"Having fun is most important when studying a language.  If I don't have fun speaking a language - I won't have fun learning it. And I am sure that my students feel the same way.

When you understand what the other person is saying and you can have an exchange - that is a magic moment.

In my class, I try my best to create an atmosphere where you can relax and have fun while steadily improving."
