Really appreciate Alex for updating latest headlines each week, providing well-designed worksheet with insightful questions for reflection, and facilitating “round-table discussion” smoothly. This class does bring me closer to the world. 準備四刷這堂課～繼續長知識

The class is great!! I acquired lots of knowledge and perspectives (and some issues I never noticed before). Articles provided during the class are wide and deep, like conflict between Iran and the US. Alex is a well-prepared and learned teacher. He put forward many deep questions and guided us to think and express our thought. I'm really happy I made the choice to join Alex's class!

more political topic plz

This time our discussion went further from NIMBY (not in my backyard), automation at the workplace (textile industry), school technologies, housing justice to escalating conflict between the US and Iran (assassination of the Iranian most powerful General). Again, broaden my mind and worldview. Look at and see the world with a clear mind. A huge thank for Alex!

Alex is patient and well-prepared. Recommend for those who'd like to train the critical thinking and practice English expression.

Now I get to know why I enjoy Alex's news discussion a lot. It's because his weekly articles, questions and open mindedness allow me to connect my personal troubles with public issues and practice speaking out in English. Let me use a different way to view the world around me. Thank you so much Alex.

Topics are all very inspiring, intriguing, and related to the public. Some are even more controversial, which could help you think deeper and build your personal viewpoint thought the process of debating. Every student has plenty of time to express opinions, and Alex will help with more concept and more precise vocabularies.

Amazing, spontaneous leading style. Providing latest news articles with some questions for discussion really helped me understand and be able to apply the concepts in the news and now I think I understand them better than I could have if I’d only read about them.幽默帥哥又認真準備，準備三刷這堂課

Alex is always well prepared and willing to to share his knowledge of the topics. He also takes notes of what the class says, making us feel like our opinions matter. I strongly recommend Alex if you're still deciding which teacher to go with.

Alex is a very patient teacher, well-prepared in class, and the reading he shares is really useful. Since this is a discussion class, your classmates play a huge part in your overall learning experience as well.

Alex is always well-prepared, and is very patient to listen to the students. In the first class, we talked about the format of the class, what the topics we gonna discuss on, and you can always have your opinions of the topics. This class gave me many different perspectives to see the world.
Thank you Alex and of course other classmates. :)

Alex, incredibly brilliant and tolerant attitude as always! Ha Thanks a million for his giving me several different views to think over during analyzing news in class. Looking forward to joining his class again in near future.

Alex would give abundant materials few days before a session, encouraging students to read over them for discussion, which may give a participant an opportunity to improve the skills of scheduling and reading. He is always open-minded about topics he's familiar with, e.g. politics, economics, etc. For those who are familiar with or interested in the fileds AND wants to improve a little bit more on English speaking with the already-quite-good base, you should be seriously considering Alex's class.

This is my third times to join Alex’s class. I’ve truly learned a lot from him in each class!!!Alex is really good at stimulating us to think critically through different kinds of news.In his class, I've not only improved my English skill but also gained a lot of valuable knowledge! Alex really knows a lot, even those current affairs happening in Taiwan he knows well! Thanks ever so much, Alex!! Your class is awesome.

課程本身氣氛不錯 可以提供英文方面新的刺激 有助於維持英語語感 小小建議是松江南京場地有時候有點吵 南京復興比較適合

Alex 很棒，除了練習口說，也鼓勵大家提問，並給予我們許多不同的觀點，Alex博學多聞，上到最後覺得觀點反而是最吸引人的地方。

Alex 在課程設計上有自己的想法，第一堂課他就告訴大家說：「這些文章或許一開始有點難，但我希望大家在四堂課後，能夠學到討論國際時事的方法，未來能更有自信地以英文參與比較難的討論。」，從小上過這麼多英文課，我覺得老師對課程是否有期待、要求是很重要的。從這點來說，Alex 是位值得推薦的老師。另一方面老師私下蠻可愛的，會想一直參加下去 😄😄

認真的老師 課後還會私下再針對學生的缺點提出建議 課程內容有深度 但氣氛不會嚴肅

建議課前可以先瞭解參加者的需求與程度 相信課程會更棒; 課程本身氣氛不錯 可以提供英文方面新的刺激 有助於維持英語語感 會再找有興趣的主題參加

Alex對於經濟、政治、歷史等議題涉獵很廣, 對於我不熟悉的領域, 從中學到很多, 除了所討論的國際時事議題, 也會加入此議題對於台灣的影響, 衝擊等討論分享, 很推薦的一堂課

步調輕快，善於營造輕鬆聊天的氣氛，讓人容易加入討論。老師擅長的國際政經領域及本身的生活經驗，都能補足台灣人(好啦也許只有我..)觀點不足的問題，也讓討論內容多了一份深度。

Alex認真選擇擅長的政治經濟相關文章，帶同學思考自身社會，藉由口說練習，加強英文詞彙運用。

老師會用開放態度去鼓勵學生討論，透過討論也可以知道許多時事。另外，老師對文字的使用有自己的想法，會針對特別單字做強調
Astrid

老師上課態度親切外，也十分樂意回答學生的問題。另外，Alex也會盡量讓學生發言，並適時引導及提供正確英文用字。如果想讓用字更精進的同學，滿推薦上Alex的課！
