Kalissa

I feel my conversational skills are improving consistently with my lessons with Lisa. She also has a knack for using the correct wording to explain or convey meaning. I feel it helps deepen my understanding and helps me to retain new information.

I have learnt Bahasa Indo with 7 teachers and Guru Lisa is the best teacher I have had. Guru Lisa has great teaching methodology. She speaks to me in Bahasa 80% of the time at a level I can understand. We practice a lot in our lessons and I was able to learn good expressions that my Indonesian friends commended me on. One even asked if I grew up in Indo! After my lessons with her, my latest trip to Indonesia was much different than before. I could converse much better and recognize more words on road signs (by learning imbuhan), especially with all the political campaign posters. I brought my parents around, spoke to the receptionists, drivers, and servers confidently from all the practice. Drivers in JKT are curious and friendly when they hear a foreigner speaking Indo, so I was happy to be able to chat with them in Bahasa. Guru Lisa is also very hardworking. She is always early for lessons, takes notes in class and cleans them up to share later so I can focus on understanding.

Lisa is attentive and always makes sure I understand the material. I feel fortunate that I was able to find such a great teacher!

Kalissa is an excellent teacher. I've been taking lessons from her for about a month now, and she has been great at explaining things and helping me understand proper pronunciation. She is very patient with me and always offers lots of encouragement. I highly recommend her as a tutor!

I feel that Lisa cares enough to explain nuances in the language so that you really learn the material.

Enjoyed another class with Lissa! The way she takes down new words I learnt in an organised google doc is very helpful!
