The lesson was perfect. I had been looking for a really good teacher for a long time and was disappointed because I had taken a lot of classes and didn't progress. I finally found one. It's John. Everything I learn during the lesson helps me in my work and I am really satisfied. I learned in the last lesson: "Good things come to those who wait (who seek and are patient)." It's true.

John is a great teacher. I took emergency IELTS classes from him and in just 9 days (28 classes) he taught me a lot of exam strategies and gave me good advice. We focused on my needs and it really helped! We studied around 3 hours a day but I never got bored because the lessons were so fun and he had a lot of high-quality learning materials. He was prepared and that made me feel more relaxed cause I knew that I found the right teacher for my needs. I know that it's really hard for a teacher to teach the whole IELTS in 9 days but he didn't hesitate and he took the risk with me! I took the test yesterday and if I hadn't studied with John I could've failed it. I haven't received my IELTS results yet but I know that I did well and I'm not stressed about it at all. He's definitely the BEST teacher you can find on italki, I feel so lucky to have a teacher like John and I hope to learn more from him in future!

John is a great teacher who is patient, professional and knowledgeable. I’ve taken his IELTS lessons for more than a month and successfully improved my IELTS speaking score from band 5.5 to band 6.5. I’m so grateful!

John helps me a lot to improve my overall English proficiency. He customizes his teaching materials to suit my needs and consistently focuses on addressing my weaknesses during our lessons. Additionally, the review of my study progress at the end of each session is beneficial, as it helps me stay focused on the areas that require further improvement.
