Britta Amber is the best English trainer I have ever had. She is very smart and always adapts the sessions to your personal language deficiencies. She is very flexible and reliable which is very important as an employed person. In general, Britta has a nice personality and takes the teaching assignment very seriously. At the same time, she gives you the feeling that you are learning a foreign language taught by a good friend.
