Hi Keith, I am so happy that I’ve studied for speaking test with you! I’ve got 7.5 from speaking I couldn’t speak very well but your videos helped me sooo much. I can’t thank you enough. You are amazing teacher, even listening to your voice is a big pleasure. Thank you again. Please keep helping for students. May God Bless you 🌿

As a non-native English teacher and a life long English language learner; I highly benefit from your videos. I can’t thank you enough.

[@koman7609]

Before watching this video, I wasn't confident to describe my feelings in various occasions. It really got on my nerves in the exams and drove me up the wall while doing my preparation. I couldn't wait to watch more of your videos as I'm sure they can really blow me away. When I was watching this video, I'm tickled pink and felt like it was music to my ears. Watching Keith's videos is just what the doctor ordered. I would be eternally grateful if I could achieve band 9 some days in the future. Hopefully at the end of the day, I am able to unwind a bit and focus back on my work that I am fed up with.

[@rakshyakhadka7518]

I am at a loss for words for your mindful insights on the idiomatic usage of words. It is really appreciative of you to post such wonderful videos and I am eternally grateful to you!
