I like working with Dennis. He is intelligent, calm, curious and easy to work with. Our classes are effectively long conversations with structure around them, just as I wanted. He is obviously a native US English speaker and the fact that he speaks very clearly allows me to pick up subtle US English pronunciation sounds.

Mr. Dennis is puncture, he started the session 15 minutes before our deadline. He has a clear and comfortable voice, I was feeling that he was studying me and my abilities so he'll be able to put me on the right plan.
That was my first online session at all, my main concern is to practice extensive conversation, it was my pleasure to speak with him, he asks questions all time to urge me to speak, I am planning to buy more lessons to continue learning with him.
