Humanities Teacher: 4th Grade through Adult
My teacher handed me the Iliad when I was fourteen, and I hated it. Eight years and two full tours of the Great Books later, I had learned to like the Western Canon but not how to understand or study it. I still felt like a person at a feast with a stuffy nose. Then I got hired to write Literature class plans and suddenly there was no more "try." What happened next was stranger than fiction, but that's a story I'll save for later.
For now, can you relate to my experience? Maybe they...

Effective and professional tutor
My daughter really enjoyed Christina’s tutoring session. She read through my daughter’s creative writing with her patiently, provided helpful advice and writing tips, pointed out her grammar mistakes and explained thoroughly why those are wrong. To help my daughter understand better, Christina generously shared her own writing as example. I really appreciate Christina’s effective and professional tutoring approach. My daughter cannot wait for her next class!

Knowledgeable and dependable tutor
My son, who is in 10th grade, was struggling with his English HN class at the beginning of school year. We had never had a tutor before and we were not sure who to pick as his tutor to improve on his understanding and grade on the course. We are lucky to have Christina as my son's tutor. She is not just teaching the subject, but, also tries to understand my son first and teach based on her assessment. With her knowledge and the way how to teach, makes us satisfied and, of course, my son's grade is improving every quarter. We are very happy with her tutoring.

Making the AP Test Look Easy
My son was struggling in AP World History. He understood the basics, but had trouble expressing himself in essays and long answer questions. Christina has worked with him to develop strategies for answering these types of questions. So now, not only does he understand the material he can relay that understanding effectively and in his own words.

excellent tutor
Christina is really a great tutor. My son was struggling with his history assignment and she worked with him and finished the assignment in 2 lessons. My son told me that she is really very smart and her suggestions are very good. Thanks Christina for all your help. Looking forward for future lessons.
