Hello, eager students! I'm Stallone, your English teacher from the vibrant heart of South Africa. For 10 years, I've taught English, imparting my love for this global language to students of all levels. I've spent half this journey, a full 5 years, in South Korea, working in schools and even helping train fellow teachers at a language institute. My specialty is conversational English, and I'm known for my patience, kindness, and clarity of speech. In my leisure time, I soak up music and culture, journey through the globe, delve into the world of politics, lose myself in books, and unwind with movies. I'm thrilled to join you on your English learning adventure!

I've been taking lessons with Stallone for a year now and what I can say is that from the first class until now I never get bored. These lessons are very diverse, Stallone has a superb learning methodology that makes you never get bored, that you continue to evolve without realizing it and consolidate what you have learned. When I started lessons with him I was not at all comfortable speaking and I lacked confidence but he knows how to put his students at ease and help them gain confidence and he always has a word of encouragement! He is truly an excellent teacher, very dynamic and always in a good mood !! I highly recommend it !

It's worth celebrating that I have been studying English with Stallone for the first anniversary now. Stallone has helped me a lot, he is an experienced teacher and very patient. He prepares new slides for each lesson. Time flies during our lessons as he always picks up really interesting topics. Sometimes lessons are more like a conversation with a friend rather than just a lesson. In this year I have a huge progress and I feel more confident. At the beginning of learning I could only speak a few words and couldn't say a complete sentence. Now I can explain a topic by myself, even though is not perfect.
Thanks a lot!
Highly recommended!
