Mike is a great teacher and conversationalist! It was nice to meet him and talk about a lot of topics in English such as Turkey, languages, my country and my city, the United States, food, etc. Mike is kind, respectful and he is interested to learn about different countries and cultures, such as Russian! It was an amazing conversation and I hope to see him again soon! Thanks very much for the lesson!

It was nice to see Mike again and have a great conversation about foreign languages, food, cultural differences, countries that I'd like to visit, etc. Mike is nice, kind, respectful and he is curious to learn more about my country (Russia) and others! It was a tremendous conversation as always and it was nice to see him again! I hope to see him again soon! Thank you so much for this interesting conversational lesson!

Oh my gosh, Mike is truly such a wonderful, caring, and energetic teacher. I know a lot of people’s introduction videos look very friendly, but believe me—this teacher is ten times better than his video. From the very first moment you talk to him, you’ll find it incredibly engaging. He can open up so many interesting topics, and it really proves that interest is the best teacher. Having lessons with him will definitely keep you motivated and interested.
