This is one of the number one questions I hear, and the answer is, “It depends.” It depends on:
What you want to learn
How often you study
How hard you study
How good your English is now
What kind of learner you are (not everybody learns at the same speed)
…and many other things.
On average, most students start to feel some progress within 2-3 months; they notice they can do things they couldn’t do before. However, everybody is different, and I don’t want to make promises I can’t keep. I suggest you focus on goals, rather than how long it will take. If you need to improve your spoken English, then I will help you to do that. It might take more time; it might take less time; the important thing is that you reach your goal.

Again, the answer is, “It depends.”
If you want to study something simple, or just practice something which you already know a lot about, one class a week could be enough.
If you want to improve your general English skills and study new topics, 2-3 hours per week is a good amount.
If you want to make the fastest possible progress, then 4-5 hours a week will help you to learn and make progress quickly.
You should also make time for self-study and review between lessons. For every hour you study with me, try to spend at least an hour studying by yourself. This will help you to remember what you have learned and use it correctly.

He's a very good teacher. I always take conversation classes with him, and we always talk about many subjects that are interesting and relevant in today's society. He knows a lot about culture, so you'll never be bored during class. Lastly, he has very good taste in music. If you ask him, he'll recommend the best songs :)."
