Another awesome lesson with Esther. She fixed my pronunciation of the r sound, now I sound less like a foreigner.

Really enjoyable class. I was a bit unwell so we took a more relaxed approach but I still learned and practice quite a bit. Esther is great at adapting to the situation!

Just completed another great lesson with Esther. She is an amazing teacher that really pushes me to listen and speak mandarin as much as possible during our lesson. Though her English level is very high and she has no issue at all explaining anything in English, I love how she takes me out of my comfort zone so I can truly apply what I am learning. Highly recommended!
