“I needed to learn a lot of French very quickly for immigration purposes, and I worked with Iva in weekly one-on-one lessons for about 8–9 months. Iva was always thorough, respectful, encouraging, and honest. Her instruction was flexible, clear, and always enjoyable. Thanks to Iva, I successfully reached my goals. In less than 10 months, I went from knowing zero French to B1 proficiency, and I could not have done that without Iva's expertise.”
“I had a great experience preparing for the TEF exam with Iva! She was incredibly helpful, patient, and supportive throughout the process. The preparation materials were clear, well-structured, and really targeted the skills needed for the test. I felt much more confident going into the exam thanks to her guidance. Highly recommended for anyone preparing for a French language exam!”
“I am so happy to have found Iva to help me with language classes; she has a professional, structured and kind approach that makes learning feel good and progress feel steady. I have already recommended Iva to friends and family and will continue to do so, as she is truly great at what she does and I feel lucky to have a teacher like her!”
