Rosemary is an absolutely fascinating teacher. Her classes make me confident and push my boundaries. I have been studying with Rosemary for more than 6 months twice per week. This time together helped me to be prepared for IELTS, apply for the master's programs at the top British Universities, and start writing articles in English. Thank you, Rosemary, for your professionalism and sincerity.

Lovely conversation as always. What's more, Rosemary's classes helped me to achieve the 230 scores for the Proficiency speaking paper in December 2021. Thanks a lot!

Teaching Approach
Student-centered methodology.
Lessons will be tailor-made to fit your needs, goals and interests. I present material clearly and check to make you're comfortable with the pace.
We will work together systematically to make step-by-step progress using a teaching method to suit how you learn best.
Flexible, patient, and encouraging teaching - I’m learning Greek so I know how it feels to be a language learner!
