"We are very happy with Elle's teaching approach. Her classes are very well-prepared, age-appropriate, interesting and fun. My daughter is improving her command of English at a steady pace and is always motivated to learn during the lesson. I could not recommend Elle's teaching enough. Thank you FamiLingua!"
