James and I have been working together for almost 4 years now. He has helped me progress from the beginner to the C1 speaking level. His lessons are always focused and structured but they are fun and engaging at the same time. I am a lawyer and law professor and James has taught me a lot about legal English and I feel like I can speak about legal concepts in English confidently now. James and I have frequently worked on editing my legal articles that I publish in English. We work on preparing for lectures I need to give in English and helping me write messages and communicate with my foreign colleagues and collaborators. I highly recommend him.

I hope my review will help those who is just choosing a teacher at the moment looking throught all this profiles. I enjoy every lesson with James. The classes are always interesting, full of positive energy and personalized to my needs - that is the main. I’ve improved my speaking skills more than I expected for so short time since we had our first class, though i still have a lot of things to work on, of cource.

It has been a long time since I learned English with James. I never had the idea of changing teachers. We have worked together continuously. He never gave up on teaching me and I think my English is improving continuously. James has taught me how to speak correctly and correct my sentences. I am exited to do classes with him because we have interesting topics to discuss. I wish to dream the stories in English someday. That means I can speak English fluently. Thanks James.

Was a great trial run. James strived to provide the vulnerable space where you can (more like encourage to) make mistakes so that you can learn from them without feeling embarrassment.

It's been a month since I last attended classes. I really miss Teacher James. I thought he had forgotten me, hahaha (just kidding). To my surprise, his first words were that he was very glad to see me again! He is an extremely excellent and kind teacher. I will remember this moment.🎀❤️
