I AM A WOLOF TEACHER. LEARN AND SPEAK WOLOF EASILY WITH ME.
Dembane
Very clear as to what his teaching methods and goals are, how he'll help you get there - then jumps right in and gets you started with no fuss. I found myself speaking sentences in Wolof by the end of the lesson, and really appreciate the additional written material he supplied as well. As someone who has taught and learned various other languages I can tell that Dembane has a really sound methodology. I'll add to this review in a few months time, but so far I am impressed. Also glad that he is pointing out regional differences between Senegal and Gambia usage to me, as it's relevant to my learning needs. He does personalise the content for the individual student, which is good to see.

Spanish: Grammar and lots of speaking to communicate
Paula
I have to say that I am enormously grateful to Paula, not just as my English teacher but also as my Wife's Spanish Teacher. Paula has helped us to connect even more in our relationship. In term of 2 months or less, Paula helped my wife speak fluent Spanish and much more confident with my Family. Paula Thank you so much for How you changed our lives. Big hugs From Canada 🇨🇦

Eva
Just had my first lesson and it has been an eye-opener. I had so many questions and still she helped me with each of them. I inmediately booked a bunch of lessons with her and will recommend her to whoever is looking to learn, improve or refine their painting skills.
