Tom is an excellent English teacher!
His teaching style is clear, engaging, and very effective. He creates a relaxed and friendly environment that makes you feel completely comfortable to speak and make mistakes – which is essential when learning a new language. I felt very at ease during the lesson and really appreciated his patience and encouragement. I’m looking forward to continuing the lessons with him!
