I’ve worked with:

Aissa is a fantastic teacher! She prepared such a thorough, relevant class that was exactly in the area that I work in, which really helped me practice Portuguese for business use. I was impressed with the level of detail she had applied to the class prep and her kind and professional manner. Highly recommend!
