Knowledgeable, patient and flexible
My session with Christine began with a free one hour consultation which was extremely beneficial. I reached out hoping for a quick tutorial on Quickbooks and quickly realized the importance of setting the company file up correctly and everything that needed to be done before just merely sending an invoice to a client. Christine is very knowledgeable and has an expert level of understanding of Quickbooks. I had never before used Quickbooks and needed to set up a new company, Christine could've easily showed me a few shortcuts which would've led to issues down the road but she instead quickly laid out a plan during our consultation to ensure that I received the training needed in order to use Quickbooks to its full potential. She knew all the questions to ask and help to alleviate the fear of: "I do not know what I do not know." During the training she was patient and slowed down when needed and sped up when I caught on to ensure the best use of time. It was very clear that she had experience teaching and planned out her lesson and was able to adjust the pace when necessary. I highly recommend Christine to users of all levels; she knows the nuances of the program and can get a beginner going and teach even the most experienced user new tricks.

Knowledgeable about QuickBooks Desktop, but did not appear to be as knowledgeable about QuickBooks Online
Christine knows a lot about QuickBooks Desktop, but didn't seem to know too much about QuickBooks Online, the version I’m using. She was constantly surprised by differences between QBO and QBD. She doesn’t seem to know the accounting equation, or which accounts are debit and which credit. To me this is like a racing car driver knowing nothing about engines. Technically not necessary to know, but one would really expect it. Christine often went on tangents that, to me, didn’t seem to further my goal of learning QuickBooks and setting up my accounting system. For example, we started with QuickBooks Desktop, and later switched to QuickBooks Online. Even though I was no longer using QuickBooks Desktop, it would create an error message when I started my computer. Christine recommended removing QuickBooks desktop, which I did, and it solved the problem. But then, and here’s where the tangent comes in, she insisted on calling Intuit, and discussing the (now non-existent) problem with them. I insisted that we don’t call them. Christine tried to call them a number of times after that, even though the problem was no longer occurring, and I had to dissuade her each time. Christine seemed unnecessarily critical at times during our classes. For example, I once wrote a message to my customers in a memo field. "HAPPY DRIVING !!" Christine informed me there shouldn't be a space before the first exclamation mark. I need someone with knowledge of accounting, not punctuation. Christine, while controlling my computer remotely, ended up in private areas of my computer, again and again. I kept reprimanding her, asking her to *please* confine herself to the QuickBooks screen, but somehow we ended up in my favorites list, my file listings, my email. A picture of me playing the saxophone suddenly popped up. This was extremely irritating to me.

Experienced tutor
Christine helped with what I had asked of her whilst broadening my knowledge on the general concept of quickbooks and accounting. She was extremely attentive and continued to ask how he session was going if the pace she wa smoking at was okay for me.
Marisa, 1 lesson with ChristineTutor responded:Thank you, Marisa! I'm not sure if you meant the pace I "was moving" at, or that the pace was "smoking," but either way I'm glad you liked it! You were an excellent student, as well! I appreciate when someone is truly trying to learn, and I try to reward the effort! Congratulations on your progress! I look forward to hearing how things go!
Christine is a knowledgeable and patient online tutor
Christine is great. I am gaining the knowledge I will need to comfortably set up and use QuickBooks for our company. I started with no background in accounting or QB. I definitely recommend Christine no matter what your previous level is with QB.
Brenda, 10 lessons with ChristineTutor responded:Thank you, Brenda, for the recommendation! It's been exciting to be part of your journey and to see you make such solid and extensive progress in learning both accounting and QuickBooks! Great work! I look forward to us completing the final stages of your project!
Knowledgeable and patient. It's obvious she loves teaching.
Christine immediately understood what I asked to learn and then kept me focused on the important tasks to get me there. I am very much looking forward to our next lesson.

A Professional Educator
So far, helped put the realities of the software into a meaningful perspective for my application. She knows her subject and how to communicate it. She seems to have the "gift"/problem solving skills, empathy.

Teaching me exactly what I needed to know
Christine is teaching me how to set up and run my Quickbooks. If you want to make efficient use of your learning time Christine is the way to go. I'm learning capabilities in Quickbooks that you wouldn't dream were there from studying books and watching youtube videos
Duncan, 7 lessons with ChristineTutor responded:Thank you for the great review, Duncan! I'm glad to hear you're learning a lot more out of your time with me compared to learning from QuickBooks books and videos. Also glad we can focus on only what you need so you can save time that way, too!
