REVIEWS
Thank you very much for everything. I have been studying with Michael for 3 years. The quality of emotional interpersonal communication is very important to me. Many people know English. But for me, how I feel during the lesson, how I feel after the lesson is very important. Michael is a very sensitive, empathetic, kind person. He is a creative person with a rich inner world and he has a lot of light in his soul. For 3 years I always felt myself very good, calm, free. All the lessons were interesting, easy, pleasant. Everything was great!!! Michael is much more than a teacher for me, he is an interesting and harmonious person, a wonderful friend. Communication with Michael always enriches my personality in various aspects, and not only in learning English, much more… Thank you very and very much !!!!!!!

I highly recommend Michael as a great tutor. My goal was to improve my speaking skills, and thanks to his guidance, I now feel much more confident and comfortable when speaking - an essential skill for my job. Michael creates a friendly and supportive learning environment, which greatly enhances the learning process and helps build confidence.

If you want to enhance your English skills and enjoy your lessons at the same time, I can fully recommend you choose Michael as your teacher. He is excellent, supportive, and inspiring. I share the lessons with my colleague, and I must confess I was a little skeptical before we started. I wondered if the online lessons could really help us improve our writing skills, but now I’m really impressed by the huge progress we made over the past months. Michael makes the lessons very engaging, and I really like our discussions over our homework that naturally refine our knowledge and skills without dwelling on mistakes. I always look forward to seeing him again.

The only reason why I don't want to leave a review for Michael is that the more reviews he gets, the harder it is to schedule a lesson! :) That was pure luck to find Michael immediately upon regeistration on this platform. He has a broad vision of the world, and that's a real pleasure to discuss any complicated topic with him. I enjoy every lesson with Michael, and happy that I've found not only an English tutor but also a soulmate!

Frankly, I'm not sure that Michael is an ideal tutor for those who search for instant results in learning. Slow down, there is no need to rush here. Michael's focus is on gradual progress in building more solid knowledge, and you, meanwhile, steadily gain a sense of confidence. And he is really good at giving it, I must add. In his characteristic manner, with patience, attentiveness, and, perhaps more importantly, honesty and open-mindedness, Michael might be of help if you want to enrich your language experience and improve your conversational skills.

Michael is a great and supportive teacher. We discussed our needs and targets at the beginning of our sessions, and he's got it very well. But still, he is interested in our feedback over time if we feel satisfied and the lessons are helpful. He uses various tools and exercises to deepen and fix our knowledge. I've noticed an incredible improvement after a few months. And I feel more and more confident thanks to his lessons. He's excellent in providing the corrections without making feel you are stupid :-) I really appreciate his approach and recommend him as an English teacher.
