I'm very open-minded so if you want something different message me or book a trial lesson and we can discuss your needs. I’ve been teaching English to non-native speakers since 2016.

Steve is a very many-sided and open-minded person, with whom every conversation brings something new. I learn new things about the UK (culture, public affairs etc.) and many new expressions in every lesson. I definitely recommend lessons with Steve to anyone who wants to have really good conversations.

Steve is really involved in conversation and that unables you to stay involved yourself and show your best at speaking.

This was my last lesson with Steve because I do not need his services anymore. I can only give positive feedback. I have always had great talks with him and he was always willing to find answers to my questions :). I like his flexibility and as he adapted very well to my needs! Thank you Steve for everything!!
