Ace lives up to his name! He helped out my two boys get into UCC. He helped them improve, not only their writing skills, but most importantly, with their confidence and studying habits. I wish we could keep him as their teacher forever!

I've always found it difficult to match with an English teacher until I bumped into Ace during his CELTA training. I knew I had to continue learning from him, so when he offered his educational service, I didn't think twice about it! I highly recommend him. You'll gain not just an amazing teacher, but also a friend!
