Jack helped us to review articles and notes for a special edition of the International Hydrographic Review. His contribution enhanced the clarity of the publication and, according to my discussion with many delegates, the publication was very well received.

I have trained with Jack on a one to one basis and today my confidence in speaking English with acquaintances, in front of an audience and to strangers has risen dramatically.
Anna Jokela
What I have personally developed in working with Jack is my sureness and self-confidence to use English with native and non-native speakers alike.
