I had such a great time during our conversation class today! I’m feeling more and more comfortable and confident thanks to her guidance, her attitude, and the way she teaches. Every session with Brends is both inspiring and motivating — I always leave the class with a genuine desire to speak more English.
Can’t wait for our next session! 🌟

Brenda is the best English teacher I ever had (and I had a lot of them).
Patiently accompanied by her, and thanks to her great pedagogy, I was able to reach my goal : feeling at ease in any kind of English conversations.
Her way of teaching is precise, lively and well structured.
As a psychotherapist graduated from University, I can assert that Brenda has an inner sense of psychology and human relationship. So she perfectly knows how to attune herself to her student.
I do recommend her to everyone who really needs to improve his/her English

Brends is fantastic! I had a very important job interview where I needed to create and present a full business case in English in front of the entire team. She guided me through every single step of the preparation process, helping me refine my speech, choose the right business terminology, and build the confidence I needed to deliver it successfully.
Thanks to her support and expertise I felt fully prepared and also passed the selection process and got the job!!!
