I found today’s trial lesson exciting, we’ve already discussed words that can help me sound more “fluent”. I’m glad that Samuel paid attention to my aims, so that even today we’ve diversified my speech :)))) 5x⭐️

Thank you for the useful tips for how to speak during the first and the second parts of the FCE exam. Also I would like to add that there was a feedback about my strengths and weaknesses, so I can understand them.

Lessons with Samuel are always beneficial and fun for me. I love that he pays attention, not only to simple grammatical mistakes but also to the logic of my thoughts. I highly recommend time with this teacher!
