Babalwa is one of the best teachers I've ever had. She asks appropiated questions and let you talk. Her way of correting mistakes was also very appreciated. Thanks a lot and see you in our next lesson!

I worked with Babalwa to get ready for the IELTS exam. In the first lessons, I was not able to make complicated sentences, speak fluently and respond relevantly. In months, Babalwa helped me to improve some of my skills and corrected my mistakes many times. After working together for months, I took the IELTS exam and got 7.0 from the speaking section. I highly recommend Babalwa.
