Student Feedback

Rami Testimonial

Rami

I took the course as someone who is not quite a 102 beginner. I thought that, at such a low price, I may as well take it as a refresher.

Boy was I wrong. The explanations from Luisa for grammar points I had already seen in Genki were way more coherent and logical. Every week built on and reinforced the previous week, and by the end we had all the grammar needed for competent conversations.

Luisa was highly available, answering questions all times of the day.

Cary Testimonial

Cary

My favorite thing about Luisa is that she doesn't hold back; she makes a point to challenge her students. She is dedicated to her classwork as she prepares the homework, quizzes, group assignments, and extra materials to practice during downtime. If you don't understand something, she is keen on helping you by providing examples and/or spending more time on the lesson.

I've spent money using other tutors and I wouldn't recommend it. Luisa will help you learn the things you NEED to know.
