Sophia's lessons always leave me in a good mood. She is well informed on current events and introduces interesting topics. She also elicits topics by asking questions that generate conversations to apply vocabulary in different areas of life. She is responsive and supportive, and I can feel my conversation skills growing with each lesson.

Thank you Sophia for another enjoyable lesson reading Apollonius of Rhodes’ Argonautica - both style and story being very interesting. A good introduction to Euripides’ Medea?
