The lesson today was great we interacted with each other a lot and I had fun. But Garry prepared a Skript with very usefull phrases and examples from a production facility. I think if I constanly prepare and attend to the lessons I will improve my English.

I would definitely say it's my best choice to take lessons of Gary. It's definitely worth it. I would not have imagined he would prepared so much for my lesson which is so customized and targeted. It perfectly meets all my need. I wanted to prepare myself of a Job Interview. Gary went through carefully of my CV and the JD and prepared questions for a Mock Interview, not that kinds of cliche questions but questions highly related to my background and my future role of this job. Furthermore, he gave me very detailed feedback and valuable and workable tips so I can improve myself afterwards. Thanks soooooo much for your help, Gary.
