I really enjoyed my trial lesson with Ava! She went through examples and let me practice speaking as well. I liked the structure of the class and her friendly smile. I look forward to having another lesson with her.

I have been taking lessons with Ava for several weeks now, and it’s been a consistently great experience. Lessons are always well-prepared and well-paced, with lots of opportunities to practice what I’m learning. The lesson plans follow a fairly consistent structure which has been really nice. There’s a certain rhythm to them that makes it easy to settle into the flow and focus on learning.

I just finished a great trial lesson. Ava came with a well-structured lesson plan that included a good variety of materials and exercises. She challenged me to push myself, and provided plenty of positive and constructive feedback. I'm looking forward to future classes!

Very good first lesson. We did a lot of speaking a reading, so I got to practice words both on their own and in sentences.
