Communication is an essential aspect of the learning process. To know both students' expectations and their approaches to learning are fundamental to support them for getting their goal. The first thing I do as a tutor is to talk with my students what aspects they want to improve or learn more about. Secondly, it is important to find out her/his...

Each client is unique and I carefully tailor my approach accordingly.

I always develop a fun educational atmosphere where the student feels confident, curious and eager to...
“I talk to students to find out exactly which areas they are having most difficulty with and then tailor sessions to meet their requirements. I explain grammar points clearly and concisely to ensure that students have a thorough understanding of the subject matter.”...
Every student’s needs are different, and my tuition reflects that. The key thing in all cases is to have a dialogue with the student, both in order to pinpoint the focus of the teaching as we begin and as a way to expand the students’ ideas and interest in the subject. I was tutored myself as a teenager and the best...
