I liked MIXOLOGY Academy because the place is really cool and the location is great. My teacher was very frendly and patient. The school is great!.
Je recommande le cours de MIXOLOGY Academy à tous ceux qui veulent exercer les métiers de façon professionnelle. Les enseignants de la MIXOLOGY Academy sont très bien formès et transmettent leur savoir de forme simple et professionnelle puorqu'il sont accessible à tous.
I'm really satisfied with the program and the quality of the process and teaching style: friendly, professional, dynamic. Everyone was patient with me and the fact I don't speak Italian wasn't a problem at all.
During the research for a "Barista Course", I came across MIXOLOGY Academy and found it to be the most comprehensive course offered, if not the only one available. Doing the course was relaxing and made it possible to let the knowledge learned in the morning, sink in the afternoon while enjoying Rome.
I came to Italy to learn everything about coffee. I had very good theachers... and they told me everything I need to know about coffee!
I traveled 20 hours from Hawaii just to take this course... the reason why I came here is to come to MIXOLOGY, to the source, to learn how to learn coffee & latte art... and also since I am here to learn all the different cocktails and marketing techniques.
Todo Excelente, trato personal de primera calidad, profesores profesionales e istalaciones optimas! Recomiendo 100%
Thank You very much! Very motivated and enthusiastic people! Lot of learning
The MIXOLOGY Academy is the best school. I have come across in Italy to join. The secretaries, trainer and staff are so kind and very respectful. The school has lots of accomodities to offer in therms of professional Bartender and Coffee Barista. My lessons was so good because the teacher was so friendly and when I could not understand anything I was free to ask and I was shown whatever I made mistake.
Fue una magnifica experencia ya que he aprendido tanto como es esta arte de ser barman; y el tiempo que he estado haciendo el curso me he sentido muy a gusto. El grupo de profesores cuentan un gran carisma y gran conocimiento de la materia y se transmiten muy bien a los alumnos. Fue una experiencia indimenticable y nunca me voy a olvidar.
