It was a wonderful lesson! Mike is a super-professional English teacher. He not only explains well but also feels when the student finds it difficult to answer and selects simpler words and expressions. Thanks a lot to Mike for your patience and your time! Sincerely, your student, Sergio! I recommend this teacher to everyone! Это был замечательный урок! Майк сверх-профессионалный учитель английского. Он не только хорошо объясняет, но и прекрасно чувствует когда ученик затрудняется ответить и подбирает более простые слова и выражения. Большое спасибо Майк за терпение и за Ваше время! С глубоким уважением, ваш ученик, Серджио! Рекомендую всем данного преподавателя!

It's really enjoyable talking with you and sharing with you some of my experience, you are absolutely a devoted teacher who helps me with my English speaking!, Thank you so much for your effort in our session.

If I find an oasis for myself, shall I enjoy it alone or share it and save others? If I discover a Yo’semite, shall I keep it private or make it into a national park? This beautiful place, Yosemite, is beautiful partly because it is quiet and uninhabited. If I share it, it may be spoiled by the multitudes. My private beach is fascinating because I am alone on it. Shall I share it and make it unprivate? And suppose I value the life of the cows in India that are starving? If I don't kill them, the babies die because they have no milk. Which is right? If I feed the hungry children in a poor country, am I robbing my own children? If I use my dollars to feed the hungry elsewhere, who takes care of the local poor? How much dare I sacrifice for the strangers? How much dare I hang onto for my own family? How much dare I keep for myself?These problems cannot be solved by rules, equations, or computations. They require wisdom, judgment, maturity, firmness, even ruthlessness.

Mike is a great teacher. I enjoy every class with Mike. He is helpful and supportive. If you want to improve your writing skills, Mike is the best teacher who can help you reach a goal.

While reading the book Through the Eye of a Needle: Wealth, the Fall of Rome, and the Making of Christianity in the West, 350-550 AD, I arrived at an interesting and paradoxical conclusion. The book mentions that due to Christ's teachings – that it is harder for rich people to enter heaven than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle – many wealthy individuals of that era chose to donate their wealth and adopt an ascetic lifestyle. Precisely because of this, the Christian Church became increasingly wealthy. However, by the late Middle Ages, bishops were corrupted by their wealth. Compared to the Christian believers of nearly a thousand years prior, they had, ironically, forgotten, or perhaps chosen not to believe, the teachings of Christ.

Albert Speer occupied a uniquely privileged position within the Third Reich, wielding architectural power perhaps unparalleled in modern history. As Adolf Hitler's chief architect, and later Minister of Armaments, Speer commanded vast resources and enjoyed extraordinary creative freedom. This enabled him to conceptualize and begin realizing monumental projects on a staggering scale, most famously the grandiose plans to transform Berlin into the imposing world capital, "Germania." This exceptional freedom, however, was inextricably tied to serving a regime responsible for unimaginable atrocities. It raises a profound and haunting hypothetical question: If Speer could have glimpsed the future—witnessing the full, horrifying reality of the Holocaust—would he have made different choices?
