I don't have a lot to say. Maya made a big difference in the way I speak and understand Chinese, I could't have asked for a better teacher and person to help me in this complex process. I'm grateful.

Maya is a fantastic teacher. I have only been having lessons with her for one week and already notice my Chinese improving. Her lessons cover interesting and current topics that mainstream lessons do not cover. 100% would recommend!! Thanks Maya 🥰

I have been doing classes with Maya for 2 months. I started classes with maya while in hotel quarantine and she was extremely flexible with my schedule, doing 2 hours of class every day for 3 weeks. Her teaching style was very adaptive to my needs and level. She is proactive in providing interesting and relevant teaching materials including news articles, social media posts, and tv show recommendations. Maya is also extremely motivating and friendly. I can’t recommend her highly enough for anyone at any stage of their language journey. I have enjoyed lessons with maya so much that I have continued to take classes with her on a daily basis.

A fantastic teacher - professional and very attentive to her students' needs. She has a great sense of when to correct mistakes and when to let the conversation flow without interruption. A wonderful person and a great teacher.

Maya is a great teacher! She is very patient and encouraging. She can discuss any topic you like, as well as teach you grammar with a textbook. I enjoyed having Maya as both a teacher and a person!
