Thanks Lisa for your professionalism, consideration, and honesty! You make yourself look presentable for the lesson though it's just an online one, which means to me that you're a conscientious coach. You appear to be a very caring teacher who listens to her student's needs or goals. And lastly, thank you so much for being very honest with my English issues. Thank you, Lisa!! :)

Lisa was very nice and helpful. At the first lesson, we did a lot of writing, grammar, conversational training, business vocabulary. I've got a bunch of new words and rules to memorize. That is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
