le centre.
