"My stay at ESL was fantastic! The course was good and the teachers were motivating and professional. Especially the DELF preparation course I took was very useful. Through participating practicing the different parts of the DELF exam and learning strategy “how to make them” prepared me well for my DELF exam. Living in a student’s apartment gave me the independency I was looking for and I had a great time with my roommates from other countries."
