A big thumbs up👍 for Hester. She is a thoughtful, professional tutor with well-structured and personalised class materials.
Today, our topics focused on my interviews with international companies. Hester provided some views that I had never noticed before (since there are huge cultural gaps between China and Ireland), gave me a better understanding of Western/European communication skills and clarified some language expressions that confused me for a long time.
I highly recommend anyone who wants to improve their English and communication skills study with Hester.

Hester is a very professional teacher; she provided me with a wonderful class that focuses on communication and small talk. We talked about local culture and some culture shocks in Ireland... I will definitely book more classes with her!

First of all, I sincerely thank Hester. I have been taking her course for about a year, and from the initial nervousness to the natural sharing, I have truly gained a lot under her guidance. Learning a foreign language not only requires inputting knowledge, but also outputting what you have learned. Fortunately, I met Hester and not only did I receive excellent English correction courses, but we also discussed our perspectives about society and culture . We often have similar perspectives, which makes me very excited and I am very willing to share them in English. This greatly promotes my enthusiasm for English learning. I have good English friends around me, but none of them can compare to directly communicating with an English native speaker to correct my English writing, speaking, reading, and listening skills. Hester is a very gentle, elegant and cute teacher. We would laugh together in class, and at that moment, I felt the beauty of learning another language.
