Her teaching experience is very valuable and helpful in preparing the interview. She looks through the school and department background with me and practices various interview scenarios based on my education, work experience, specialist knowledge, and areas of expertise. Through the preparation process, her guidance definitely helps me gain confidence, and improve my fluency, grammar and pronunciation. She also gives valuable and detailed feedback after each lesson. I would recommend her to everyone! โ€ฆ Kate was very professional in practising business interviews with me. She helped me organise my speech, and gave great advice on how I should answer some interview questions. Also, the questions she asked me was what my interviewers asked me in my actual interview! Without her help, I could not have received my offer. โ€ฆ Kate is a very passionate teacher. She will explain the rationale before going into interview questions. Not only did she pay attention to my pronunciation and grammar, she also helped me formulate/restructure my answers to make it more presentable in interviews. ๐Ÿ“š ๐—œ๐—˜๐—Ÿ๐—ง๐—ฆ ๐—ฆ๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜: It has been so worthwhile.

Expressing my opinions and ideas without any prior preparation was a challenging exercise, though very motivating and enjoyable. It is indeed an effective way to practise and improve listening and speaking skills while learning new vocabulary. Thanks Kate, I am looking forward to our next lesson!
