“I have known Flying Turtle since I still was in Brazil and couldn’t wait for the moment to be back to my Drama classes in Dublin. Putting the teaching of English together with Drama was an absolutely incredible idea. If you have the opportunity to attend this course, don’t think twice, DO IT. The structure of the school is wonderful and the teacher is an angel on earth. You will love it as I loved. Hope to be back soon to attend a regular course”.
