I've been working with Thomas for the past six months to improve my spoken French (I'm roughly at a B2 level). We discuss many interesting topics, and he provides corrections, vocabulary words, and related feedback along the way. He tailors our lessons to fit my interests and goals. On several occasions, he's taken the time to prepare vocabulary flashcards for me between lessons. In addition, he's encouraging, supportive, and kind. He always puts me at ease, helping me to relax and speak more freely. My spoken French has improved significantly since working with Thomas. He is a wonderful teacher. I recommend him very highly!
