Teacher’s pick
I struggled with my English speaking skills for a long time. I have studied with a number of teachers in group classes and private lessons, but no one could point out my weaknesses as clearly as Mandy did.
Initially, she emphasized that I needed to improve my pronunciation to be clear and understandable for native speakers. While she couldn't teach pronunciation directly, she guided me to resources where I could practice and gave me the opportunity to show her my progress, offering affirmation and support. Thanks to her assistance, my confidence in speaking has improved, and I have stopped mumbling.
Next, my weakest point, which was grammar, became the focus. I constantly forget to use basic grammatical structures such as 's/es' and proper tenses. Mandy helped me acquire the tools necessary to speak mindfully. She took her job seriously and ensured that I made progress.
Even after achieving my desired scores, I continued taking classes with her because she is a kind sister figure...
