Having just passed an exam in Afrikaans, I again wish to thank my teacher, Rushni, for her very effective and top-class teaching methods as well as her patient and flexible manner, always able to adapt to my needs and progress individually and flexibly every day.An outstanding Afrikaans teacher and a Cambridge-licensed English teacher. Thank you, Rushni. I recommend you to anyone who truly wishes to learn Afrikaans or English.

I spent a week on educational leave in Afrikaans at LEO. Emilie organized everything very well and was always approachable. My teacher was Rushni and, in addition to the language, she was able to introduce me to many cultural aspects of South Africa. Since I had one-on-one lessons and we got along so well, we did the lessons at her house in the morning. In the afternoon we did something together and incorporated Afrikaans. We were very communicative and productive that I actually received the A1 certificate after a week. Ek is super bly daroor and baie Dankie weer aan Rushni and Emilie. I'm so happy about that and thank you very much again, Rushni and Emilie!!!
