My Mandarin lessons are going great. I booked one-to-one sessions with my instructor and I can see a lot of improvement in my reading, writing, and comprehension skills. My tutor has been very helpful and even accommodates my changing schedules. They provide all the reading materials, videos, questionnaires, and assignments for practice at home. I am happy with my progress. Looking forward to my next lesson this week.
I started learning Serbian at Native Monks last month. My spouse is Serbian, so I wanted to learn his native language. Joining last month, I found that my teacher has tailored the course according to my needs with lots of insights into Serbian culture and history which is fascinating. I have made a lot of progress and my tutor said that I could improve my fluency with a few more classes.
I always wanted to learn Spanish but didn't know where to go. Lucky that I found this place. One of my friends referred me to Native Monks. She recently completed a course in Spanish and had a very pleasant experience. The platform is fun and interactive. You can view the profiles of the tutors and schedule classes. I enrolled in the beginner's class. My tutor helped me a lot. She provided me with all the study materials and assignments. I didn't have to buy any books. I have progressed a lot in the past month.
Best learning platform ever! They offer discounts of up to 40%. The best part is you can choose a tutor. I booked my one-to-one sessions with my Danish tutor. She was a native speaker and it was fun learning the language with her. She gave me customized course material for each lesson. There are live tests where you have to speak sentences in Danish. It was fun and helped me to understand my progress. Native Monks is the best place to learn new languages.
I hired their services for Hindi tutoring. I must say, this was my best decision ever! What I loved the most about their services is that they understand your needs and formulate the lesson plans accordingly. Within a month, I could see a marked improvement in my speaking and writing skills. You guys are simply the best!
Thank you for your feedback. Our tutor has absolutely enjoyed teaching you Hindi.
My French grades were falling and I didn't know what to do. This was one of the reasons why I joined Native Monks. My tutor helped me develop an interest in the language. She was patient, cooperative, and very punctual. She never missed any class and always looked forward to letting me learn new vocabulary. She helped me cope with my fear of failing in the subject. I got an A in my final term which was beyond my expectation. I give full credit to my tutor.
This is the second time I am hiring their services and I am very happy. My German classes are going quite well and have made a lot of progress during the last two weeks. I am thankful to my tutor for providing me guidance and all the study materials that I needed.
I am taking German lessons from Native Monks for the last 3 months. Hustling a part-time job, attending language classes, and at the same time pursuing my university degree can be challenging at times. But thanks to Native Monks and their flexible timings, I never missed my language classes. My tutor always ensures that I understand my lessons and revises the lessons twice so that I never miss out on anything. The classes are so interactive that there is hardly any need for me to practice at home. I love my classes!
Thank you! We have enjoyed teaching your German and look forward to more fun learning sessions.
They have some of the best tutors. My association with Native Monks is not new. I have been taking lessons from them for the last two years. Learning languages is a passion for me and Native Monks is the best place to learn languages. I have taken various language courses. For the past six months, I am doing a Spanish course and the sessions are going quite well.
My French lessons are going quite well. My tutor is a native French speaker. Over the past few months, I have learned a lot about the language as well as their culture. Her teaching style is quite interesting. We will have interactive sessions, where we will learn the lessons as well as discuss a lot about French history, literature, and culture. I must say, this is the best lesson I have ever had.
I can only write a review for my own intents, purposes and experiences, which is a passion for African languages. I found, through Nativemonks, a very competent Xhosa teacher, for which I will be forever grateful. The site however is ok, and also under construction/modification (I have been told) for the better I am sure, but for now it does do what it needs and is intended, which is to serve as a platform for tutors and students, teaching and learning their respective languages. I would recommend this platform, but beware of timeframes when purchasing a package of lessons. The staff are more than helpful and will accommodate their customers if there occurs any hiccups or issues along the way.
I booked a slot for my French lessons. The booking process was very easy and simple. They assigned me a tutor within a few minutes. I really enjoyed conversing with my tutor. She was very cooperative and explained the study modules in detail. Very happy with their services.
I was looking for an English tutor and Native Monks have been very helpful. I have improved a lot in my reading and writing skills. My tutor takes extra care of my pronunciation. I work part-time. So, I asked for flexible hours and they obliged happily. Very helpful service.
