„I have been taking lessons with International House, specifically with Ms. Andreescu for approximately a year.  First of all, I would like to thank her for being flexible with her scheduling and accommodating my work schedule and family obligations.  I have really enjoyed learning the Romanian language along with the incorporation of the Romania culture in our lessons.

When I first came to lessons with Iulia I had a decent foundation in the Romanian language. So it was greatly appreciated on my part her willingness to tailor our lessons to the level she felt appropriate with my understanding.  There is no doubt that I have improved in my language and grammatical skills, along with a better understanding of Romanian culture.  

I appreciate her willingness to go off script and work on the things I feel I need improvement in as well as talk about a variety of different topics thus helping my conversational skills and vocabulary.  There is no doubt that I will continue to take lessons with her as long as my stay in Romania permits.  ”

„Am vorbit română acasă în Olanda, dar când a venit vorba să mă mut în România, am făcut pasul și m-am înscris la o școală de limbă română. Ca repatriată, aveam nevoie de un alt stil de învățat, lecții făcute pe măsură. În două săptămâni am învățat română într-un mod intensiv. Profesoara Andreescu m-a ajutat să pun gramatica la punct, m-a ajutat să nu mai vorbesc ca o repatriată, doar ca o adevarată nativă. Le mulțumesc Iuliei și celor de la International House pentru asta.”

„I’d warmly recommend anyone to study Romanian with IH Bucharest, the material provided is pertinent and the scheduling is flexible. My teacher, Miss Iulia Andreescu, is a competent and sympathetic teacher who balanced the content of each class based on my requests in combination with what she saw I needed to work on. The part that I appreciated the most was that she included many elements about Romanian culture, this helped me to interpret the behaviour of my Romanian colleagues and the outcomes of business situations. I will unfortunately leave Romania earlier than expected, but if I would stay I’d definitely continue studying with IH Bucharest.”

„Everyone at International House is professional and competent, from the staff working in the education and accounting areas to the teachers in the classrooms. When requesting the courses, whether Romanian or English, you are flexible and understanding towards our needs. The teachers always receive extremely good feedback from our staff. Their approach to the lessons is focused on the students learning as effectively as possible through a variety of methods, keeping the students interested and engaged.”

„As a General Manager of the bank I would like to express my gratitude for the excellent quality of your services. Each lesson has been a great opportunity to acquire new information and develop my skills in a very pleasant and useful manner.”

 „I would like to praise our teacher, Andra, who has been teaching me Romanian for a few months. Andra keeps the lessons fresh and covers topics which are both useful and interesting. She is always punctual and well prepared. She is patient and has a good understanding of Romanian culture. She has covered both grammar and vocabulary and she is willing to take time to ensure that I fully understand the content.”

“I was pleasantly impressed that, besides English, Mădălina also speaks German, which for me, as a German citizen and native speaker, was really helpful. Mădălina proved very flexible and responsive to my requests and needs. Her behaviour and attitude are very open, and her teaching method is very dynamic and interactive. Moreover, she provides lots of opportunities for me to have contact with the Romanian language and learn more about Romania as a country.”

"Having studied four foreign languages in the past twenty years, I can state with full confidence that Diana is by far the best language teacher I have ever had. Diana was professional and timely, which certainly helps to build a good rapport with her students. Once in the class, her classes were dynamic and fun, Diana used a variety of approaches to learn new words and grammar. She tied this into examples that I could use in my day to day interactions in Romania, that were immediately helpful to me getting around in Romania. Furthermore Diana is a great ambassador for her country and culture, always sharing outings, information and traditions with her students. Having Diana as my teacher has certainly contributed profoundly to my integration and enjoyment of my first year in Romania. Thank you Diana!!"

"I have been a student of Diana’s for little over a year now, I have enjoyed the lessons immensely as Diana makes them fun, either through using IH study books or providing her own worksheets or picture games.  I have also learnt a number of different interesting Romanian traditions while studying the language.

 I feel I have progressed throughout the year due to Diana’s professional, calm and patient approach, which i find has helped encourage me to continue learning the Romanian language."

"Am locuit in Romania mai mult de 4 ani si in tot acest timp am studiat limba romana cu International House Bucharest. Profesoara mea, Diana, a pregatit lectii interesante si distractive. Pentru mine, abilitatea de a vorbi in limba romana a facut ca experienta mea in tara sa fie mai interesanta si mi-a permis sa inteleg mai bine cultura si istoria Romaniei. 

Multumesc, Diana si International House!"

“I’m only a couple of months into my Romanian lessons with IH’s Iulia Adreescu but I’m already starting to feel the benefits for my Romanian language. IH’s course materials are well designed and compliment Iulia’s teaching very well.  I really look forward to our lessons. They are not only fun but I also feel that I’m also getting a good understanding of Romania’s culture. I now have no excuse not to get my wife something for Dragobete!”

"Ms. Andreescu is a competent Romanian teacher with strong work ethic. She possesses an open, accessible and she is sensitive to the issues involved in cross - cultural communication as well as relationships at a professional level."

"Mrs. Madalina has proven a high level of professionalism, expertise and experience as a teacher. showing flexibility, patience and has contributed significantly towards the rapid improvement of my Romanian language skills."
