Elizabeth N.

5 Vocabulary lessons

She tailors each lesson to meet the needs of the student and provides a planned and systematic approach where a large task is divided into small, attainable goals. After each session, I am motivated to go over and master the material and by the third session, I was already able to count, tell time, and speak basic phrases. I am truly impressed with how much I have already learned and it is exciting to keep your vocabulary growing.
Danielle L.

9 Vocabulary lessons

I feel that Catherine should have informed me earlier that my daughter was struggling with the vocabulary words, not to be told after she failed the exam. This should have been spoken about earlier, so I have to say that I was disappointed for the lack of communication and also for the very low grade my daughter received on the exam. The first grade was a 60 and the second was a 58. She got a 53 with Catherine K. being her tutor.
Amelie G.

12 Vocabulary lessons

She was adjusting her teaching to the needs of her student and she cared a lot about the learning of her student. She was flexible in her schedule. She brought me a lot of resources (podcast to listen, online website, homework, newspaper), which were very helpful. She taught me a lot on the ''American slang'', on idioms, and new vocabulary. She has been a very good tutor for me. Thanks.
