Aibek is a Computer Programmer from Kazakhstan. He's studying Computer Science in South Korea, and I helped him prepare for an Internship interview he had at Google.
"Thank you Ricky! You don't know how helpful this interview was for me! I am feeling a lot more comfortable now, and you gave me very helpful advice. I will recommend you to my fellow students. This interview was far greater beyond my expectations!"

"... To everyone who might be thinking about booking a class with Roderick:
All I have to say is: What a wonderful way of learning with him! Even when he's a native speaker, it's very easy to understand his speech, very clear, very precise, he gets to the point when teaching, making the students understand very quickly, and teaching the most important point for someone who wants to learn english: He makes you THINK in English. When someone asks me for an English teacher, I always recommend him, for me he's just the best. ..."

Hi, my name is Francisco Rodriguez, I am a JAVA Developer from Bogota, Colombia.
When I meet Roderick in October 2015, I was a little anxious because in that moment my English was not strong as it is now. I was not confident with my skills. However at the first class we had, I realized that it would be a nice starting point to bring back my interest in learning English. The way he encourages his students to learn using different tools is very interesting and refreshing. I liked the bulletin that he sends every week to my email (I still keep those as study material) as well all the cultural topics we discussed in the course. I learned interesting things about him and New Zealand!.
We had a positive relationship. I never got bored in any of his courses because I noticed his concern about coaching and supporting me and his other students. There are few coaches in the world that are interested in their students development and improvement. So, then I challenge Roderick to keep doing the things with the same passion and commitment as he is doing every day.
I'm very happy he decided to build his own english coaching platform-business.
Have a great day.
PD. Sorry by the grammar mistakes. I'm pushing myself to improve.

I met Ricky in my current job, he was the English instructor of the company and I really appreciated his effort in every class.Ricky is an excellent coach who combines theory with a modern approach, he supports web tools to avoid the routine.
Another special aspect I like to point out is that Ricky also learns about you, your likes and interests and through them, he works on the aspects we need to improve.

I knew Ricky when he worked in my company as our English teacher.
His methodology to teach is different from other teachers, because apart from teaching grammar, he follows the process for each person and give their respective feedback and in the end he ends up being your friend.
He specializes in Software and Web developers, because he worked with a bunch of them. So his technical vocabulary is very helpful.
Finally, since he has English as his native language, you can learn not just formal English, you can also learn colloquial vocabulary from all around the world. It's great to learn English with him.

I met Rick a few years ago and since then we created a nice friendship, mainly founded on swimming, football and of course Liverpool FC. He is a really nice guy always willing to help whenever you are in doubt. He is very easy to talk to. It does not matter whether you are a beginner or an advanced student, he has always something to teach you, additionally, he teaches useful tools to constantly improve your level. He is also very adaptable, you can learn a lot by only sharing a coffee or even a beer or you can also learn lots in a “normal” class.

To whom it may concern,
I highly recommend Roderick as an Online English Coach.
As Co-owner and Business Manager of a Software Development Company, I have had the pleasure of working with Roderick for the past seven years. He is a passionate, organized teacher who develops inspiring relationships with his students.
Roderick always tries to develop his skills as a teacher, and his move into course design and development, is a natural progression for him.
I recommend Roderick to you without reservation, especially if you work in the I.T. area, and you want to improve your English to take the next step in your career.
