I really enjoyed the lessons with Eva, I learned many new things. The fact that she spoke only Spanish with me, I could provoke even more. I will gladly recommend the school as it will help you a lot.

"The student is a French beginner and also does not speak Spanish that well, and she is worried that she will not be able to understand her teacher."

Frida Test, student from USA
Natalie Francoise, Idealog school representative

No problem she mustn’t worry about that,the classes are held in Spanish but we would give her a teacher who speaks French to translate or explain whatever she ‘d need.
