I felt extremely comfortable with trying to speak and interact throughout each session, I believe this has something to do with our wonderful teacher Florentine as well! She was very patient and good at offering a good environment to try and learn as much as possible.

It has more positive aspects than negative ones. I like the building and its facilities. My teacher was committed to teaching. The administrative organization is high-level management. A step forward. Nevertheless, when it is coming time for the final exam, things are going weird. The speaking test is located at the beginning, in the middle, or almost when you are finishing your writing test. That is awful!! How can you destroy the concentration of a person who is dealing with a new language by interrupting the writing test in such a way? Let the student finish the written test first and then the speaking one can follow. Also, you can start with the speaking test, and then later on let everybody do his/her written test. That interruption is so annoying and unfair! This is what I do not like.

Thank you for you review, Patricia! We are glad to hear of your positive experience with our management and facilities, and we also appreciate your feedback about the structure of the final exam. You are correct that sometimes the timing in which the speaking and written exams take place can overlap. We recommend giving your feedback/preference to your teacher as they have the ability to schedule around this for the final exam. If you have any further questions about it, we would be happy to discuss it with you! Please feel free to send us an email at trainers@uvatalen.nl.

Excellent (back in October, sorry a little late). I learned a lot; and it was intensive and fun. The teacher was superb...kept everyone in the class engaged and was very supportive.

It covered all the relevant topics in detail during the 10 sessions. The most useful part of the course was that the teacher dedicated a part of each lecture to the practical work and then gave us individual feedback with suggestions for improvement and further development.
