I was skeptical at first and didn't know how this would go, then once my kids started the class with Miriam their response was amazing. she's articulate, knows how to relate with the kids, both playful and firm. she's really great at what she does

Miriam is a patient and encouraging teacher, who is very good at meeting you at your level and tailoring lessons to your needs. I started lessons to practice my speaking skills. She had materials ready to guide our speaking exercises, and she was so helpful and encouraging, and can really help building your speaking confidence. I absolutely recommend her lessons to everyone.

Miriam is the best. She has a fun, safe and enjoyable teaching style and always engages with my questions and helps me to grasp not only the language structure but also the context. I can't recommend her enough.

I really enjoyed todays lesson with helping me understand past, present, future and past perfect tense and negative tenses. I have struggled with learning it for awhile but Mwalimu Miriam really helped me work through it and explained it in a simple and understandable way and practiced with me.
