What My Students Say
Real results from real people
"I needed IELTS 7.0 for my graduate school application to Imperial College London. Alex's structured approach and weekly mock tests helped me jump from 6.0 to 7.5 in just 3 months. His feedback on my writing was incredibly detailed - he didn't just mark errors, he explained WHY they were wrong and how to think like a native speaker. I got accepted to Imperial with a scholarship! "

Jenny C.
TSMC Engineer @ TSMC
"I was interviewing for PM roles at Google and Meta. Alex's mock interviews were BRUTAL (in a good way) - he pushed me way harder than the actual interviewers did. We practiced 50+ behavioral questions using the STAR method, and he helped me craft stories that highlighted my impact at MediaTek. I got offers from both companies and negotiated a 40% salary increase! "
โ Landed Google Cloud PM role with 40% salary increase

Product Manager @ MediaTek โ Google
"As a marketing director, I needed to present quarterly results to our US headquarters. My English was "okay" but not confident. Alex taught me presentation frameworks, helped me reduce my accent in key words, and we rehearsed my Q&A responses. After 8 lessons, my CEO told me it was the best presentation he'd ever seen from Taiwan team! "
โ CEO praised best presentation from Taiwan team

"I needed help with my PhD application essays and interview prep for MIT. Alex edited all 5 of my statements of purpose - his feedback transformed my writing from "academic robot" to "compelling storyteller." He also coached me for my Zoom interviews with professors. I got into MIT, Stanford, and Berkeley. Chose MIT! "
โ Admitted to MIT, Stanford, Berkeley PhD programs

"I was switching from teaching to tech recruiting and needed to sound more professional in English. Alex helped me learn HR vocabulary, practice screening calls, and write better job descriptions. Within 2 months, I landed a recruiter role at ASUS where I now interview foreign engineers. His training gave me the confidence I needed! "

"I was pitching my AI startup to US investors and needed to perfect my pitch deck and delivery. Alex helped me simplify my technical jargon, structure my story better, and practice handling tough questions. After 6 sessions, I raised $2M seed funding from a Silicon Valley VC! Worth every dollar. "
