Jayashree Jagannatha

It was a delightful introduction. I am so excited to work with Jayashree.

Lovely first lesson with Jayashree. I had a bit of basics in Kannada so we were able to quickly move through present tense grammar and pronouns. She organized the material in an easy to follow and very structured way that made learning easy.

I have been wanting to learn Kannada to communicate with my partner, our friends, and his family. Jayashree was very clear on process, expectations, and timeline. She also listened to why I wanted to learn Kannada and how we can tailor my lessons to those goals. I'm very happy with our trial lesson and am looking forward to our next one.

Jayashree is a fantastic Kannada teacher! Even though I've only had two classes so far, I've already learned so much. She is very professional, patient, and makes me feel comfortable as I’m just beginning my journey with the language. I’m looking forward to more classes and improving my Kannada skills with her guidance!

Great class with Jayashree, I had not practiced for some time and felt I had forgotten everything and I am going to Karnataka in 2 days, she has really been patient with me and helped me giving me nice phrases I can use. Will need to bring my notes with me on the trip! Thanks again Jaya!

Resuming lessons with ಜಯಶ್ರೀ-ಅವರೇ after about 2 months break (I'm in grad school and very busy 😮‍💨). We picked up right where we left off, and I am glad to be doing Kannada again!! ಜಯಶ್ರೀ-ಅವರೇ is very patient and encouraging, as usual. We are now on pg. 55 of ಘಾಚರ್ ಘೋಚರ್, which is quite a stimulating novel. We explored the author's use of dialect and discussed the themes of the book, particularly the existential ennui associated with inheriting wealth.
