Vaig començar anant a classes quan encara no era una academia, havia avorrit completament l'anglès i poc a poc vaig recuperar les ganes d'aprendre'n. Ara desprès de tants anys, només puc dir GRÀCIES.

Les classes són de molt profit, a part de tenir una part teòrica també es posa en pràctica la parla i la pronunciació de l’anglès, amb excel·lents professionals. Molt recomenable.

When I moved to Girona I couldn't speak a word of Spanish but by the time I finished a 30 hour course at English Girona I was having basic conversations in Spanish, was able to order food in restaurants, interact in shops... I would really recommend the school to any beginners who want to learn Spanish.

Fent classes a English Girona he aconseguit millorar el meu anglès i a tenir la suficient motivació per seguir-lo aprenent. Les classes són molt profitoses i dinàmiques i he notat millora tan a nivell d'speaking com de gramàtica.
