Lee Luly

I have been having great lessons with Miss Lee Luly. I am a heritage language learner. From the first lesson, she has powerpoint presentations prepared and a structured lesson plan for beginning students. She is energetic and very proactive about making sure that I feel confident in my pronunciation. Whenever she can, she adds in cultural notes such as how to be respectful when you meet monks in Laos or different personal pronouns people use in different regions or settings. She explains everything in English and can even give some more explanation in Japanese (I am currently living in Japan.) リイ先生の授業はとても楽しくて、わかりやすかったです！ラオス語だけでなく、ラオスの文化を教えています。先生はとても明るくて親切です。次回のレッスンも楽しみにしています。いつもありがとうございます。

Teacher Lee is the best language teacher I've had in over a decade of learning several languages, including hundreds of iTalki lessons. 1.) She taught me to read Lao in just 2 weeks. I had no prior experience. 2.) She taught me the most important phrases, words, and concepts for communicating with Lao people naturally. 3.) She taught me Lao culture and customs. Laos is a conservative country, it's important to understand how Lao people think if you want to spend time in Laos. 4.) She is flexible and allowed me to reschedule lessons whenever I needed to. -5.) Class feels more like talking to a friend than a teacher. 6.) She taught me slang and the different particles which is very difficult to understand. 7.) She gave me a Lao name and helped me get adjusted to being in Laos. I highly recommended Lee!

Lee is an awesome teacher who caters and customises her lessons to her students needs. I’ve been having lessons with Lee about 1-2 times a week since March. In that time I’ve been able to make small talk and formulate sentences in Lao. I’m currently learning how to read and write which is harder than I thought but with Lee helping me I hope to understand the basics soon! Thank you so much Lee!! 🤍🤍🤍

Thank you so much Lee for your patience and your kindness, it's a pleasure to learn to speak lao :)

Lee is super sweet, and has a tender approach to studying/learning. She allows slowness and gives context to the material. It works well for me, for it is a combination of theory, practice and cultural background in one. If you need a teacher that takes the time to learn with you, at your own pace, that also likes a good laugh, then Lee will know how to!

Lee was extremely patient with me (as always!) as after a short break in lessons I was a little slow to keep up. Lee always adapts the lesson content to my needs of the day, which I really appreciate.
