Why Me?
What makes you the best person for your job?
experienced and youthful simultaneously. Wide ranging interested and studies, professional and punctual, flexible. Suitable for all ranges of need.

What is your best project so far? Why?
I was assigned to an unhappy student and created a personal and professional rapport in very quickly. We identified her needs and integrated recently acquired skills. She soared in confidence and learned more rapidly. We meshed her need to learn with my need to impart allowing me to locate the best material and mode of learning. She had been about to leave the school, when instead she asked that we continue together for the following 2 weeks. Her confidence flowered allowing her to partake profitably in extracurricular activities.


What do your students / customers say about you?
Engaging, imaginative, well-informed, listened to my needs and found what was needed. I NEVER thought I would be able to speak English. Well organized, ready to answer any question I had. Let me use my abilities at the highest level. Fantastic
