Cristina tutored my son Jack when he was 6 and 7 years old and I have nothing but the highest praise for the work she did with Jack in building his confidence and helping him to become a competent reader and speller. \u00a0I had noticed Jack was dropping below his expected year level for reading and spelling and was having difficulty connecting sounds to letters. Cristina provided expert tuition to him and based on her years of experience designed a programme that took him back to basics and taught him skills and methods to improve his spelling and reading ability. She provided an individualised programme in a very caring environment that gave Jack the confidence to believe he was good at English. We saw great improvements and Cristina kept us informed all the way through, providing assessments in graphical format and reports so that we could measure his progress. I will always be thankful to Cristina as I now have an 11 year old son who loves reading and is at the moment tearing his way through the Skulduggery Pleasant series of books. If you are looking for tuition for your child from a caring professional then I thoroughly recommend Cristina.<\/i><\/p>\n

Cristina\u00a0tutored my daughter Chelsea during\u00a0 the summer when Chelsea was going into 2nd grade.\u00a0 My daughter had a rough year during 1st grade to the point where the teacher wanted to hold her back. Chelsea was not at the reading or math level to move on to 2nd grade.\u00a0 As a mother I was left with the hard decision of taking the teacher’s advice or take a chance and hope that Chelsea would catch up when she got to 2nd grade. I knew my daughter and her capabilities and I knew she had it in her and so I made the decision to let her move her on.\u00a0 One day I was talking to Cristina\u00a0and I mentioned Chelsea\u2019s struggles and immediately Cristina offered to tutor her for the entire summer and I agreed. It would have been the best decision I ever made because ever since then Chelsea has been on the honor roll every time and she absolutely loves school! Cristina\u00a0has a way of teaching that keeps kids engaged and she knows how to draw them out to see what\u2019s preventing them from learning.\u00a0 I will forever be thankful to Cristina\u00a0for helping Chelsea be the student she is today. Chelsea is going into 9th grade this fall and when we talk about great teachers and mentors, Cristina\u00a0is always at the top of the list! Thank you\u00a0Cristina<\/p>\n
