8 English lessons

Its not easy working with a family who just arrived from Kenya. Their 6year old son needed to be tutored in English to have some sort of basis of the English language before he entered school. The work they did together has made learning FUN and easier for him. The ESL teachers are so impressed with what he has learned before entering school I would strongly recommend Rhea and anyone who has the opportunity to work with her they are in good hands.

Update in January 2015:My son has been improving his writing skills tremendously since he has started to work with Pam, almost 5 months ago. For the first time, he had a A- grade in English -first time ever and he is in 8th grade. Moreover, and for me more importantly, he has developed his voice and ideas, is not dreading anymore English assignments, and is enjoying his exchange with Pam.
