Alessandro ValentiniSeptember 4, 2026I can wholeheartedly recommend ILS Aarau and, in particular, my English teacher Angelica! With her support, I prepared for the Cambridge C1 Advanced exam and passed it successfully—in the end, I was even just two points short of the C2 level. To me, that shows just how much I was able to learn and improve during that time. Angelica isn’t just an incredibly competent teacher; she also manages to make every lesson interesting, varied, and highly educational at the same time. The lessons were never boring—we were able to laugh, have great conversations, and still work very specifically on my English and exam preparation. I felt very comfortable in her lessons right from the start. Many thanks to Angelica for the great support, the patience, and all the knowledge she shared with me. I couldn’t have asked for better preparation for the C1 exam. I highly recommend her! 😊Posted on Google
Naida MilanovicAugust 29, 2026We are extremely satisfied with Suada and the work she’s done with our son. In a relatively short time, he has developed many new skills with her and made great progress. We especially appreciate how well Suada manages to spark his interest and motivate him to participate and learn. She keeps the lessons varied and combines learning with fun in a wonderful way, so our son looks forward to going to her classes. It’s clear that she works with a great deal of patience, dedication, and enthusiasm, and that she tailors her approach specifically to him. We are truly happy and grateful to have Suada as our son’s teacher and can wholeheartedly recommend her.Posted on Google
Odete GrössingerAugust 11, 2026I’d like to give a very special shout-out to our teacher, Alla. ❤️ I really enjoy her classes! The way she explains the material is simply fantastic: Everything is explained so clearly, comprehensibly, and simply that you really understand the material and actually learn something—not just memorize it. I also greatly appreciate her patience, her dedication, and the way she structures her lessons. She’s a teacher who truly makes a difference in our learning and makes the classes both enjoyable and motivating. Thank you so much, dear Alla, for your patience, your support, and your dedication! 🌷 I really hope that you’ll stay with us after this module and continue teaching us in the next ones. It would be a great pleasure to keep learning from you!Posted on Google
Esen SavasJuly 13, 2026Thanks, that's great. Well organized.Posted on Google
Sidney RuefJune 24, 2026It took me several years to find a French course that really starts from scratch. Now I’m at Level A2 and I’m totally thrilled. The teachers are simply outstanding—you can tell they really enjoy teaching. They go above and beyond for every student and make the lessons very engaging and effective. I highly recommend it if you want to learn French properly! 😊Verified by: TrustindexThe Trustindex Verified badge is the universal symbol of trust.
