My best experience learning languages in London!
Happy Languages has a dedicated team and well-designed programme.... The class sizes are small so you never feel overwhelmed. If you miss a class, the website contains all the notes so you can easily catch up.
I spoke no Italian before and by attending the beginner classes, I am now able to understand and hold conversations. The thing I've enjoyed most is the friendly class atmosphere. Our teacher is excellent and everyone in the class is kind and supportive. I hope to continue learning!read more

I've been studying Italian at Happy Languages for over 3 years and I love it. The classes are small, so you get a lot... of attention, the teachers are great and it starts at 7pm meaning I can get there from work on time. It's also the best value for money compared to the other courses especially the university/college courses. Definitely recommend it.read more

I took the Spanish Beginner 3 course with Happy Languages and had a great experience. Vanessa is an excellent teacher... who puts a lot of energy and enthusiasm into making the lessons informative and enjoyable.
We had a lovely small group, and every week we did different interactive exercises and were set homework tasks. I feel like I learned a lot on the course and made new friends at the same time.
If I hadn't moved away from London I would 100% have gone onto the next course with Happy Languages. I thank Vanessa for teaching me so much and inspiring me to continue my learning.read more

Good quality teaching. The class is in a quiet office meeting room, with a desk you can actually write on - much... better than the standard language school setup. I returned to Italian classes after a long break. They were very helpful and flexible while I worked out what level of class to take.read more

I have just finished the 10 week beginners 1 Spanish course. Our teacher, Vanessa, was really excellent and full of... energy. I knew absolutely zero Spanish before I started, but now feel like I have a good basic knowledge and am looking forward to doing beginners 2.
The We Work offices are a great place to learn - modern and free coffee!
The class sizes are perfect, too. There were usually about 6 people each week, which is enough that you can practice with each other but not so many that you get ignored.read more

I've just finished the 10 week beginner Spanish course and have LOVED it. We covered so much and it gave me a firm... grasp of the basics needed for a solid foundation in a language I've not had the chance to learn before.
Special thanks needs to be given to our fantastic teacher, Vanessa, who made all of the lessons fun and interesting (even grammar!). Thank you for your continued patience and enthusiasm!
I will definitely be looking to continue learning Spanish with Happy Languages in the future, and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their language skills.read more

Amazing Experience! Beginners 2 Level
I enjoyed a lot the Italian classes at Happy languages. The teacher was good and... a really good person. We were a small group so it felt most of the time as a private lesson.
I got the chance to practice in Italy the skills I gained in the months class and went very well :). Definitely going for next course.

The best language school in London. The class sizes are small, so you have a good opportunity to speak and be involved... in the class, and the teachers are very supportive. I've completed three terms of Italian and I've really noticed the difference in my language skills and confidence when I'm speaking :) the location is also super convenient!read more
