Had my first actual lesson after my trial lesson, another excellent one! She exactly knows what you need and she is very careful with every step, making sure you are learning what you need. Thank you so much!

It was a wonderful first lesson! I took my first lesson with Hüma and there will be more lessons with her for sure. She is well-organized, easy-going, fun, and very professional. You definitely feel her experience!
