Oksana N.

10 diction lessons

She explained techniques on how to structure an essay. My teacher, also, offered me several exercises how to build my speech which I enjoyed doing a lot. Ms. Mary challenged me to think critically about improving my diction as well as my usage of grammar. She corrected my pronunciation issues. Ms. Mary is a high level professional and dedicated teacher. I felt comfortable during her lessons. I would recommend her for both, beginners and high level of English learners.
Manny N.

17 diction lessons

So that first lesson was followed by a few more and I have seen and heard the marked improvement in my daughter's speech - pronunciation, diction, thoughtful sentences, and her consciouselimination of unnecessary crutch words (as in, "like", "i mean","you know"). My daughter has described Sara as punctual, friendly, focused and engaged. My daughter still raves how good Sara was! Based on results, I agree.
Erik H.

11 diction lessons

She has been great. My quiz grades after I started seeing her rose to a 90% and my test grades rose to 94%. We worked on things that I did not understand well on class, and we worked on conversational German getting to work on my diction and pronunciation. Really, really helpful. Made German class much more enjoyable.
