JunKyun from Korea, who works for Samsung, says:  

ChoiThank you for your kind and good English teaching. I think that I get the method of learning English through your guidance. The best way of learning English is to understand the principle and to practice it continuously.

I'll never forget my good experience of six months of English life, people I've met, the beautiful English scenes and Helen's good English Class.  

Helen, you're a very nice teacher. I think I'll miss you, Helen, in Korea.

헬렌 선생님의 영어수업에 감사의 인사드립니다.

 

헬렌 선생님 정말 친절하면서 재밌는 영어수업 진행해 주셔서 고맙습니다.

비록 영어를 완전하게 배우기에는 부족한 수업기간이었지만, 나름대로 영어를 배우는데 있어서

가장 좋은 방법은 어떤 것인가에 대해 많은 것을 느꼈습니다.

솔직히 지금 제가 영어를 능숙하게 말하기에는 많이 부족합니다.

그러나 저는 헬렌 선생님 수업을 통해 영어를 어떻게 배워야 하는지에 대한 방법을 얻었다고 생각합니다.

영어를 배우는 가장 훌륭한 방법은 문장의 원리를 이해하고 그리고 끊임 없이 연습해야 합니다.

가장 기본적인 학습법이지만 그것을 느꼈다는 점에서 저는 가장 큰 수확이라고 생각합니다.

그러나 아직 저는 앞으로 영어를 사용하고 익히는데 있어서 많은 어려움이 있을 것이라 생각합니다.

왜냐하면 첫째 아직 나의 기본적인 영어실력은 턱없이 부족하여 영어 익히는데 걸림돌이 될 것입니다.

두번째 나에게 영어를 사용하는 친구가 없습니다.

이것은 또한 그만큼 내가 영어를 연습할 수 있는 기회가 없게 될 것입니다.

세번째 나는 사람들과 영어로 말하는데 두려움이 있습니다.

나는 항상 사람들이 말하는 것을 못 알아 들을까봐 두려웠습니다.

이것은 나에게 상당히 안 좋은 기억이었습니다.

위의 모든 것들은 내가 한국에 돌아가면 반드시 극복해야 할 숙제입니다.

 

영국에서의 6개월의 환상적인 경험은 저는 절대로 잊을 수 없을 것입니다.

내가 만났던 사람들 내가 보았던 아름다운 영국의 풍경들

그리고 헬렌 선생님의 영어 수업....

헬렌 선생님, 당신은 정말 친절하고 멋진 선생님입니다.

한국가면 헬렌 선생님과 같이 했던 시간이 너무나 그리울 것입니다.

 

고맙습니다.

Katharina from Munich, an interior designer, says:

KatharinaWhen my husband and I moved to England two years ago, I could not speak any English.

Since I have neither a talent for languages nor do I find it is easy to study anew at 58, I had constantly sidestepped learning the language.

After nearly a year in England I realized that I could no longer ignore it. Helen’s professional knowledge coupled with her easy going humour ensured that within nine months, I had learnt enough English to be able to manage on my own in England. Her lessons are so individually attuned to my personal needs that it is actually a lot of fun to learn English in this way. Thank you Helen, you are a great teacher and a wonderful person.

Als ich gemeinsam mit meinem Mann vor zwei Jahren nach England zog, konnte ich kein Wort Englisch. Da ich weder sprachbegabt bin, noch mir mit 58 Jahren das Studieren sonderlich leicht fällt, habe ich es fortwährend vermieden diese Sprache zu lernen. Nach fast einem Jahr in England musste ich dann doch einsehen, dass es an der Zeit war mich mit der Landessprache zu befassen. Helen hat es mit Witz und Humor, aber vor allem mit Ihrem professionellen Fachwissen geschafft, mir binnen neun Monaten ausreichend Englischkenntnisse zu vermitteln um ohne fremde Hilfe zu recht zu kommen. Ihr individuell auf meine Bedürfnisse abgestimmter Unterricht hat bewirkt, dass mir Englisch lernen nun eine Menge Spaß bereitet. Danke Helen, Du bist eine großartige Lehrerin und ein wunderbarer Mensch.

 

Alex from Moscow, Russia, a Toyota Manager, says:  

AlexI looked for an English teacher, because my level of English was sufficient to communicate with non-English speaking colleagues and friends, but not good enough for native English speakers. Minor nuances and frequently used phrases, as well as errors that had accumulated for many years, demanded regular and painstaking work.

Almost year of regular classes with Helen seriously helped me to raise my level of English. I simply asked Helen elaborate a particular aspect, and she would prepare a lesson or several lessons with examples and exercises. Such a flexible approach allowed me to close the knowledge gaps and did not waste my time on unnecessary subjects. I would like to thank Helen for the time spent with me and I can happily recommend her highly individual lessons to anyone who wants to live and work in the UK.

Я искал преподавателя английского, потому что тот уровень , который был
более чем достаточный для общения с неанглоязычными коллегами и друзьями,
оказался совершенно не достаточен для полноценной работы в
UK. Мелкие
нюансы и часто употребляемые фразы, а также ошибки, которые накопились в
голове за много лет  требовали регулярной и кропотливой работы. Почти год
регулярных занятий с Хелен серьезно помогли мне поднять уровень
английского.  Я просто просил Хелен проработать ту или иную тему и она
подготавливала урок или несколько уроков с  примерами и упражнениями. Такой
гибкий подход позволил мне закрыть индивидуальные пробелы и не тратить
время на прохождение всего подряд.
Я бы хотел поблагодарить Хелен за потраченное со мной время и могу смело
рекомендовать ее индивидуальные занятия для всех, кому предстоит жить и
работать в
UK.

С уважением,
Ветров Александр

 

Makoto from Japan, a student, says:  

MakotoI enjoyed Helen’s lessons very much, because she taught me proper British English and not American English, like they do in Japan.

