Amanda is a great instructor. She challenges us, but also meets us where we are at. I resonate well with her teaching style, and I appreciate her flexibility. Learning Spanish has been on my “to-do” list for a long time. Grateful to have the opportunity to continue to learn and grow.
Jodie Masefield
Amanda was amazing to have as a professor and made the experience very fun. Looking forward to working with her again in the future. Gracias Amanda!
Justin Burza
I took English classes with Amanda for a few months after moving to GR. She is a great teacher. My goal was not only to practice grammar but also to work on my writing and speaking skills. After tutoring, I was confident using English in my everyday life.
