Natali 🦊

Natali is one of the most compassionate people that I have ever met. It is a blessing to have her as a teacher! Сердечно дякую! Я дуже вдячна за ви :)

This review commemorates my tenth lesson with Natali; and, I am thoroughly enjoying the learnings thus far. Indeed, the Ukrainian language is very difficult for an native English speaker with only one language; however, its beauty is not lost to me. Recently, we changed the approach to focus on reading more extensive texts for beginners without initial assistance. Natali not only corrects my mispronunciations (of which, there is always positive encouragement), but also elaborates on the context of words. For instance, some words can have similarity; however, they possess disjoint meanings. This is always fascinating. The change in approach vindicates both of her adaptability and overall intelligence, especially with what works best for me.

Undoubtedly, some segments of the lesson was particularly challenging as it focussed on more complex words and phrases. Of course, this is necessary for one to improve their proficiency in any task, especially learning a new language. Special credit must be given to Natali for being both compassionate and understanding as a teacher. Similarly, her methods of use of gamification as a method is genius; and, I look forward to progressing with this method. Lastly, Natali, thank you for going beyond the call of duty for me. It is greatly appreciated :)
