Gohar K

Gohar is an amazing teacher, who has taken the time to help a person completely unfamiliar with a new language and a new alphabet. She is patient and she explains Urdu grammar and sentence forming rules to help me achieve a level of independence when speaking. With her instructions, I have significantly improved in my quest of speaking a new language

Fatima S

I have been having Urdu lessons from Fatima for 3 weeks now and I could not recommend her tutoring service enough. From the first lesson I felt confident and that she really understood what I wanted to achieve by taking these lessons, every session is broken down so I am able to learn, understand and pronounce the words and phrases correctly. I am now going on to my forth lesson and have already learnt so much I feel more than confident speaking and practising outside of our online lessons. Fatima is an amazing tutor and has so much patience and a lovely way of speaking/teaching and I really do look forward to my upcoming lessons and I trust she will be able to get me to where I want to be with my Urdu.