Her lessons are fun, because she’s not strict and she makes you want to do your best. She is generous, kind, helpful and patient. Thank you very much for teaching me.

ヘレン先生のレッスンは僕がそれまで日本で触れていたアメリカ英語ではなく正統派英国英語を徹底して指導してもらえたのでとても満足でした。彼女のレッスンは厳格に厳しく!と言った感じでは無く僕の中でのベストを常に忍耐強く支え優しく丁寧に指導してくれました。ヘレン、ここまで導いてくれて有り難う。

DenisaDenisa from Slovakia says:

I’ve been genuinely lucky having lessons with the best teacher in the world!

Helen is the kind of teacher who completely understands students’ needs.

She makes it interesting and fun, always gives me the right direction of how to achieve my goals, makes me think more deeply and gives me a lot of courage. Her passion for teaching is undeniable.

‘Thank you for being patient and always in a good mood!’

Mat lekcie anglictiny s najlepsou lektorkou na svete bolo pre mna skutocnym stastim. Helen je typ ucitelky, ktora uplne rozumie potrebam studentov.

Jej hodiny su zaujimave a zabavne, stale ma vedie tym spravnym smerom na dosiahnutie mojich cielov, prehlbuje moje myslienky a dodava mi povzbudenie. Je zaluba v uceni je nepopieratelna! "Dakujem za vasu trpezlivost a stale dobru naladu."

 

 

Grazyna, from Krakow in Poland, a healthcare professional, says:

GrazynaIt is never too late for learning! This is what a mature woman over fifty years old, who decided to emigrate a couple of years back, is telling you. I found a job in London, I am a carer in a nursing home. I like my job and I really wish I could speak with my patients and colleagues more fluently.

When I first came to Great Britain my knowledge of the English language was merely basic. I felt very uncomfortable when I was misunderstood by clerks at the post office or a bank. I even visited the doctor with an interpreter.

Then my boss suggested that I start attending Helen’s English lessons. She’s been teaching me for over a year and my progress has been noticed by everybody. Now I see to my issues by myself; I understand everything and I am understood!

Helen is a very nice person. She puts a lot of heart in her work. She is patient and effective. You don’t want to look at the watch during her classes, as they are very interesting and based on the learner’s level. What is also very important, thanks to her kindness, Helen helps the foreign learner to feel at home on the Isles, by explaining the customs and habits of this multicultural country. I heartily recommend attending Helen’s English classes to everybody who doesn’t want to feel second-class citizens due to their poor knowledge of English.

Na nauke nigdy nie jest za pózno! To mówi wam dojrzala kobieta po piedziesiatce, która zdecydowala sie na emigracje 2 lata temu. Podjelam prace w Londynie jestem opiekunka w domu opieki dla starszych ludzi. Lubie swoja prace i bardzo ubolewalam,ze nie moge swobodnie rozmawiac z z moimi podopiecznymi oraz kolezankami i kolegami z pracy. Gdy przyjechalam do Anglii moja znajomosc jezyka byla zaledwie podstawowa.Czulam sie bardzo niekomfortowo, gdy nie rozumialy mnie pracownice banku, urzedniczki na poczcie... A do lekarza chodzilam z tlumaczem. Wtedy moja szefowa zaproponowala mi, abym uczeszczala na lekcje angielskiego do klasy Helen. Uczy mnie ponad rok i wszyscy zauwazyli wyrazny postep w mojej znajomosci angielskiego. Teraz sama zalatwiam sobie swoje sprawy: Rozumiem co do mnie mówia i jestem rozumiana!

Helen jest bardzo sympatyczna osoba. Wiele pracy i serca wklada w nauke. Jest cierpliwa i skuteczna. Na jej lekcjach nie patrzysz na zegarek, bo sa ciekawe i dopasowane do poziomu ucznia. Co tez jest wazne, pomaga swoja zyczliwoscia w <zadomowieniu> sie na Wyspach, Tlumaczac zwyczaje i specyfike zycia w tym wielokulturowym panstwie. Wszystkim tym, którym z powodu nieznajomosci angielskiego,  nie chca czuc sie w Królestwie obywatelami drugiej kategorii, serdecznie polecam angielski z Helen.

Julianna Solf from Hungary (10 years in Germany, 2 years in UK) says:

JulianaThis is the second time I’ve lived in a foreign country, first in Germany and now the UK. Before I came to Helen, I hadn’t learned any English. I was very nervous about meeting English people, because I couldn’t understand or speak with anybody, including Helen. The lessons with Helen took my fear away.

Even though I still couldn’t speak much English after a few lessons, I was able to understand simple conversations. I could even talk to my neighbours and ask for certain things in a shop. I am still not fluent, but now I just talk to people after I realised that nobody cares if my English isn’t perfect. Helen is a very friendly person and fun to learn with. I have made a new friend.

Ez már a második alkalom, hogy egy idegen országban élek, először Németországban és most Angliában. Mielőtt Helenhez kerültem soha nem tanultam Angolul. Nagyon bizonytalan voltam ha Angol emberekkel találkoztam, hiszen nem értettem őket és nem tudtam velük beszélni, beleértve Helent is. Az órák Helennel elvették a félelmemet.

Akkor is ha pár óra után még nem beszéltem sokat Angolul, mégis meg tudtam érteni egy beszélgetést. A szomszédaimmal is tudtam beszélni, és az üzletekben bizonyos dolgok után kérdezni. Még most sem beszélek folyékonyan, mégis tudok beszélni az emberekkel, miután rájöttem, hogy senkinek sem fontos hogy az Angolom nem tökéletes. Helen egy nagyon barátságos és kedves személy, akivel öröm tanulni. Az ő személyében egy új barátra leltem.