I am forever grateful to my Hindi tutor. She was amazing. My visit to India was due this summer. She taught me about the language, and the culture and the sessions were amazing. Learning with her was really amazing!
Their lessons are tailored to suit your requirements. Once you confirm the time slot, the tutors schedule their classes. Learning with Native Monks has been a smooth sail. Hoping to learn more!
Their website promised that they had tutors for a rather difficult to find language so I signed up for the full package. 2 weeks later I hadn't heard anything from them so I reached out and they said they didn't actually have a tutor but they were looking for one. After another week of no response I reached out again. I asked for a refund but they begged for some more time to find a tutor and said that they were talking to some and would have one shortly. So I acquiesced and in the end it took them 6 weeks to find a tutor and they cut the package I had paid for to the very lowest package. And then the tutor didn't show up for the first lesson. So I request a refund. After 6 weeks of waiting and then not even getting my first lesson and not getting the lessons I had actually paid for you know that their site says are 100% guaranteed, I felt this was pretty reasonable. That's when they called me and spent 9 minutes and 34 seconds arguing with me on the phone about whether or not I actually wanted to refund. Finally they understood no I am not continuing with your service. And sent me an email 5 days later saying that they were going to send the refund. And then 5 days after that they sent me another email saying that they were taking out almost $200 because of fees from the payment processor. Native monks is basically a scam stay as far away from them as you can.
Hello,
We understand your experience has not been satisfactory, but we wish you had written a balanced review. Your review omits many critical factors we wish you had transparently disclosed instead of letting your emotions get the better of you with the sole objective of defaming us. First off, you wanted to learn Māori, which is an extremely rare language with just (50,000) 0.000625% of the world population being able to SPEAK this language! And less than 2% of these 50,000 people can teach Māori. And just so you get a little perspective, the Government of New Zealand themselves are struggling with recruiting tutors for Māori as the demand has far exceeded supply. We would highly encourage you to look this data up using a search engine.
Secondly, we are attaching screenshots of some of our conversations as you have accused us of "not keeping you informed".
Our website showed you a message that we did not have a Māori tutor. Languages for which we don't have a tutor display a clear and transparent message informing the customer of the same before they make a payment. This can be verified anytime by going through our website. You also stated you hadn't heard anything from us even after 2 weeks. This screenshot, https://prnt.sc/Oy5RyQvmmBSY, shows that we contacted you soon after your booking came in.
We kept you apprised that the delay in assigning the tutor was because we were continuing to headhunt a tutor in the price you paid because Māori tutors do not teach at the same rates as other tutors. Since you were in a hurry to get started, we shared with you the profiles of the tutors we recruited and their respective prices. Here's the screenshot of our communication - https://prnt.sc/GlWw5iUTjd0t. We had to downgrade your package to our 2nd package (and not the lowest like you claim). You chose one of the tutors and scheduled a class for the next day.
The tutor had less than 18 hours notice and ended up missing the class. This was an honest oversight which should not have happened and she immediately profusely apologised to you through messages. This is one of the screenshots https://prnt.sc/bA_tEFKnQ3OF, there are more. We understand there was a delay in assigning the tutor, but we duly offered to compensate you. You rejected our offer. We have incurred huge financial losses on this transaction as we invested a lot of money to get you 3 tutors for a highly rare language, which a majority of companies don't even offer. If we were a scam, we would not have spent weeks finding tutors and could have saved up both money and countless hours spent hiring tutors just for your booking. Only if you had the patience to try out a lesson, you wouldn't have left with a bad taste in your mouth and would have loved the tutor we so painstakingly arranged for you! I hope you find a service that makes you happy.
Thank you.
The live video sessions are really helpful. It helped me with my pronunciation and vocabulary. The best part is the prices are really affordable and within your budget.
Answer: Hello, that depends on what language you teach. We believe in long-term, mutual collaboration with our tutor partners and setting the expectations right. For this reason the pending applications are approved depending on a whole host of factors like how many students are interested in learning that language with us, what price you have put as your compensation, how many other tutors we registered with us who teach your language, etc. Hope this helps.
