Testimonies from current and former students
“My goal when I came to Michael was to improve my English and to find my way back into the workforce in a new country.
He promptly convinced me that he understood my individual needs, and more specifically, the unique needs of newcomers to the United States. I quickly learned to trust him and became comfortable working online with him. He helped me edit my resume and cover letter, as well as giving me feedback for how to adjust these for my job applications.
As time passed, I became more and more confident in my ability to converse with others, and as a result, I’ve received many new job opportunities. I can actually participate in job interviews without feeling self-conscious or out of place!
I would recommend Michael to anyone seeking language training! He was very supportive and enjoyable!”
-Vitaly, Desktop Engineer from Sochi, Russia.
“After only a month, my accent is disappearing and my spoken English has improved dramatically. Unbelievable progress from someone that was incapable of speaking English clearly before. The lift in confidence, I feel, is the main contributing factor to my increased ability.“
-Moonseok, Martial Arts Gym Owner from Changwon, South Korea
“Michael created amazing custom role plays to help me with my calls for work; they felt like real calls from real customers. He took the time to listen to me, to understand how my job works and what my concerns were. He gave me helpful feedback on my presentation that I could use right away, and specific exercises for me to practice my speaking and listening skills as homework.”
-Mayela, Sales Representative from Colombia, South America
“Working with Michael has been very helpful. I’m getting along better with my coworkers and managers and I have started going to the company happy hours. I have started making connections and friends because of my work with Michael. I feel confident in voicing my opinion and I feel okay when I make mistakes. I am getting better at understanding the subtle communications in the workplace.”
-Zhang, Marketing Database Analyst, from Chengdu, China
“I understood, English but I was struggling with my classes and I didn’t understand why. Michael was able to read my classwork assignments and quickly explain things in a way that was like “aha” moments for me. He asked me questions that caused me to think differently and he also went into enough detail so that I could complete my assignments going forward without needing assistance.”
-Umme, College Student from Jaipur, India
