My name is Lois and I have over 30 years of tutoring experience both privately and in Top 10 Prep Schools in Hawaii. Pre-K through 12th grade.

I have had a pleasure attending Mrs. Oda’s lessons! Always extremely understanding and willing to take the extra time to make sure her students understand all the material she presents! Can’t wait to see what more is to come with her as my coach!

She is amazing! I´m learning a lot about how to improve my American English accent. I love her technique. She also gives me very useful pieces of advice about the Acting world. And, on top of that, she is very nice and makes you feel comfortable and fine from the very beginning. Thanks Lois!
