Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. This is the full hourly price for meeting in person and having a session.

No. The diagnostic session just gives me a chance to test where you are academically and personally. There’s no official homework, so there’s no homework fee, but I may need you additional documents or information to bring to our next session (for which there is no additional fee).

You don’t need to worry about a thing. Kenisha is responsible for reserving the space.

You may be able to change locations, but you will still be responsible for fees associated with the original location. I have to consider time traveling to the location, reserving and setting up the location (if necessary), and time traveling back home to work with online customers. (Hey, I need to be near my whiteboard and client files.)

Express Yourself In English

You may benefit from 1-to-1 learning from a private English teacher for adults and teens who will determine what you need to know, how you learn best, and what to do to help you:

How do I get started? Please, explain the process?

  1. Complete the registration application. The registration fee costs $49 and must be received and cleared before your application is processed. After completion of your tenth (10th) session, the fee will be credited to your account.
  2. Within two (2) business days, you will receive a call or email from me. We will arrange your diagnostic session appointment.
    Decide if meeting online or in-person is better for you.
  3. If you want to work together in person, we will meet at one (1) of three (3) Downtown Oakland locations or an Alameda location.
  4. After we meet for our diagnostic session, I will inventory your test and interview responses then use that information to begin creating your personalized regimen.
  5. Depending on your specific situation, you may be able to begin learning within one (1) day, but it may take up to seven (7) days to attend your first learning session.

Let’s get busy getting you over your academic, professional, or personal hurdles.
