Customer Review

"Justin's cultural awareness training and language sessions have provided me with invaluable insight into Rwanda, its people and its culture. His sensitive approach to the debrief following our visit to the Genocide Memorial site was much appreciated. Justin is an excellent language teacher, he devises lessons that are relevant, engaging and fun! I now feel confident to greet people appropriately and start a basic conversation, all of which is helping me to settle into my life here in Rwanda. Murakoze cyane Justin!
