Tamar knows when to slow down if her stud

It was a pleasure seeing how fast my daughter improved her English and we both appreciated meeting Tamar, who is a great person :)"

Review by G. Elaqad

"Mrs. Ghada E. is a well oriented and enthusiastic teacher. She gives clear verbal and written instructions to her students during class. Mrs. Ghada is v

ery organized and knowledgeable in her subject area. She is an enthusiastic, very patient and humorous sometimes. Mrs. Ghada is a self motivated and a fast learner when it comes to learning new teaching strategies. She encourages me to go the extra step in learning by sending me her written feed back notes on my submitted assignments. I liked that she always response quickly to my email questions. Mrs. Elfarra can adjusts her teaching techniques to help students with different learning styles succeed in her class by varying her assignments and assessment methods like short written or spelling quiz...etc.. She is kind and understanding teacher and capable of handling difficult situations. Mrs. Ghada is a very helpful and kind teacher, I am very please to take her class."

My son enjoyed his first lesson with Matthew. Matthew related spelling to music (drums) which made spelling more interesting to my son. He's looking forward to his next session. Thank you, Matthew!

I really enjoyed my lesson with Michelle. She is a great tutor with her special skill. The only reason I did not give her a 5 starts at this time is because I want to finish more sessions to truly give her a 5 star from bottom of my heart. I would love to continue my journey with her and I am faithful I will improve quickly with her help.

Thank you so much for your help it was a good experience ❤️

Maryna is very good at integrating conversation with subtle changes to start working on different cases, but in such a way that it is overwhelming or even obvious that she is doing so. She is great at teaching Russian and is very passionate about helping others achieve their linguistic goals. I've enjoyed working with her and have gained a lot of insight to the structure of the Russian Language as well as gained confidence with my speaking and writing abilities. Her approach to incidental teaching provides a very natural learning environment that I think is critical for people who are finding it daunting to learn such a beautiful but complicated language. :) I highly recommend her!
