As a Spanish person, I had been pronouncing English for years the way I was originally taught, without realizing that many sounds were not actually correct. David is helping me break those habits and understand how English sounds are really produced. Thanks to this, I am not only improving my pronunciation but also my listening skills, because I am starting to notice nuances that I used to miss. He has a great ability to explain complex concepts in a simple and practical way. He is an excellent teacher, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who, like me, learned English years ago and wants to genuinely improve the way they speak and understand the language.

Como español, llevaba años pronunciando el inglés de la forma en que me lo enseñaron originalmente, sin darme cuenta de que muchos sonidos no eran realmente correctos. David me está ayudando a romper esos hábitos y a entender cómo se producen realmente los sonidos del inglés. Gracias a ello no solo estoy mejorando mi pronunciación, sino también mi comprensión auditiva, porque empiezo a percibir matices que antes se me escapaban. Si aprendiste inglés hace años y sientes que te has estancado, es un profesor muy bueno y recomendable

David is an amazing English teacher! You can really see that he puts his heart into teaching. He’s always patient, supportive, and tries to make every lesson fun and useful. Thanks to him, learning English has become something I actually enjoy. I really appreciate his effort and positive energy!

David’s English lessons are well-organized. Because he has a lot of experience, he understands what students need and includes it in the lessons. He teaches not only words and phrases that match my level but also useful English for daily life in Cork, Ireland. There is time to review and practice speaking with the new expressions, which makes learning easier and more effective.

David is a natural! He is patient, very organised, explains really well and he is very funny as well! He was very flexible and I really liked his approach when teaching and his way to deal with his students, being very understanding and kind. Highly recommended!

My friend advised me to take English lessons with a native speaker and recommended David. I am very happy with our lessons. David is a very tactful, sociable and organized teacher. I really like our lessons because David finds interesting topics for me to talk about and this helps to remove the fear of the language barrier and break the ice. David mixes different types of practice, reading, speaking, listening and understanding, this helps to improve all aspects of English. The lessons are held in a very comfortable and positive atmosphere, and this is very important to maintain interest in learning. David makes effective learning comfortable. it's not a race, it's a journey. I would like to note that my understanding and speech have improved significantly, so I can say that I made the right choice of teacher and can confidently recommend him.

I heard about David a few months ago. He was recommended by a friend who told me he could help me to improve my English. Definitely he made me feel more confident speaking in English, as our classes were focus on conversation. The conversation topics were interesting and we always had fun correcting my mistakes and finding ways to improve.
