Absolutely fantastic class this morning. Sylvia made a lot of effort to research Modigliani for us. Informative and inspiring class
- Sian O.★★★★★
I really enjoyed this class; it was the first time I have spoken French out loud for maybe 10 years, so I was terrified, but Silvia was kind and patient and gave good corrections in the chat. I think I overestimated my level so I will book a A1 class next time.
