    “I took a private course with Asha & wow! I learned so much from her dining etiquette course. She’s so captivating & intelligent that I could have listened to her for hours. I was nervous because I thought I’d be bored, but I was far from that. This was one of the most exciting and informational classes I’ve ever taken. Thank you, Asha!“
