"Fantastic"

Mariko Shimizu, student from USA

I loved both my teacher and my apartment. My teacher was one-to-one individual conversation teacher, so I requested more hours to take trips with him all around Mauritius. He was very flexible and accommodating for all of my requests. I talked in French the whole 2 weeks, and my French became very fluent, thanks my fabulous teacher!

The apartment was so close to the beach and very convenient place for shopping, restaurants, etc. I loved everything for 2 weeks of stay! I am very sure I will be back there again!
