From the very beginning, I felt reassured by how Carl communicated. He patiently answered all my questions and provided a detailed, structured study plan. Compared to my previous tutor, who only gave a rough direction, Carl’s approach made me feel confident and supported—so I went ahead with a trial. Now, after four sessions, including the trial, I’m really glad I made that decision. Carl is clearly a very experienced teacher. He can quickly identify key issues and offer targeted advice. Some of my progress has come from the support he gives outside of lessons—he carefully reviews my writing, provides detailed feedback, and sets follow-up tasks based on my weaknesses. Revising according to his guidance helped me improve significantly. In speaking, he’s just as responsive and adaptive. When I brought up real-life problems I encountered, he would always design useful practice activities on the spot. One of the most helpful things he told me was, “Don’t be too mechanical—be human.” That really stuck with me. I used to rely too much on fillers and fixed phrases, which made my speech sound stiff. Now I know it’s a bad habit, and I should speak more naturally. Emotionally, Carl gave me exactly what I needed. As my exam date approaches, I’ve definitely felt the pressure—but his calm encouragement and steady support have helped me build confidence. He motivates me not only to practice more but also to believe in my ability to improve. His lessons are enjoyable and relaxed. His sense of humour (yes, even the occasional dad jokes) brings a light and comfortable atmosphere. Sometimes he even teaches standing up, which shows his energy and passion for teaching—and it honestly inspires me too. Carl is warm, honest, and down-to-earth. Occasionally, one of his two Pomeranians or his lovely daughter appears on screen, which makes the class feel even more human and personal. It’s not disturbing at all, and feel free to say hi to them! Whether you're preparing for OET, other exams, or interviews; talking about book writing, life experiences, battling AI, or even exchanging fitness tips, Carl is an excellent choice. Just try one trial, and you’ll understand what I mean.

I must say it was a extrodinary experience with Carl. His teaching style is engaging and interactive, making each lesson enjoyable and highly productive.

His teaching skills are fantastic. It helps me to think outside the box. The lessons are interactive to improve my communication skills. I enjoy my lessons with Mr. Carl
