Reshmi is an excellent teacher who takes care to understand the needs and level of students. She uses an advanced approach that is sensitive to the differences between formal and everyday language and she goes out of her way to clearly explain how Malayalam works. Her approach to this difficult language is designed to overcome the problems faced by non-native speakers of the language, in particular, focusing on the correct pronunciation of new sounds and the need to understand how the language is actually spoken and used.

My lesson with Reshmi was great, she is very positive and intuitive as a teacher, and takes time to talk through concepts. I last learned beginners Malayalam as a child, and the lessons encouraged rote learning. I'm looking forward to learning more about conversational Malayalam which will help me in the long-term!

For context: I am an American born Malayali. I have decent listening ability, poor speaking ability, and only basic reading and writing skills that I learned recently. I have been trying to learn Malayalam on and off for the past few years and found it very difficult caused by a lack of educational resources. I started learning with Reshmi and wow, big difference. She teaches me with a university level textbook written by an American professor so it is a very manageable mix of Malayalam practice and English explanation. There are so many explanations in here of grammatical quirks that get me speaking colloquial Malayalam. For years, I have been making pronunciation errors that Reshmi has cleared up. Now I am having conversations with my parents in Malayalam and working my way up to reading paragraphs. If you have the basics down and are willing to work, I highly recommend you choose Reshmi as your teacher.

Obviously Reshmi is one of the top rated teachers for a reason. Reshmi gently dismantled everything I thought I knew about how to learn a new language and methodically explained how and why we should proceed in a different format. Everything she said made total sense after she spent as much time as I needed to understand what she was telling me. I am looking forward to our next lesson!! Thanks Reshmi!!
