Had an amazing first session with Erick! He is a very comprehensive teacher, taking the time to share a bit about history and culture along the way. I really appreciated that. After only one session, I feel like I am on a trajectory that will lead to mastery!

Erick's lessons are always enjoyable & thoroughly prepared, but I also admire him a lot for creating his own system to teach Luganda, for diving deep into all that confusing linguistics matter to find answers to his students' questions & to present better explanations. Luganda is my first African language to really get acquainted with & there are so many fascinating things to discover but thanks to Erick it never feels impossible 😊

I'm approaching 2 years of Luganda lessons with Erick, and I still enjoy every lesson just as much as when I first began. He is a magnificent and knowledgeable teacher who keeps challenging me with new assignments and topics for discussion. At the same he is extremely helpful and patient when I struggle with the language which I can at times find challenging. His encouragement keeps me going, and while there's still plenty for me to uncover in the language, with his teaching I am miles ahead of where I would be on my own. Thank you so much, Erick!
