I took the Private Intensive English Course, with a focus on conversation and I learned a lot. Rose is a great and experienced teacher, with a lot of business knowledge. Rose gave her own twist on the two hour sessions, we spoke about a variety of subjects from business to casual.I enjoyed the pronunciation exercises the most, they could be difficult but gave me a more confident feeling to use English on a day to day base.I highly recommend the English Teaching centre and Rose as your native teacher!

We start class by chatting and then my teacher notes down my slip-ups and things I need to work on; my homework for the next class.

I had a great experience with The English Center. It was super easy and quick to arrange the classes in the format I expected. I want to especially recommend my teacher - Rose. Her lessons are always fun while also structured and fit to purpose. I was really impressed how Rose picked up on my pronunciation missteps and helped to improve those in a fun and interactive way! Last but not least, Rose is an amazing person, she will keep you engaged on every level, pick up on the latest world developments, recommend a nice book or laugh about recent tv show you both happened to watch.read more
