What my students say

I've been taking classes with Richard since 2024 and the progress has been incredible. When I started I didn't even know the verb 'to be'. Today I hold fluent conversations, handle job interviews and read books in English. He pinpoints your weak spots and works on them, and I've completely lost my fear of speaking.

I wanted to improve my fluency and feel more natural speaking English. Richard's lessons were engaging, patient and tailored exactly to what I needed. My confidence grew immensely and I felt far more comfortable in real-world situations. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Richard was incredibly patient with me, and our conversations always felt so natural that sometimes I forgot he was actually teaching me. That says a lot about the way he teaches.

Thanks to Richard's excellent teaching, guidance and dedication, I passed the Cambridge C1 Advanced exam with confidence.

Richard helped me reach the level I needed to pass the Cambridge exam. His lessons were engaging and a lot of fun, and he's a great, affable person, which made the whole process much easier.

Richard is the most caring and friendly teacher I ever had. He is dedicated and passionate about his job, and he does it extremely well. I enjoyed every single minute of our lessons, with all the patience and understanding he gave.

I've known Richard since 2011 and taken lessons with him both in groups and one-to-one. He explains English in a clear, simple way, adapting to each student's level, and his lessons are dynamic and enjoyable. I'd recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their English or become more confident using it.

I started lessons with Richard at A1 level, needing B1 English for a specific branch of my profession. Over around 40 lessons he was much more than a dedicated teacher: he kept me motivated and adapted every lesson to my needs and goals. He doesn't simply prepare you to pass an exam; his goal is English you can actually use in everyday life. I passed the Cambridge B1 exam feeling 100% ready.

I was unsure about getting a personal teacher, but a friend introduced me to Richard and I can't thank that friend enough. He guided me through the Cambridge Advanced units, making them feel easy and entertaining. I passed with flying colours.

I'm so glad I came across Richard. He gives you a lot of content and makes very dynamic lessons. He really is a great teacher with great ideas, and you learn so much from him.

My lessons with Richard were great: very clear and helpful.

I contacted Richard because I wanted to maintain, and above all improve, my English. He adapted to my needs and preferences while making sure I was challenged, and the lesson content was always engaging and varied. His personality brings real life to the classes. I sincerely recommend his lessons; they have made me feel much more confident in English.

Richard's guidance and support during my IELTS classes and university application were invaluable. His classes helped me learn the key aspects of each section of the IELTS exam, and my confidence in speaking English has improved significantly. He was always patient and encouraging, taking the time to explain difficult concepts clearly and making sure I truly understood the material before moving on. Definitely 100% recommended.

Richard is a fantastic teacher: patient, knowledgeable and always able to make the lessons enjoyable. He has helped me enormously with my English over the years, but more importantly, he has also become a very good friend. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Richard is an amazing teacher and a wonderful person. I attended his IELTS preparation classes and one-to-one online lessons, and both were exceptional. He is well organised, patient, knowledgeable and very easy to communicate with. He helped me immensely with improving my English. Highly recommended.

I started learning Spanish with Richard as a complete beginner, and he was incredibly friendly, patient and informative throughout. He made learning the basics feel easy and enjoyable, while helping me build my confidence and develop my Spanish further. Thanks to his guidance, I'm now taking the exciting step of moving to Alicante with my partner. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.
