Kate master perfectly her lessons. She lets me speak by open questions, she corrects my numerous mistakes immediately and gives me explanations about different meanings of English vocabularies. Besides, she's eager to finding interesting topics.

It was another great lesson! I have been working with Kate for more than a year now, and I feel very confident to say that my English has improved significantly with her classes.
She always finds unique and interesting topics to use in her classes. Materials range from TED talks to cult youtube videos, from contemporary politics to history and religions and so on.
What I particularly found positive is that she is very flexible in accommodating your interests, goals and expectations. It makes her lessons very personalized to each student. You never feel like you're just following the same curriculum with another student.
Moreover, we spent a number of lessons working on accent reduction. She showed me how to identify stress points on words and syllables. We worked on intonation and diphthongs. All were very helpful, and even my coworkers were able to tell the difference in my speaking skills.
We also practiced professional English for my job applications. She prepared me for my interview questions and gave brilliant ideas for my responses. We together wrote an essay summarizing my past and future goals, during which I practiced my writing skills. She helped me to organize my CV, make it look more professional and improve its English quality. And as a result, I am actually accepted to the position!
In short, I definitely recommend working with her. Her classes are very personalized and never boring!

Many thanks for your patience during this lesson because the internet connection wasn’t very good and I had a hard time to keep my attention.
