Doreen is a lovely teacher. I loved spending time with her in London. Her home is very pleasant and comfortable, and I felt great throughout the entire trip. The lessons were very interesting and well prepared. She spent each afternoon with me, visiting London and showing me the must-see spots around the city. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience. I highly recommend Doreen and Intuition Languages!

Response from the owner: Thank you very much for your review, Théo. We're delighted that you had such a great course with our teacher Doreen in London.

It was the best experience I've had in my life. I lived like a true Englishwoman for three weeks and I had a lot of fun with my host family. Ken and Mary are lovely people; they put me at ease right from the start and made me feel at home. Mary is really nice and good as a teacher. Her lessons were always different and interesting. Ken is really kind, helpful and a great cook. I also met the various family members, who were really friendly. I visited lots of places and I learned a lot of english. At the end, when we said goodbye, I was very sad to leave cos’ I couldn’t have had a better family. They remained in my heart. I hope to see them again soon.

Response from the owner: Hi Margherita, we're delighted to hear that you had such a great time on your InTuition Languages course.

Moira and her family were exceptional. Very hospitable and kind. Moira was an excellent and very initiative teacher. Moira is also a very good cook. The food was varied and very good. Her house is beautiful and very large. Close to York. Don't have any doubts about having a study experience with her.As regards the organisation, the opinion is extremely positive. My daughter's English has really improved and he has had some important personal growth experiences.
