Dear Student,

I hope this message finds you well. First of all, thank you for supporting me here on CafeTalk, and for the privilege of being your English tutor! It has been such an amazing journey, sharing conversations and experiences with you for nearly ten years. It is therefore bittersweet that I am announcing my retirement, beginning September 1st, 2026. August 30th will be my last available day for lessons. It is time for a new chapter; a new adventure. My wife and I are expecting our first child in September, so they will need my complete attention going forward. If you have any questions, or would like to reach out to me, please feel free to message me here on CafeTalk! I would love to stay in touch, and will be happy to hear from you. 

All the best, 
Brian
