Thank you very much Josh for every lesson this year. You have been a great tutor who helped me when I felt frustrated about my English. You showed me that making mistakes is natural. Every mistake means a small step forward with my English. Your encouragement, explanations, honesty and guidance have been superb. I wish you merry christmas and happy new year! See you in 2020!

Josh was very supportive and patient. He explains clearly his methods and encourage the conversation. He showed me when I made mistakes, in a kind way, without being rude. He also shows interest in what I was saying, what makes me feel comfortable on keep talking without embarrassment.
