Seems to be easy to learn. Instructor very good.

By JoBeth Umali on 8/24/2020

This was a good pace. I was able to write down the phrases in order to remember them.

By Carina on 8/11/2020

I like it. you can really understand it they way he teaches it.

By Ken on 6/17/2020

I am a sort of plodder rather slow to absorb knowledge, so think I have not caught up with the lessons. However I have the advantage of a filopina wife. So hope to continue maybe some other way.

By Michael Alcantara on 6/16/2020

Excellent so far BC of the pace and pronunciations.

Ur so thicc

By Ted Johnson on 3/3/2020

So far so good. Like the speed and style of the program.

By Tyler Carr-Braint on 2/24/2020

Good for learning some basic conversations. There are many moments in the videos I wish I knew more about why the phrases are structured like they are.
The repetition is good but sometimes a bit too slow when only 3-4 words are covered per lecture. Otherwise fairly engaging and easy to listen to.

By Glenn Yago on 2/24/2020

Instructor Jeric's course is very well done in helping me to learn and retain knowledge this may be basic, but very useful and enjoyable. Maraming salamat po.
