"I highly recommend this business English course! It's a very good mix of grammar and free speaking. We are talking about business topics but also topics, that are interesting for us personally. I feel very comfortable in this class! Alex is extremely knowledgeable and helpful and he is completely responsive to our needs. This often means spontaneous changes of the plan during a lesson 🙂 Thank you, Alex, English is really fun this way and exactly the way we need it for our day-to-day business."
"During my traineeship in Germany, I have one lesson a week with my English teacher Alex. If you are expecting boring and monotonous English lessons like in your school time than I definitely have to disappoint you. Unlike at school, your teacher is a real help and there is space and time to fail which supports me to increase my English skills in speaking and writing. The lessons are particularly well structed, and I like the little discussion rounds in the beginning. Furthermore, the course material is adapted to your level of English so that you are neither over nor under challenged."
"Alex has been my German and English teacher for four years. During that time, I achieved level B2 in German and proficiency in English. Alex's style is fun but very effective and the results I achieved have gone beyond my expectations. As a teacher he is always very organized and approachable. Due to my work with Alex, my business has grown significantly. Not only does he reveal the language structure but also gives you a great insight into cultural etiquette and manners, which differ from my native background. Therefore, I believe that by working with Alex you will gain much more than just learning English and German!"
