Hello,
I thoroughly enjoyed my studies. Although my progress was too slow for my liking, the individual lessons helped me develop automaticity in speaking, expand my vocabulary, and improve my reading skills. Listening comprehension remains the most challenging aspect. Thank you.

This first year of classes with Talk and Chalk Idiomas was a very good experience for me. Danish is not an easy language, and Talk and Chalk put me in touch with a teacher who gave me a good method, encouragement, and the desire to persevere. A big thank you to Elias for his very educational and always interesting classes!
Great platform for learning a new language! Getting in touch with my teacher went very well and the team is very responsive to any questions or problems that need to be resolved! I recommend it.
I recommend this training center with my eyes closed. Very professional and attentive. I was lucky enough to be able to work with a very educational teacher. I thank the center wholeheartedly.
