Lesson was so much fun!! Helena crafted the lesson specifically for me and my current situation. I could tell she prepared the materials very well! I also appreciated her teaching me slang, or common/formal ways of speaking, and breaking down each sentence or word and what they mean when you string them together. We also continuously worked on pronunciation and sounding more fluid, which I want to get better at. I'm looking forward to the next lesson! It's never a boring time :)

Helena has been an amazing teacher. I was looking for 5-6 days of Cantonese lessons specifically to prepare to talk to students and parents at school. Helena introduced fundamentals of Cantonese speech and grammar along with relevant vocabulary specific to what I needed. She spoke at a good pace and we practised conversation skills using the previous lesson's material. Each lesson was a balance between learning a few new concepts, repeated reading practice, reading dialogue and quizzes. Helena was able to adapt to my learning style and speed with each lesson. I felt I have learned months of Cantonese in only a week, with all the material chosen being relevant and immediately useful.
