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.

Another joyful and valuable class with Hester! Hester has extensive work and life experience across different countries, including Spain, France, Ireland, and more. She has a thoughtful, inclusive, diverse, and critical mindset that helps students develop better ideas on how to build a positive personal image in the workplace. Today we discussed European workplace culture, focusing on social events for different occasions, such as Christmas parties and annual parties. As a student who moved from Asia to Europe, she has made my life much easier. She has helped me significantly improve my English, cultural difference awareness, local social etiquettes.

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!

I've been taking classes with Hester for almost a year now, and it's been incredibly rewarding! Today, we discussed unique grammar and expressions that exist in English but not in Chinese. Hester is a highly professional, patient, and genuinely helpful teacher, and her lesson notes also contribute significantly to my learning. With her guidance, I've improved in many areas, including natural English expressions, grammar, interview techniques, social skills, and insights into Irish culture. I will definitely continue learning with her, and I also highly recommend anyone who wants to bring their English to a professional level to learn with Hester.
