Each lesson with Rachel is a pleasure. She is always prepared and takes her job seriously, but every lesson is also relaxed and personal. If I'm focused, we can progress quickly; if I'm struggling, Rachel takes more time to go over things in a variety of ways until I get it. Learning a new language will always be a challenge, but with Rachel helping me, I feel a lot more confident that someday I’ll finally get there.

Rachel is a very supportive teacher and is always very well prepared. She sends me an article to read before the class and then we go through it together. We also have free flowing discussion in which she helps me with any unknown vocabulary. I really enjoy my lessons with Rachel. Rachel is very punctual and has a great internet connection, so that our lessons can proceed smoothly.

She's beyond sweet during her lesson and made me really enjoy the lesson. She has also helped with the fact that i have a learning disability, will 100% book her repeatedly for lessons

Rachel was very good and very well prepared. I am a complete beginner - she made sure that my tones were correct, taught me several useful phrases, and explained the words behind the phrases.

I'm so excited to learn Mandarin. One of my goal languages. Class was so motivating and fun. You can fully see that Rachel enjoys teaching her students. The explanation on all tones and word meaning to phrases are clearly explained. Highly supportive teacher here on italki. Thank you so much for helping with the start of one my goal languages!!

I just had a fantastic 30-minute lesson with Rachel and absolutely loved it! We spoke entirely in Chinese the whole time, covering introductions, family, food, and drinks. It was an amazing, immersive experience. I can't wait for our next lesson—thank you, Rachel!
