I always adapt my teaching to your needs and level. I consider myself patient and easy going and try to build confidence in my students.

Just had my second session and feeling really positive and motivated, it's great to practice speaking and be able to check and correct words as I go, and Francisca is so clearly spoken and pleasant to speak to! Looking forward to my next session, I'll be revising my new words!

Was a pleasant conversation where I was able to demonstrate currently ability. She was able to teach completely in Norwegian which I really enjoyed. I was able to ask quick questions in English when necessary, but overall had a really fun time and really boosted my confidence.
