TÉMOIGNAGES
J’ai vraiment apprécié étudier à alpha.b et ces 2 semaines sont passées très vite. Je suis extrêmement reconnaissante envers mon professeur Sandrine, qui est juste géniale et fabuleuse ! Une expérience exceptionnelle et un professeur vraiment amusant ! Alpha.b prend vraiment le temps de s’assurer que chaque étudiant est heureux et qu’ils ont la meilleure expérience de Nice possible.
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.
