I have been having lessons with Vicky for over 6 months now. She's been extremely helpful with improving my pronunciation and academic writing skills. She is very patient and knowledgable and is able to explain everything in a way that I understand.
I highly recommend her. Thank you Vicky :)

I don't know how it happened, but I found the teacher I dreamed of. Vicky is a warm and patient person who approaches each lesson in a personal way. I've made huge progress in all skills in English, but I don't want to lie, most of what I've achieved is Vicky's hard work.
I will thank Vicky thousands of times, and I hope I will in future lessons.
