Then I watched one of our classes from last week, and I know I have much to improve. But I'm very glad of my results "until now." Thanks for your patience in helping me. Even my communication has gotten better, because when we started, I was very shy and always felt embarrassed to speak Jim, thank you for everything... I felt so tired when I started the lesson, but now I feel good... You guide me with your perspective on life in our lessons. I hope I am expressing myself better, and we can talk about many more topics in the future 🙏🏻 Have a good week. See you next week Hi Jim! I really enjoyed the first lesson, even if it was only for a few minutes. I had a lot of fun and it helped me overcome some of my shyness and feel confident during the lesson. I was happy to spend my first class with you. This account is for my sister and I took her to try the class. When I saw you and saw the beautiful class, I signed up for a special account for myself and I will continue with you. I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed today’s lesson—it was both fun and incredibly helpful! I learned a lot, and I truly appreciate the thoughtful feedback and suggestions you gave me. I’ll make sure to work on them and come better prepared next time. I’m already looking forward to our next session! Thank you again for your guidance and support. Thank you so much for your help! Talking to you has been incredibly helpful in making me sound more natural and in gaining insights on how to approach interviews. You quickly understood what his company does and what I could offer. It took you like two minutes to fill me in on the key points! Thank you for this incredible class. I left it stronger and more confident. I really appreciate you sharing your experience and helping me so much. It's a privilege. Just wanted to say a big thank you for helping me prepare for the interview, it really helped a lot! I got a call today and… I passed the final interview! They said I’ve been selected for the position. Thank you very much for your support today ！！ I am looking forward to meeting you soon ✨ You are so kind and patient. Your advice gave me confidence. You made my day! Jim, you really are my treasure mentor!! See you in next class😊 love you❤❤❤ Jim! I would like to tell you that I appreciate the way we are doing our classes because I am stepping out of my comfort zone when I have to ready and understand what I’m reading! It is something that I usually avoid to do and now I am not afraid of it. I am very lucky to work with you. It is beneficial for me to go over my shortcomings. I could not repeat a little this week due to the holiday. But I will make up for it next week☺️ PERSONAL CLASS LIBRARY 📚 The essays are recommended for intermediate-level students or higher and include a vocabulary list from the essay.
