What Our Students Say
Student A
In other one-on-one lessons, I sometimes ended up just listening to the teacher talk. Here, the teacher properly points out my mistakes and explains things on the whiteboard, which I really appreciate.
Student S
I've gradually overcome my discomfort with speaking English. I no longer shy away when visitors ask me for directions. Perhaps because I've had more opportunities to use English, my TOEIC score has improved too.
Student F
The teacher introduces topics that make it easy to talk and explains the background behind word meanings when we read English texts. I can really feel myself improving.
