Reviews

I always have very good lessons with Isha. I self studied for a while before seeking tutoring but I had no idea if what I was doing was right and I also never practiced speaking. Working with her has finally got me making sentences and speaking and she?s always willing to check my work. She?s very patient, I forgot what chuka means for at least 4 lessons in a row before I got the hang of it and she never judged me for it

Isha is very patient with me considering the topic of Hindi poetry and songs, which is quite difficult. She explains the language very well and adds more thorough examples and songs which adds more cultural nuances to the text. Helped me translate lines correctly and corrected some mistakes I would have not seen. Very helpful and all ways suggests other topics to consider. I have learned a lot about Indian culture from her. Also speaks Hindi sometimes to get me used to hearing normal Hindi speech which I really need. Thank you

I had been studying Hindi on my own for months without much success. After my first lesson, Isha helped boost my confidence. She is very patient and keeps the lessons at the perfect level of challenge. After 3 lessons, I have grasped more than I have in 6 months. Grateful for her help!

The first tutoring session started with some questions being asked to determine the student's level of proficiency. Isha provides new vocabulary (short and easily remembered) and teaches students how to structure sentences. I was able to speak a few simple sentences from the very beginning. The short homework assignments reinforce what was covered during the session. I enjoy the progress I'm making with Isha as my tutor.

Isha is an amazing tutor. She is patient, friendly and has really helped me with understanding grammar and increasing my vocabulary. I really enjoy our sessions together and feel that I am learning a lot through her method of teaching. She challenges me in my learning while making learning Hindi fun! I started our sessions with out knowing hardly any Hindi. But now she has helped me in my ability to create full sentences and has greatly increased my vocabulary. I would highly recommend Isha as tutor.
- Nichole S. from Fort Collins, CO
I'm starting to learn Hindi, and Isha explained useful grammar constructs and gave sensible recommendations to practice so that I can learn to speak the language. I had experience learning Hindi from a book and am learning now how to speak it, listen, and form my own sentences. Isha was supportive about using the devanagari script -- the transliterations are ambiguous and a bit confusing for me. Isha was patient, supportive, and receptive for what I was looking for throughout our lesson.

Isha has helped me gain better understanding of oblique pronouns today. I finally feel like I am getting a basic grasp of the language. I enjoy reviewing the whiteboards and making application of what I learn after the sessions.
- Brenda J. from Aiken, SC
Isha is very knowledgeable in grammar and very patient in teaching me. We worked on grammar and how to construct sentences properly. When to use oblique case, etc.
- Sij S. from Waltham, MA
Isha is such a wonderful tutor. We have tried several times to have lessons for our kids so that they can get to the point of being conversationally fluent for Hindi. Isha understands what we are trying to accomplish and has been wonderful! We highly recommend her!
- Andrea D. from Finksburg, MD
We?re traveling to India soon. Isha introduced us to Hindi words and manners including their cultural significance. She was very patient and courteous with our mistakes. After the lesson my wife said, ?she was charming!?
- Dave W. from Palo Alto, CA
Isha has been wonderful to work with. She has been teaching me the basics of Hindi in a grammatically correct way that allows me to learn how to have conversations with Hindi speakers. Isha breaks the information of grammatical structure down in such a way that it is understandable and relatively easy to learn. I highly recommend this tutor.
- Charlotte B. from Annapolis, MD
Then she can teach anybody! Isha is personable, patient and knowledgeable. I have learned more from her in 8 lessons than I had with a year with Rosetta Stone. I am learning to communicate using the correct tense instead of learning a bunch of random words. Thank you so much for all your help.
- Rachel M. from Northbrook, IL
Isha is a great Hindi tutor - very patient, detailed and knowledgeable. Our son has been taking lessons with Isha for the last few months and has enjoyed the lessons and shown consistent and good progress. We are looking forward to continuing the Hindi lessons with Isha over a prolonged period of time so that our son can become proficient in Hindi under Isha?s valuable guidance. Highly recommend Isha for those seeking to learn Hindi!
- Tanmay R. from Cedar Falls, IA
Isha is helping my fiance to learn basic colloquial Hindi, and for me to improve my speaking, reading and writing. She is so easy to work with, encouraging, and creative. I would highly recommend her!
- ADITI S. from Brooklyn, NY
Isha helped me with both writing and talking in Hindi. She assisted me in concepts I needed for class, but also pushed me farther and helped me learned new vocabulary.
- Olivia P. from Morristown, NJ
Isha has taught me the fundamentals of Hindi and I learned the basics of the language flawlessly. She has great patience and knows what she?s doing. She is willing to go the extra mile with you to understand better.
- Melvin T. from Plano, TX
Isha is very patient and willing to take her time to make sure you understand the lesson. During our first lesson we went over basics which made me feel more confident in learning a new language.
- Shelby H. from College Station, TX
This was 2nd visit and we're already on way to grammar, sentence structure...wow! Very good at explaining, insightful instruction, she draws on her experience as a teacher to customize lessons to students weaknesses.
