It is not rare for a student to pose a different interpretation on a topic because each and every individual has their own unique perspective, and that is why it is important for all students to communicate about their own ideas.

The start of her lesson are engaging and we enjoy the topics that she covers during her lessons.

It is a memorable experience to be in the presence of others, who share the learning objective for
