-Lori-
I had the wonderful opportunity of learning Albanian from Dr. Zana Sukaj for over two years from 2019-2021. During this time, I progressed from a complete beginner and learned how to navigate basic conversation in this complex language. Dr. Zana is a highly competent linguist with a keen understanding of language instruction. I always felt challenged during our sessions yet supported by her warm teaching style. She frequently tailored the lessons to a regional dialect I was aiming to master and added cultural lessons to help me better understand the full picture. I fully recommend Dr. Zana for those seeking a rigorous language instructor.

-Brisilda-
“I am very pleased with the results and support and for that I am grateful.”
-Mati-
“I studied under Professor Sukaj through a language learning center in Washington, DC. She is an excellent language instructor. Her patient, methodical style of instruction is highly effective for language learning. Following my lessons with her, I felt much more confident in my ability to speak Albanian and understand the complexities of the language. I offer her my highest recommendation!”
-Sara-
I learned Albanian for almost a year, in person and via zoom. The instructor of the center was amazing, highly qualified.
-Al Kulynych-
I was given the opportunity to provide training to the Ministry of Defense in Kosovo. Given that I knew about the Balkans and it's history I was thrilled to provide insight on processes and recommendations to my constituents there. As Albanian is the predominant language and culture in Kosovo, I was afforded the opportunity to meet Dr. Sukaj prior to my departure. Her task was to train me in conversational Albanian, the culture, the do and don't etc. She provided me with one on one instruction, not only in the classroom, but also walking the streets, outdoor markets, using the METRO and practicing Albanian around Washington, DC. This approach helped greatly in my mission in communicating, connecting within their culture, and at the completion of my mission formally being honored by their Prime Minister and the MoD. I am very grateful to Dr. Sukaj for her focus and dedication for giving me this opportunity. Faleminderit Shume.. Thank-you Very Much!
