Nothing makes teaching more worthwhile than hearing of positive experiences from my students. I thank them for sharing.
“Finally, I had a lesson delivered by a perfect teacher who was capable of identifying my individual needs right away. I’d like to thank Emma for rising to the challenge and agreeing to become my English language teacher in spite of knowing that I had fired one of my previous tutors. Instantly, she had been able to grasp the essence of my unique learning needs and come up with a plan for only 17 hours of lessons we had been left with. Furthermore, she had instilled into my thinking some amazingly simple techniques which had enabled me to continue self studying and stretching myself further. Literally, I’d decided to take off from the upper intermediate level and never descend there anymore. Since language is much more than a sequence of words and meanings, my new tutor applied her contemporary teaching skills in such a way that English to me became the most powerful tool of building self-confidence during our sessions. Needless to say, but the latter is crucial for anyone who aspires to reach his or her top potential or tremendous career. Most importantly, Emma had reminded me that language could also be a source of endless pleasure and excitement. One should really try to “bubble and froth and slobber and cream with a joy at language” as my beloved Stephen Fry says. Emma, wish you all the best.”

“Emma was teaching our two daughters (11 and 13 years old) English for over a year. Although after school hours, Sarah and Laura actually looked forward to the lessons. Never did it become a burden. Emma always made her courses very pleasant and relevant to our girls – in line with their (different) interests and personalities, appealing to their creativity and using real events in the world as triggers to work on improving the identified areas. All this supported with PC and technology that teens love to use. Emma did not choose the easiest way for herself in doing so, but it was a very effective way for our daughters. Their English truly improved significantly. Emma is very creative, great with teenagers, switched on, cheerful. A very talented teacher who we have no problem in recommending!”
