Official Transcript of Records - Ave Maria College - 2017The attached credential is my official transcript of records in college that shows some of the courses taken. Some of them are the Filipino 101 (FIL 101), Filipino 102 (FIL 102), and Filipino 103 (FIL 103) courses that molded me to learn more about our national language here in the Philippines which is Filipino/Tagalog. Cebuano is also considered as my native language that is widely spoken all throughout the country, but no organization that certifies someone's level of Cebuano fluency.

Ryan was on-time, friendly, and made a big effort to understand where I was in my Tagalog studies. He seems knowledgeable and very prepared. I plan to take more lessons with Ryan.

I've completed six lessons with Ryan so far, and he's been an incredible teacher! He's patient, attentive, and always takes the time to ensure I fully understand each conceptāeven when it takes me a while to get there.
What I really appreciate is how well he tailors each lesson to my learning style. He quickly picks up on the areas where Iām doing well and where Iām struggling, then adjusts the lesson accordingly to better support my progress.
I highly recommend Ryan to anyone eager to learn Tagalog!

Galing si Ryan! He is great, and really tailors the class to your life, being able to speak about who you are as a person. Really helped me explain myself in another language. Also, teaching the foundation of words in a concrete structure that allows you to not only understand what you are saying in Tagalog, but to be able to say things in your own personality. Very patient and energetic! I have taken about 15 classes with him and think it is worth it.
