Minela is organized and prepared while still being pleasant and welcoming. I felt like she heard my questions and understood me not just as a language learner with particular goals, but also as a person. I look forward to working with her.

The first lesson with Minela was an assessment and discussion of a learning plan. I was impressed with her tutoring skills. Besides being a well-qualified teacher, she is a caring, positive and patient instructor who any student could learn from.
