Good start in the week with a very well prepared lesson with Tom. We did a nice introduction in a new grammar topic and had some great free talking afterwards. In Toms lessons you are not afraid to express your thoughts even if words are missing. :)

I've enjoyed so much lessons with Tom. It's such an efficient way of learning. We are having longer conversations in pure Swedish now and I just had 5 lessons. It is really rewarding and fun learning Swedish thanks to Tom!

Tom is an outstanding teacher. I am so lucky to have found him. I am a linguist, polyglot and work on langauge learning for more than 8 years, and I can say he is definitely a hidden gem on Italki. If you want to improve fast in a really fun way, he is the guy!
