Proof of own business - N/A - 2014I had my own business for ten years - Authentic Enterprises Limited trading as Stay Fresh Organics. I created it from nothing with a friend. We sold organic herbs and spices online - mainly via Amazon and our web-shop. Our biggest product was Turmeric Powder - which was often the top selling spice on Amazon. Being the director of Stay Fresh Organics taught me a lot about every area of business such as customer service, e-commerce, finance and marketing - so I feel equipped to teach the subject.

Over the past few months I have taken several classes with David, including some lessons to prepare for the IELTS exam. David is an excellent teacher, competent, patient and always willing to adapt the lesson to any request. The lessons with him are never boring. My English has improved a lot thanks to him

It's been more than two years since I started lessons with David, and it has been the best investment in improving my English skills. All the lessons are in a friendly environment. We are on the same wavelength. I highly recommend David as a teacher.

David is a really great listener and very non judgmental person so speaking with him is so easy, also you can speak about deep topics without the fear of getting judged which is so great.
