Teacher Daya knows well how to get the attention of her students! Isla's lesson went by fast and my daughter was really engaged because teacher Daya prepared a very interactive lesson with games of her favorite cartoon. My daughter had fun whie learning!

My daughter has been taking lessons with Ms. Daya for about 4 months now. She looks forward to them every week. She’s always engaging and supportive. My daughter is a 2E kid (twice exceptional... she has an incredibly high IQ but also has a learning disability). Ms Daya always provides content to keep her interested and and advancing while at the same time stays cognizant and understanding of the obstacles she faces. She moves along and just the right pace to keep my daughter challenged but not overwhelmed. I also appreciate the open communication and progress updates she gives me as the parent. I can not believe how much my child has learned already and look forward to working together for a long time to come. Thank you so much!

Daya has been consistently patient and has always tailored each lesson to my individual style of learning.
She has been able to keep me engaged with a variety of topics, which is testament to her ability as a teacher since I am prone to becoming easily distracted!
I would highly recommend Daya as a language teacher - she is incredibly enthusiastic in all aspects of her teaching.
Grazie, Daya :)
