Very clear and concise instructions and explanations. Love the resources and pics and diagrams. Makes me feel confident and comfortable in learning a new language. Great tips to learn by driving, cycling or with others. Setting tasks is brilliant! Resources in the self-assessment workbook are so valuable.... Michelle D., Glasgow
