Overall very good experience with Lingu and having no hesitation to refer it to others
The teacher and her way of teaching. The course pattern and the material.
a bit intensive
The course teacher - Benedicte has an unique way of teacher. I would prefer her as my next level teacher.
Lærerne er flinke å foklare selv om veldig intenst og vanskelig.
