Marleny Moreno By Tutor Jonathan Lesser
As a tutor, I have been working with Marleny
for 2 years and I continue to be impressed with her dedication and her progress
every time we meet. What is most impressive to me about Marleny is her
continued dedication to improving her reading, writing, and speaking skills. In
addition to our tutoring sessions, she has also attended English language
classes at a local adult school, and is always looking for additional
opportunities to learn and to practice.
Marleny also writes pieces in her spare
time to practice her English on topics of interest to her, and proudly submits
her work to any writing challenge or call for articles that she sees. I am
fortunate for the opportunity to hear about her life and to see how she
expresses herself on things that are meaningful to her.

Thank You Jonathan By Learner Marleny

It’s my turn.
It is time to talk about my amazing
tutor Jonathan Lesser. I’ll always be very grateful to Jonathan for all he has
taught me since March 10, 2018 until now.
I have learned a lot from him. He is a
very good teacher. I admire him because he is active and also has a lot of
energy to teach me after his job. When I started to meet him I did not have the
ability to talk and write in English like today. In our meeting we have
conversations. If I make a mistake he corrects me. In addition, he teaches me
how to pronounce and write words that I write incorrectly. When I read to him,
he asks me questions about what I read. Also I have to write about what I read.
I always see him happy. In his spare time, he plays guitar and plays very well. READ MORE ➤➤
