Every session feels like a fun and productive conversation rather than a traditional lesson. With Jay’s guidance, I've not just learning English, but I've started to think and feel in it.

Jay is an excellent listener and a thoughtful advisor. Our conversation was enjoyable. The feedback he provided on my pronunciation was very helpful to me!

Jay is an excellent teacher and his pronunciation is very clear. I also like that at the end of the lesson I get additional feedback on my mistakes during the lesson, including grammar.
