Today was my trial lesson with Ekim. At first he checked my English level for his individual program. After that we told about my plans to English learning. The atmosphere in the lesson was friendly and safety. He tried to explain all unknown for me words in simple terms, I think it's more important than only translate to your native language.
This format helps develop conversational speech. I enjoyed it, so I'll continue studying with Ekim.
