"Learning
English is more fun and effective when you learn from the right teacher. My three-month
intense language program with Joan was one of happiest times of my life, and
my English has taken a great leap since. Thanks to her I earned my MBA last year,
and I am employed and paid well by an international company."
"I met Joan in Hungary when I was a student at international house. We were taught by foreign teachers whose mother tongue was English. The best teacher was Joan:), she was my favourite, because her classes were dynamic, enjoyable, and we never got bored. We played a lot of games which we really enjoyed but at the same time we learned so much. I'm convinced she is the best teacher in the world :) Joan makes you laugh and learn at the same time!"
