Learning Bulgarian with Elena is exceptionally efficient, she always has a well-prepared customized per-student presentation, it's shared via Google Presentations so we both can work on it at the same time. Results exceed expectations. After 10 lessons 1.5 hours each, I went to Bulgaria: Burgas, Varna, Nesebyr, Sozopol and I managed to speak only Bulgarian in restaurants, shops, bakeries, museums etc, I even bought some furniture. Throughout my two weeks' stay in Bulgaria I wrote many questions in the presentation that we shared on Google Presentations and during the first lesson after coming back from Bulgaria I astonishingly discovered that she prepared not only answers to them but also dialogs, exercises, etc. She's the best language teacher I've ever had. Native Bulgarian speakers were impressed, thank you!
