Hello, Mrs. Bruce I write to you because, I am a little bit concern with my husband classes. Despite he likes the conversation with you, I noticed he feel like more stressful, I think if you change the subject of your conversation no related to his work. Please consider it for one of your upcoming classes. Also, ask his feedback he feel something is missing. Thanks. Andreina I have a friend who wants to have ESL/ESOL lesson. DO you have time?
