Debalkew Kiros is an excellent teacher. He is very patient and does a very good job of teaching how to speak Amharic. He also teaches how to read Amharic in a fun easy way. I have had 3 lessons with Debalkew and they have all been great, and they have helped me have conversations with my family.

Now that I am several lessons in, I remain impressed by Ato Debalkew's diligent and thoughtful approach to the Amharic materials that I needed assistance translating. These lessons will be invaluable to my graduate research. Very glad to be working with him!

I really enjoyed my Amharic lessons with Mr. Debalkew. He is a very friendly and patient teacher who made the lessons both enjoyable and easy to follow. He always explained things clearly and made sure I understood each concept before moving on. His positive attitude and encouragement made learning Amharic a great experience. I would highly recommend his classes to anyone interested in learning the language.

Today was my first Amharic lesson with Debalkew. He had an excellent presentation and was well-planned. I am excited for more lessons. I like the structure and plan for my progress over the coming months. :)
He gives examples throughout and explains very well.

I recently had another amazing session with my teacher, and I couldn't be more pleased! He was incredibly attentive and quickly identified the areas where I was struggling with certain words. What impressed me the most was his willingness to invest more time to ensure I fully understood the material. This personalized approach not only clarified my confusion but also boosted my confidence and ability to excel. I highly recommend this learning experience to anyone looking to improve their skills!

Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of my teacher is his contagious passion for the Amharic language. His enthusiasm is evident in every lesson, making even the most challenging topics enjoyable. This passion not only makes learning fun but also fosters a genuine interest in the language and culture. I find myself looking forward to each class, eager to absorb more and engage in discussions.
