Fenny M.

9 English lessons

Elena taught me how to speak, read and write with proper English. She taught how to speak with correct pronunciation, so I can reduce my accent. After Elena taught me everything I need to improve my English. Now, I can speak English more confident and natural than before. Also I can write English with correct grammar. As someone who has gone through her English tutorial. I highly recommend Elena; she has extensive knowledge of teaching English for ESL student.

First of all, Karen always makes me feel at ease. This gives me confidence, so I enjoy speaking English. Even if I use broken English or my pronunciation is repeatedly wrong, she corrects my mistakes kindly. That is a big chance for to me to improve my English without fear. Karen's tolerant attitude encourages me to speak English more. I have also learned to speak English efficiently in class with Karen.

Moreover, it is also easy to talk with her about any topic. I am so thankful to her because she helped me lose my fear of speaking English and even using awful English grammar. Since I started taking lessons with Ursula, my English skills have improved so much that I now prefer reading English books and watching films in English; I am no longer afraid to speak and write to native English speakers. I highly recommend this tutor!
