"Angelina, thank you so much for helping my daughter through grade 9. You are a wonderful teacher and she has gained tremendously from your tutelage." Natalie K.

"Angelina has been tutoring my children for 6 years. In that time she has become like one of our family. She has been so invested in our children's academic improvement and emotional well-being. Angelina is patient, methodical and caring with our very energetic children. She responds to different requests with ease ('can you help * to study for her French test for tomorrow?'). She is confident across all subject areas and has especially helped our girls with their reading and writing skills. My children and I highly recommend Angelina. Amanda S.

"Angelina is so helpful for our son. Her patient, encouraging style helps him stay focused during their time together. Angelina’s ability to incorporate games into her approach makes spending additional time with a tutor, even after a long day at school, a welcome part of the week for our son. We definitely recommend Angelina for anyone looking for additional attention for their child. Angelina is also a great option for anyone struggling with a child who doesn’t want to do their homework. Our son willingly and happily worked together with Angelina on his weekly homework assignment." Maya F.

"Angelina came to us 2 years ago via a friend's glowing recommendation of her son's tutor. We were looking for someone who could creatively engage our son while at the same time help him process and absorb the material. Angelina exceeded our expectations. She focused on our son's strengths as well as his vulnerabilities and was able to gear the work to attend to both. She patiently broke down concepts that our son struggled with and found ways to mitigate his frustration with incentives to keep trying. We feel lucky to have found Angelina and highly recommend her to others looking for individualized learning support for their kids." Michelle and Ilan

"When we first contacted Angelina about helping our son with his Grade 9 academic French, he was struggling desperately to understand what was going on in class. He had basically given up, had zero confidence in his abilities, and was completely stressed every time he had an assignment or test. Both of us are fluent in French and tried to help, but as we all know, parents often end up just as frustrated as their kids! Enter Angelina, with her calm and patient demeanour. Within one short month, our son could write and speak simple sentences; conjugate verbs; remember vocabulary; and complete his homework. More importantly, he started to believe he could actually do it. Frankly we were all amazed at his progress. He ended up with a fantastic mark. Thank you Angelina." Pam K.

"With two lessons per week, I have seen my son's confidence and abilities in French grow. Angelina's approach to teaching kids French is different from the French Immersion program, but highly complementary. It has worked for my son. He is no longer lost in class. Angelina approaches her students with patience, openness, respect and praise where achievement, small or large, has been made. She has also been a great advocate for me as I discuss my son's progress and abilities in French with his teachers. I highly recommend her tutorial services." Marcy B.

"Angelina has been tutoring my eight year old in reading and writing (English) for almost two years and we are very pleased with his progress. We have definitely seen an improvement in his skills. She is delightful, supportive and extremely patient. She uses creative examples and techniques that make learning enjoyable and fun. " Ying F.

"Angelina has been working with my 2 girls for the past 3 years and if it wasn't for her I 'm not sure how we all would have survived Extended French! But, with Angelina's tutoring not only have we survived, but the girls have done amazing at school and their confidence has grown. Angelina's patience, kindness, flexibility, and knowledge make it very easy to recommend her to anyone (as long as she still has time for us!)" Suzanne V.

"Angelina is a tutor who genuinely cares about her students. She is very patient, and excellent at keeping her students on task. She takes the time to get to know each child, in order to determine what each student's strengths and weaknesses are. I highly recommend Angelina, and her tutoring services. She really is the best!"

"Angelina is a warm and caring teacher who takes personal interest in the welfare of her students. She constantly looks for creative ways to motivate and fosters relationships of trust and openness that allow her to then be an effective educator. Her students are both comfortable and challenged as she works with them to set and achieve their goals.
