Julie made me feel very comfortable . She is very kind and lovely as well as understandable. Julie taught me Everyday phrases and grammar which helped my vocabulary. When it came to the GESE test (these tests are approved for applications to UKVI for visas, British Citizenship) she was a big part as she helped me build a conversation and feel confident in order to pass the test. I passed thanks to her. I hope you continue helping many more people! ️

Julie taught me English when I was in Aberdeen. I was not confident in English. She waited for me with patience. She was energetic and passionate teacher. Her classes gave me pleasure and motivation for English. If you have basic level English, it's okay. She gave me a class suited to my English level. If I had stayed in Aberdeen, I would have continued to take Julie's class. I hope to take your class again in Aberdeen.

Alpha Language Centre truly changed my life.
My biggest win from the Alpha language Centre was understanding how to develop my English level that is custom tailored for me and that allows me to work in local community and reach the people who need my help. I’m proud of myself for never giving up learning English.

I had the luck to know Julie when I wanted to resume my English studies. I always struggled when I tried it and she helped me. She made my first classes easier with her patience and always with a smile. She adapted her speed and her rhythm to our necessities and helped us improve very fast. She created an excellent group atmosphere and, many years later, we are still in touch.

If you are searching for an English course that will not only teach grammar, vocabulary with writing/speaking practices but also understand the culture of the language, maintain motivation, enthusiasm, self-courage and pleasure with the belief that you can do it, you are in the right place.
I am grateful to Julie for her efforts and I highly recommend Julie to everyone who wants to learn English and build (or continue) their career with English."

Julie has my highest recommendation. She has worked with foreign people for years and has great understanding of people's needs. Julie impressed me with her charismatic nature, passion for global cultures and adventurous spirit. I'm confident that she would make a huge improvement in the level of your English.
I studied with Julie for around 9 months. She gives me the confidence to use grammar accurately and, believe me, I wasn't good at this at all!

Thanks to Julie, I've started to enjoy learning English. She gives practical lessons - in other words, you can use what you learn in your daily life. She always focuses on your pronunciation and she always encourages you. I quickly realised that it is her vocation to be a teacher.

Julie is exceptionally great as an EFL teacher and I feel I've benefited greatly and been given a good grounding in the language. Not only that, I feel my understanding of the English language has also improved as a result of taking these lessons. She was very encouraging, cheerful and thorough in her teaching. This was combined with a good lesson structure and carefully chosen, excellent material. I have no hesitation in recommending her as an English language teacher.

Julie was my teacher in 2011, my early days in Aberdeen. She literally made me speak out words and sentences. I am now undertaking my Ph.D. She is enthusiastic, responsible, talented in both language and teaching and, of course, a nice person. She is AMAZING!

I’m so pleased that I found Alpha Language Centre. Sylvia has helped me to improve my English and I really enjoy her lessons. The atmosphere is so friendly, a range of subjects is discussed, and time passes really quickly.Thank you so much for building my confidence to speak in public. While I no longer live in Aberdeen, I’m continuing with my classes from London (on Zoom) and they are just as good.

Having English classes with Sylvia has been an extraordinary experience. She is very committed to her teaching, dedicated at every point.
Sylvia also is a good administrator of the class time and makes herself understood easily during the lessons. She is also friendly, kind and always smiling.
It has helped me a lot and I have made significant progress. Sylvia is 100% recommended if you want to learn or improve your English.

I strongly recommend Sylvia for teaching Business English lessons. This is the best way to acquire specific terminology for working environments and to develop your communication skills in general for interviews, meetings, presentations, negotiations, etc. Her classes are a very effective way to greatly enhance your Business English skills.
Sylvia cannot be more helpful and her support has also assisted me to integrate in a new city and culture for which I am very grateful".
