I attended your class for the first time last night, and I am so pleased with the class and with you, now I feel that my goal of becoming semi-fluent someday (before I die, haha) can truly be reached. I loved your approach, that this should be approached without fear, or fear of failure or frustration -- a problem for so many adults who feel intimidated and self-conscious. Your website is great by the way -- I definitely am interested in the immersion program to Mexico. Thanks so much, Roxane Wellman, Fairfield, CA
