"Adrian genuinely cares about his students and consistently goes above and beyond to push them to the next level. Even if you consider yourself fluent in English, he will find a way to elevate your language skills to a more native-like level. In fact, Adrian aims for his students to speak like he does, and he willingly shares his vast knowledge with them.

 

Adrian always goes the extra mile to thoroughly assess my essays and provides feedback that surpasses anything I've ever received before. It extends beyond mere correction of basic mistakes; it delves into enhancing creativity and achieving a more authentic, native-like writing style. Thanks to Adrian, my writing has improved beyond anything I thought possible.

 

And let's not forget about speaking. Adrian enriches each class with an array of advanced vocabulary and idiomatic expressions.

 

You will be absolutely delighted with the results of working with Adrian. Don't hesitate—sign up now!"

Senay B. (Translator)

"Before joining Adrian's classes, I had been looking for the longest time for an advanced course where I would be able to hone my speaking skills in terms of idiomatic expressions, elaborate language and pronunciation of tricky words. I also needed confidence with using natural language in longer conversations. When I found him, at last, I knew I could stop looking. When it comes to preparation, he does not use just any material randomly, but prepares grammar explanations and exercises as well as discussion questions himself, which include new words and expressions for us to revise and use in context. On top of this, he provides valuable insights into cultural matters and topics in and outside the UK. Never does he seem reluctant to answer any question and he always does so in the most patient and friendly of ways. As well as this, his corrections of written assignments are extremely useful with regard to register, style and use of language. When you get your essay or article back, you can hardly recognise your initial text. He is remarkably meticulous in his suggestions and there is always a thought-through structure but never rigid procedures. I feel that I have made incredible progress in the way I use language, and attending the classes regularly has given me far more confidence with speaking and writing".  

Liza A. (Teacher)

I had been learning English for more than 20 years before I started having classes with Adrian. I was sure that I excelled in English grammar, my vocabulary was rich enough to speak about almost any topic, and my essays were written logically and grammatically correctly. My goal was to sound like a native speaker, use advanced vocabulary in my everyday life and take the C2 exam. My first class was definitely an eye-opener, I literally had never learnt so much within two hours!

I have been having classes with Adrian for almost two years since then. Not only has he helped me to sound more natural and use English in a way that reflects my own style and ideas, but he has also corrected old mistakes, explained the trickiest grammar rules in his own unique style and taught how to put knowledge into practice.

Adrian is responsible and responsive, he is genuinely engaged in teaching and sharing his unlimited knowledge with his students. Adrian is always perfectly prepared to deliver the classes in a friendly manner and cater to the students’ needs.  He chooses up-to-date topics, knows answers to all the trickiest questions, sets high expectations and truly believes in all his students. Joining Adrian’s classes is getting the best of both worlds: learning English and finding out plenty of absolutely new information. Each class with Adrian is like a new book: you never know how the story is going to unfold but you are eager to find it out.

Having classes with Adrian has been the most invaluable experience in my English learning journey. I am planning to continue joining his classes, levelling up my English and passing the C2 exam with flying colours in the near future.
