I got to know Avenue English through my brother-in-law who studied at the Johannesburg campus. It was a surprise to discover that the school had opened a branch in Cape Town. I took a two-month English course with qualified, patient teachers and friendly classmates who always explained things in the best possible way so that everyone could understand. Thanks to Vivi for finding a place for my husband and me to stay so I could continue studying at the school for longer! Before taking the course, I was very afraid of speaking English and making mistakes. However, when I arrived at the school, I felt so natural and welcomed that I made great progress in a short amount of time, going from zero to ten! I am grateful to Avenue English for this positive experience and will always keep the teachers and friends I made close to my heart!
