We have tried several English tutors in the past: local, remote, friend recommendation, web recommendation. My child was never impressed or motivated. I don’t know what magic Meerag plays in his first two lessons, she finally said he is great and would expect his class. Couldn’t be happier.

Specifically, I have an issue with abusing formal English expressions in places where informal ones should be used. So Laurette detects and logs a misuse letting me finish the sentence and later explains what the issue is and supporting her point with logged error, correct usage, and similar examples.
