In my opinion, Miss Phila is one of the best teachers on Italki. She is so professional and qualified I can't even describe. I feel highly comfortable and calm with here during the lessons and the best thing is that she always tries to challenge me which ultimately leads to an increase in English level. Deeply love this teacher and highly recommend her!

I can confidently say, that this was one of the best trial lessons I’ve ever experienced on ITalkie. Phila is very organized, she has multiple tasks to work with and within about 50 minutes we covered Grammar, Speaking and Reading exercises, which is very impressive. Thanks a lot 👏🏻💓

I had another fantastic Zulu lesson with Miss Phila! Her passion for the language is contagious and her teaching style is top-notch. She has an incredible ability to explain even the most complex concepts in a way that is easy to follow and understand. She goes above and beyond to ensure that her learners are getting the most out of the lesson. She is patient, supportive, and encourages you to ask questions so that you can fully comprehend the material. The lesson was not only informative but also enjoyable. Miss Phila's teaching methods are engaging and make learning fun. She incorporates various techniques that keep the learner engaged and motivated to continue with their Zulu learning journey. I look forward to continuing my Zulu learning journey! 100% recommend!
