Then I watched one of our classes from last week, and I know I have much to improve. But I'm very glad of my results "until now." Thanks for your patience in helping me. Even my communication has gotten better, because when we started, I was very shy and always felt embarrassed to speak Jim, thank you for everything... I felt so tired when I started the lesson, but now I feel good... You guide me with your perspective on life in our lessons. I hope I am expressing myself better, and we can talk about many more topics in the future ๐๐ป Have a good week. See you next week Hi Jim! I really enjoyed the first lesson, even if it was only for a few minutes. I had a lot of fun and it helped me overcome some of my shyness and feel confident during the lesson. I was happy to spend my first class with you. This account is for my sister and I took her to try the class. When I saw you and saw the beautiful class, I signed up for a special account for myself and I will continue with you.
