She is the best ESL teacher I have ever had. As I lived in her house for five weeks, she would observe my language lapses then bring content to the classroom to help me overcome them. Donna has a great sense of humor and her classes were always enjoyable. I would wake up looking for the next class. I recommend Donna as a ESL Teacher to anyone looking for improving their English skills effectively.

After I took several one-on-one sessions of English speaking (English is my 2nd language) from her through the Internet (Skype), I realized quickly those mistakes I made in the past 20 to 25 years and now I speak much better, clearer and more professional in "Canadian" way. I had a lot of fun and also learned more from Donna during the classes. The best part of Donna's class is there's no limits in time and location.
