English teacher Sue Johnston
Orange International developed an English training programme with Lingua for French managers. The Course Director, George Sharpley, adapted the tuition to the personality, position and skills of each manager. I had personally the opportunity to attend the same course, recommended by our HR Division. I was very impressed by the professional level and complementary skills of the teaching team … I also wish to underline the friendly atmosphere of the tuition and hosting. For me, my unexpected pleasure was to discover the game of cricket.
