Speech and Language Therapist and ESL educator

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan besides monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant.

I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.

she is a great tutor! — I have been working with Sherry since April. We meet each other at a cafe and library. She always motivates me and makes me get confidence with English.
