''Patricia was very personable and professional. I was lucky to learn from her.''
''Loved my tutor, she did a great job with making sure everyone understood the lessons and clarified any confusions that she noticed we had. She positively encouraged everyone, and never reprimanded if someone forgot to the homework or anything. Always positive reinforcement and encouragement - this made the learning environment very positive for everyone and made me excited to go to class!''
''Patricia was engaging, fun, clear and continuously offered positive reinforcement.''
''Very personable, responsive, provides extra follow-up explanations after class, extremely thorough.''
''I have had teachers in the past but not tutors, so it is hard to compare since there is a difference in having a classroom teacher and one that teaches in a small group. But my experience with my tutor is much better than any past teachers. She is a dynamic tutor, and pushes you to use the language. It feels important to be prepared for her class as a result. She is very patient, and always gives lots of encouragement, despite one's own doubts. She is always well prepared and readily explains concepts, always leaving room for questions.''
