Review of City Lit

I was taking beginners' French classes with Daniel Fernandez around ten years ago. Apart from the fact that the class was at the pace of good-for-nothing snail, I was late for Mr Fenandez class only a few minutes twice. This was because of my later than expected finish time at work in Hackney; I had to cycle around 45 minutes through a dense city traffic as to arrive for my class with a minimum of delay. How frustrating it was to find the main door of the building locked and no one responded to the bell once the class started! It happened to me twice and ever since I stopped coming for the classes. My travel time and money was wasted. What a poor approach to evening students who are expected to balance their work with other things! Nevertheless, I do not recommend the tutor.
