Mr Clinton is a fantastic teacher. He helped me preparing for my IELTS test. We talked about different topics and shared deep conversation through the process. He is a good listener and corrected my mistakes all the time. With his help, I got a 7.5 band score. Highly recommend!

Mr. Clinton is an excellent teacher and a person who is kind and knowledgeable and cares about his students. He is so patient in a way that you can feel free to talk about anything.
For those who are seeking a teacher with a pure American accent, he is the best choice. You can get accustomed to his American accent through listening to him. For me, this is very important.
Additionally, he offers materials that cater to the needs of all individuals.
Personally, I learned a lot from him.
