Dacosta was very patient during our class. He is very flexible to his students' needs. I am a heritage speaker of the language, so he was able to teach me without speaking English, therefore I received full immersion. During our class, Dacosta was able to provide explanations that many native speakers are not capable of explaining properly. I feel confident that he will be able to assist me with reaching my language goals.
Looking forward to the next class!

I took a lesson with Dacosta for some information about the Ghanaian education system, which I need for a research project. Dacosta was fully prepared, and answered all the questions I had for him. Thanks so much! I might come back to learn Twi in the future!
