I have known him for about three years now. Compared to three years ago, my English skills have certainly improved. He has helped me overcome my hesitation in speaking English and writing academic papers in English, and he has also guided me on how to make further improvements. I am deeply grateful to him, and I am determined to continue studying English in the future.

First lesson with Lester was great! He tailored the lesson and future lessons around my language-learning goals, presented me with material that was challenging but not impossible, and provided immediate feedback and explanations when needed. He is very knowledgeable about the language learning process and knows how to engage students effectively. I have booked future lessons and I would highly recommend!

Lester是我非常推薦的英文專業教師,為了協助我準備托福口說考試,他在第一堂課前查詢了托福最新的考試規則(2019年改制),準備了上課教材,提供口說問題的範例解答,並且希望我完成課後作業!除此之外,Lester很有熱忱,也具備了高素質的口說技巧,例如教我母語人士如何使用某些英文詞彙,以及母語人士如何發連音,因此我非常推薦Lester教師。 I highly recommend Lester as an English teacher. For assisting me to pass my TOEFL exam, he checked the latest rules of the TOEFL test, which had been updated in 2019, before our 1st class. What's more, he prepared some sample questions and answers that are relevant to TOEFL Speaking exam. In addition, he taught me how to use words as native speaker does. That's why I recommend Lester.

Lester-sensei is very friendly, cheerful, and helpful! He is fluent in English so it made it easy to communicate with him, and he was able to explain thoroughly.
