Tutor you can trust. As an education consultant and experienced EFL teacher myself, I introduced Chantelle to a mother of an 11-year-old girl from a country where English is taught as a foreign language. For the first a few lessons, I received Chantelle's feedback on her lessons with the girl and was impressed with her passion for teaching combined with professionalism represented by her knowledge of English language, the materials used and on-line platform **E-mail Address Removed**Classroom to name a few. She was so experienced that she easily found out the child's specific needs in terms of her English language skills and knowledgeable that which materials she can use to resolve those issues. It also implied what her top priority is when she suggested that the original 1-hour lesson be split into 2 half hour lessons to give her more time to digest or practice what is being taught. Most of all, according to the child's mother, the child is enjoying the lessons with Chantelle, which I believe is more important than anthing else! Finally, from parents' point of view, you will be made aware of what is taught during sessions, if there are homework or practice that needs to be done **E-mail Address Removed**Classroom, where you can also communicate with her. I can confirm very comfortably that Chantelle would be one of my first choices for my provisional clients looking for a tutor for their children.
Thank you, Jae Roc! It is a wonderful opportunity for me to get to know a child from a different country, and helping her gain confidence in her speech and articulation. I am delighted my approach is working for her.
From Leslie
She as been very good and helpful and also given things to take home which is helpful. Chantelle is also a very nice person
Thank you! I look forward very much to seeing progress each week.
From William
My son is in year 8 and has been struggling in English lessons at school with his handwriting and creative writing. He also has difficulty in other subjects which require longer pieces of writing. He finds it difficult to express himself and as a result has sometimes lost focus.
After just 5 weeks with Chantelle his handwriting has improved, he seem less stressed at the thought of writing and has learnt how to break his work down into smaller chunks and how to picture (literally) what he is writing about.
Chantelle has been very patient, understanding and has made my son see that he "can" do it. I would highly recommend Chantelle to anyone. Louise
Thank you very much for your feedback, Louise. It has given me much satisfaction to see your son's progress. I have enjoyed working with him and have confidence he will now excel in his creative writing, given his natural intelligence and positive attitude. Thank you to you both.
From Cristiana
I really like Chantelle, she is approachable and for the last couple of weeks I developed my English quite well.
Thank you, Cristiana. It is a delight to work with you. Your determination will help us achieve your desired goals in no time.
From Carol-Ann
Chantelle provided excellent educational help and support for our 10 year old son over the Summer. She has a gentle professional manner conducive to learning and I would definitely recommend her.
It is always a reciprocal effect - Finlay had been stunning in both attitude, personality and motivation and he was always such a pleasure to work with. As a tutor I have also learnt a lot with and from Finlay. Thank you for the opportunity given. Wishing him all the very best for his future endeavours and I certainly hope our paths will cross again.
From Tina
I am more than happy to recommend Chantelle as a tutor. Chantelle shows a genuine interest in encouraging and bringing the best out of my son with the time she spends with him. She has an array of material at hand to stretch his imagination and encourage creative thought processes which in turn enable him to appreciate reading and writing is more than just something required of him in the education system. A sufficient amount of time has not yet passed to be able to see how much my son has progressed but I have no doubt his reading skills and creativity are improving, which will also enhance his confidence.
Thank you Tina for the feedback. It is a team effort and it is most satisfying when we are able to move the goal post for Brandon. We will continue to celebrate successes, and learn from Brandon how to unlock his creativity and imagination. [After 2.5 months, tutee's reading level went up by two levels. updated July 2010]
