Testimonies

Ich habe es wirklich genossen, bei alpha.b zu studieren, und die zwei Wochen sind sehr schnell vergangen. Ich bin meiner Lehrerin Sandrine extrem dankbar, sie ist einfach genial und fabelhaft! Eine großartige Erfahrung und eine wirklich lustige Lehrerin! Alpha.b nimmt sich wirklich Zeit, um sicherzustellen, dass jeder Schüler glücklich ist und die bestmögliche Erfahrung in Nizza hat.

Je suis venue à Nice avec la Sorbonne d’Abu Dhabi.

C’était une expérience incroyable que je n’oublierai jamais. Tout le monde était très accueillant. Je ne veux même pas rentrer chez moi :'(

Le cours avec Priscilla s’est très bien passé, j’ai beaucoup appris et c’était vraiment amusant.

Les cours sont tellement bien structurés et on sent que les professeurs font chaque jour des efforts pour que l’on puisse améliorer notre français.

L’établissement est très bien organisé. Cela veut dire que l’on peut télécharger une application sur laquelle on voit le professeur, la salle et les heures de cours.

Bref, je suis très content d’avoir pris mes cours à l’école alpha.b.
