  • I am very satisfied with my English teacher, her name is Emma Wates. She is very attentive, patient, she always kindly corrects my mistakes, as in my grammar, as in my pronunciation. Unfortunately, I don't have too much time to learn nonetheless I feel my progress in my English. Frequently she sends me videos which are also very useful for me. I am very happy that she is my English teacher, therefore I would like to continue to learn English with her.

  • Vicky, my teacher, helped me a lot with improving my English skills. She is amazing! She is a really expert in teaching. She is alwalys in a good mood, she explains to me in detail with examples from the real life. She brings a balance to our lessons by selecting a plenty of topics from different fields. The 45 minutes go by too fast. I really like her approach. Therefore, I highly recommend her.

  • I am grateful that Miss Sophia was my teacher. She is such a kind and a caring teacher! She improved my English so much in the past 2+ years that I am more confident to speak with native English speaker. I am regretting that I can’t attend her lessons because of my relocation, but I’m sure that I will choose Miss Sophia to be my teacher again in the future!Thanks you Sophia!!

  • I'm taking lessons with Kevin for almost a year. And what can I say? He's the best teacher I've ever had and I feel that the confidence I often didn’t have in speaking English has been improving. The lessons are well prepared and the topics covered are always different, from historical things to more current topics. Kevin helps me a lot to improve my vocabulary and to overcome my difficulties in pronouncing some words. If you are looking for a teacher to help you improve your English, Kevin is the right person!

  • We had enrolled our five years old daughter on a short course with Sophia. It’s worth mentioning that Sophia was utterly professional, polite and engaging in her approach. She has great teaching skills. We’d certainly recommend her to our friends.

  • Jen is an amazing teacher for children. At the end of every lesson, I am always amazed by her ability to motivate and engage my son in conversations. In only few months I’ve seen an incredible progress in his confidence in speaking English. He’s also improving his ability to write texts, structuring stories, and he’s deepening his knowledge of science. I strongly believe that Jen is having a great, positive impact in Piero’s development, and this goes beyond the learning of a foreign language.

  • I like my lessons because Ms Jen is so nice and she doesn’t force me to do lots and lots of homework,the homeworks she tells me to do aren’t boring stuff like workbooks, she tells me to write diaries of my “Unforgettable moments at school.” In lessons, we read different kinds of books together, l really enjoyed having lessons with Ms Jen, l am so lucky to have such a great teacher.
