Bella was my english professor while at the ISC at University of Sussex. She was extremely engaging, sincere and helpful. Although I am a native speaker, she made sure to give me extra projects to ensure I was getting as much out of the class as possible. Bella is a top notch professor and I recommend her to anyone!

It was a pleasure to have been taught by Bella over the course of the year in the University of Sussex. I especially admire her tenacity, patience, and flair for being able to communicate with both native and non-native speakers alike. With the guidance of Bella, I've grown to be more confident and well-versed in all forms of academic English. I'd definitely recommend Bella to the rest of the students on Superprof!
