Student Accolades::
"Sue Kunimune is an exceptional teacher. Sue taught her material well, made it interesting and fun and she motivated us to learn by her enjoyment of Spanish and her interest in us. In this class she had the challenge of teaching students with a wide range of experience with the language but she was able to keep us all interested and challenged. She is poised, organized, knowledgeable and always charming. I lectured in Economics at the University of Hawaii for several years, so I have first hand knowledge of the problems of teaching and I appreciate an exceptional teacher when I fine one. Susan is a wonderful teacher."
Dr. Robert H. Smith
Economist/University of Hawaii
"After a few short weeks of sessions, we are now able to greet our customers, ask what services they need, count out their money, inquire about opening a new account and ask for proper identification all in Spanish. I would personally recommend this class for any business having contact with Spanish speaking clientele. Thanks Sue for making learning Spanish so enjoyable. Muchas gracias!"

"Thanks Sue for your patience in helping each student. As adults, you can feel intimidated and nervous learning something new. I was very relaxed and I am sure this is due to your presentation. Your class was definitely what I expected but so much more."
