Rebecca is highly professional and quickly identified my weak points, like grammar and speaking fluency. She designs every lesson around my needs, so I’m always working on what matters most. She is very encouraging and never makes me feel embarrassed about my mistakes. Thanks to her targeted teaching, my confidence has grown a lot.

I really enjoy studying with Rebecca. We always discuss interesting topics, chat a lot, practice grammar, and watch interesting videos. I'm starting to feel like I can speak more English and am expanding my vocabulary.

I had more than a hundred classes with Rebecca on scientific editing and proofreading of my scientific articles in the fields of astronomy, physics and engineering. On my last article, we spent dozens of classes, we had 3 loops of editing. Finally, the article successfully passed through the English language edition board of the well-known magazine Photonics MDPI (Impact Factor: 2.4, 2022) with only 2 small remarks, and it was published. I may recommend Rebecca not only as a general English teacher but also as a teacher for specific purposes such as scientific editing.
