Gina Gargoles

Gina is a very caring and patient teacher, and she pays attention to what I want to learn. She's always happy to make great new original learning materials, and tailor her lesson style and topics from my requests. Her personality is warm and gentle and she's open to chatting about local lifestyle too. She helps me with pronunciation and language structure using practical sample sentences, which also impart some Philippines customs in our lesson.

I really appreciate how Gina is active about expanding my Tagalog vocabulary. It feels great to feel like I'm consistently 'leveling up' rather getting stuck with the same beginner materials aka 'tutorial hell'. Again, my Tagalog knowledge is steadily refining and I'm super thankful for that!

I've had a couple of classes with Gina, and I've to say, its been such a pleasure to learn Tagalog with her . Gina is friendly , approachable and well organized. She adapts the classes' to my learning needs and Im enjoying them. The classes' are very interactive which include, phrases, stories and general tit bits , so the learning sessions are fun and not monotonous. Its commendable that she scheduled one of the classes late night, so that she could adjust to my time zone .I was really impressed to see the commitment level. If anyone wants to learn Tagalog, Gina should be your first choice . I can assure you that you wont find anyone more committed than her. Im looking forward to learn more from her.

Great lesson with Gina! We finished learning about object pronouns. For each example sentence, Gina checks to see if I understand and then explains it. Gina gave me a quiz at the end of class to see how well I understand subject pronouns and object pronouns. She is always pushing forward in learning!

Gina is really warm & friendly, I feel we can discuss about so many things. She is also very apologetic about the issues during teaching. Her teaching is easy to follow and understand.

Gina is so sweet and I'm excited to continue classes with her! I enjoy learning in her relaxed yet informative environment. She encourages me to speak in class, which I really appreciate, and she is considerate about asking if I understand what she says or explains. She gives great examples and references also. See you next class! :)
