I had never studied Italian, and my teacher was extremely knowledgeable, patient and very responsible, always making sure I was comprehending and developing new vocabulary and grammar skills each week. I recommend Global Village!

I've checked out Alliances in 3 different cities now, and this is hands down the best one that I…read morehave visited. This community is so vibrant and jam-packed with activities and events: classes, book clubs, movie clubs, wine tastings, speaker events, parties ... you name it. They offer classes that cover the whole spectrum of experience levels, with beginners classes that start students from scratched and advanced courses that have students engaging in political debate. Most of the classes are 6-week sessions and cost $174, which is such a steal when considering the breakdown of university courses (mine came out to be $50+ a class based on tuition and class hours). I'm a fan of the "casse-croutes," which are $10 lunch classes that run from 12 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. and are scheduled throughout the week and have different themes (music, current events, etc.) They operate on a drop-in basis, so they're good for people who have unpredictable schedules like me and can't commit to the regular courses. They have 2 book clubs, one that finishes a book each month, and another that reads at a more leisurely pace. These meetings are free for members! The Alliance also offers DELF testing and private instruction. Plus, they have a library of books that members can borrow from and peruse. Awesome place. Great community. Really wonderful cultural center. Note that they are closed on Fridays!

I started doing kung fu here in summer 2016, and it has been fantastic! Shifu is a great teacher,…read moreand it's a welcoming community whether you're new to martial arts or have many years of experience under your belt. Classes are a good mix of warm-up, conditioning exercises, drills, and forms practice (and sometimes sparring), with enough one-on-one attention to take your kung fu to the next level. Highly recommend for kids and adults!
