During our trial lesson, we will have:
1.	A fun and engaging self-introduction;
2.	A talk about why are you learning the language;
3.	An assessment of your current Filipino knowledge level; and
4.	A discussion of what sort of lessons or learning styles are appropriate for you.

Do you want your document to be edited and check its grammar and spelling? Worry no more as I can help you with a proofreading task.

Before booking a schedule, please consider the following conditions.
• This is purely a proofreading task; document layout and/or format are not covered.
• Kindly send the document via email, Skype, or italki Messenger. The document has to be in an MS Word format with a letter size (8.5’’ x 11’’), 1.0-inch line spacing, a font size of 12 inches, Times New Roman style, and a 1-inch margin on each side.
• A maximum of five (5) pages will be equivalent to one lesson hour. Please note that the preceding pages outside the lesson equivalency will not be part of the proofreading tasks. If your paper is longer than the allotted page count and you would like this to be done, you can schedule an additional lesson for the number of pages in your document.
For example: If your document has eight (8) pages, then you are advised to book a two-hour lesson since 5 pages is equivalent to one hour.
