I’ve been learning from Hester for over a year and a half, and she has been outstanding. Recently, I had to deliver a large AI innovation presentation to hundreds of people. As a non‑native speaker, presenting in English on such a complex topic was challenging. With very limited time, Hester gave me three focused coaching sessions that improved my fluency and natural delivery. Her professional guidance made all the difference and absolutely boosted my confidence. If you need a supportive and professional English coach, I highly recommend Hester.

I had three consistent mock interviews with Hester these days. She is so efficient and supportive, she understands my position and interview materials in a very short time even these are involved in technology. We practiced a large scope of questions that may be asked in the interview, and she helped me a lot to clear my mind, organized all answers in a highly structured way. I highly recommend you to practice with Hester if you want to rock your interview.

Hester is a great teacher! She helped me with business presentations, business English. Especially with sounding more confident in self-presentation, which I was really struggling with. She corrected my pronunciation, and already after just five lessons I saw huge progress 💗

Hester has taken me on a deep dive into the language and culture at a native level. Each lesson is like a step forward—uncovering new expressions, social nuances, and local traditions. Her lessons are always insightful, practical, and engaging! After more than a year of studying with Hester, I can clearly see my growth. A year ago, I was a fresh graduate who was too shy to speak up, often felt lost in small talks, and didn’t even know how to respond to compliments. But now, I can confidently deliver presentations to higher management, communicate with people fluently and naturally, and even can make lighthearted jokes to put others at ease. It was well worth the time and effort and gave me a great sense of accomplishment. I want to give Hester credit for this—I wouldn’t have achieved it without her consistent support and guidance. I will definitely continue studying with her!
