The introductory French class at CVO has been a delight. Our instructor, born in France, has been…read morediligent in explaining the differences between "Belgian" French and "French" French, and her explanations of pronunciation have been infinitely better than those from my instructor in college many years ago. Would that she taught the next level too! My only complaint would be the books...there are three (workbook, textbook and syllabus), and they should have been combined into one book. Having three manuals just causes confusion, and they're poorly organized. Furthermore, when I registered for class, I was told that books were included in the cost, but when I got to class, I had to fork over another 40 euros to buy them.

I am very dissapointed with the English course. I wanted to achieve full proficiency in English and…read morethe examination teacher insisted that I do a specific level. Several times during the test I have been told that the level would be advanced but it the end, it turned out to be close to basic. No refund was possible (although I was clearly mislead) and I just had to come to peace with the thought that this was a bad investment. [I also did a French class, and that was ok]
