WHAT STUDENTS SAY
“Nairi helped me with speaking English and good pronunciation. She let me know that language has a rhythm and certain stressed syllables in both words and sentences so I can understand more and improve my speaking. The most helpful from Nairi is she always says don’t be afraid to make mistakes and be kind to yourself in the process of learning.”

“As an international student, I was lacking self-confidence when speaking English. Nairi taught me to not be afraid to use specific techniques in class. Classes were never boring because she was and still is all the more well trained with appropriate tools. Nairi is wonderful, kind, dedicated, and a very passionate teacher. I believe that her warm and strong work ethic makes her well-suited for teaching international students.”

“When I just came to the United States, my English skill was not that well to be able to understand people who talk to me fast. Nairi really knew how to guide her students to be academic success and to be well prepared before studying as a university student. I became to be more optimistic and confident because I could communicate with people using what I learned, and Nairi was a teacher who pushed me and encouraged me to be more than I can be."

“As a first-generation student, I did not have enough support to feel motivated in continuing into higher education. Nairi was there to provide the guidance and motivation I needed to move forward. She is the best professor I have had this year. A completely understanding and flexible approach to teaching. She is easy to talk to you if you need assistance. I would definitely suggest her to all..”

"Nairi was my reading, writing and grammar instructor when I studied at USC. She used interesting methods to teach us how to do academic writing and use proper grammar correctly. Not only that, Nairi also has her own style about in-class quiz and exams. It was very unique and special compare to other instructors. Even though the in-class quiz and exams seem fascinating and riveting, it actually can let us learn a lot from it during the quiz time. I am very fortunate to have an instructor like Nairi, and because of her teaching and recommendation; I get myself into USC Sol Price School’s Master program. Therefore, I will definitely recommend instructor Nairi."
