Jamie speaks very clearly, which helps me immensely to follow conversations. Furthermore, he asks exactly the right questions and strikes the perfect balance between listening and talking himself. Talking to him helps me a lot.

English classes with Jamie have been a great experience. From the very first class, it’s very easy to build trust with him. He corrects mistakes in a kind and respectful way, and always takes the time to explain things to you. Conversations flow naturally — it’s easy to talk to him and feel comfortable, even if you’re shy or not very confident with your English. Highly recommended!

I had my first class, and it was a great experience. We started by getting to know each other and discussing my goals. Then we created a plan to help me improve. He is friendly, respectful, and corrects your mistakes in a supportive way.
