Light is a energetic and patient teacher. She takes the time to help you with pronunciation and speech while also keeping the lesson fun and interactive. I highly recommend light for anyone who is wanting to learn tagalog but needs to cover basic words/Phrases and eventually progress into light/heavy sentences.

Light is a very accommodating and understanding teacher. She goes out of her way to put herself in your shoes in terms of understanding a phrase or sentence when you are confused and she has an amazing sense of humor.
