6 English lessons

Today was our first lesson with Melissa. I found her to be very patient, prepared and knowledgeable in the subject matter. Our son can be reserved and uninterested in English and I was a bit worried that he would not participate. Melissa was very patient, and I felt she was able to draw him in and keep him engaged. She really broke it down in simple form and kept it simple and uncomplicated, I think she will be a great fit.

After looking for a while, we decided to hire Ping. First point I need to make is that if you make your decision about hiring Ping because of her English, it will be a major mistake on your part. Ping is an excellent teacher who comes very well prepared for every session and works hards from the start to finish of each session. She is very capable of getting the student to understand and apply the information that is being taught.

Our son is a little shy. Mrs. Patricia G. spent her very precious time to prepare interview rehearsal for him, and did it every time during her coaching. English is his second language. Mrs. Patricia G. helped him greatly improve his writing. He is very interested in singing. Mrs. Patricia G. provided him information about the chorus at Harvard. We are eternally grateful to Mrs. Patricia G.!
