Dr. Emily is a very kind and attentive teacher. She understands her students' goals and tailors her lessons accordingly. She is punctual, and her classes are highly valuable. In just one session, I learned a lot about pronunciation, which speaks to the quality of her teaching

Dr. Emily es una profesora de inglés excepcional. Es muy comprometida, paciente y disciplinada. Su forma de enseñar es única, natural y extremadamente efectiva.
Dr. Emily se tomó el tiempo para conocer mis necesidades, mis gustos y mi trabajo, y utilizó esa información para crear un plan de estudio 100% personalizado.
Ahora no soy yo quien busca el inglés, sino el inglés que viene hacia mí. El inglés no debe ser una obligación, una carga o un problema, sino una herramienta para alcanzar nuestros objetivos. Gracias a Dr. Emily, ahora puedo usar el inglés para hablar sobre mi propia vida, con mis propias reglas, ritmo y en los momentos correctos; esa es la gran diferencia entre el “inglés académico” que aprendí con mis 20 profesores anteriores y el “inglés real” que estoy aprendiendo con ella.
El método de Dr. Emily es el mejor que he conocido.
Gracias, Dr. Emily, por toda la ayuda que me estas dando! Me encanta tu forma de enseñar y estoy muy agradecido.
