I've really enjoyed learning with Chris from Manchester. Every session is dynamic, well prepared, and based on genuine communication rather than textbook exercises. His feedback is always clear, practical, and immediately useful, helping me communicate more naturally and confidently in English. If you're looking for a teacher who genuinely cares about your progress, I highly recommend booking a trial lesson with Chris. I'm confident you'll quickly understand why I keep coming back.

I loved Chris's class. It was dynamic, and we worked on reading, speaking, and listening. In class, I spend most of my time talking, which is great for my shyness. From the very beginning, he gave me materials to work with. His feedback is very good. He makes you see the things you do well and where you need to pay more attention, and he keeps m positive about my progress. I recommend him 100%.

I've been taking classes with Chris for the past year and a half, and I can honestly say that I enjoy them immensely. Chris is not only an excellent teacher but also a genuinely friendly and approachable person who creates a comfortable and supportive learning environment. I attend the lessons together with my colleagues, and one of the things I appreciate most is how often we can discuss work-related topics that help us improve our English in marketing and corporate settings. At the same time, I also enjoy working through advanced C1–C2 level materials and books that cover a wide range of interesting and thought-provoking subjects. Chris always keeps the lessons engaging, relevant, and tailored to our needs. Thanks to his teaching style, I've become much more confident in using English both professionally and in everyday conversations. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to improve their English, prepare for a language exam, or enhance their business communication skills.

BBC Speak Out is used during the class, but the teacher also customise different topics for students. He is always patient and helps a lot with my spoken English. What’s more - Glory glory Man United!🤩
