Mustafa's response
Mr. Sean is truly one of the best students I have ever taught. He is a quick learner who consistently completes his homework with diligence. Within a remarkably short period of time, he has mastered most essential communication skills. He is now able to communicate and express himself at an intermediate level with clarity and confidence.

Reginald has grown from being my student to becoming like a brother. He was truly exceptional despite his busy schedule, he remained fully committed to learning Swahili. We continue to keep in touch, and whenever I am in Washington, D.C., we usually visit each other. Today, he is able to communicate confidently and happily in Swahili at a very good level.

Mustafa's response
He is smart and fast learner, though Swahili is new language to him but his understanding is excellent. In short period of time he has improved immensely. In my utmost confidence, I am sure he will be the best student after his completion.
