I wanted to refresh and improve my Spanish and I contacted Inigo because he 's certified in luinguistic.
Inigo is very patient, professional and helpful. He provides well structured lessons, in a very friendly and good atmosphere which is really favorable for learning a foreign language. The lesson material is built around several support such as text, audio, video, etc. You can't be bored and it's nice to switch between the different materials along the hour.
He's also fluent in French and English so he can switch from a language to another for any explanation if needed.
I really enjoy my lessons with him and I definitely recommand him!
