π ° Straight A's in English (Grades 7-11)
"Derek of Derek's Professional English Tutoring has been helping my son for five years. Derek has been tutoring him when we lived in Coquitlam, and now we live in Port Coquitlam.
Β He's very patient, skilled, and responsible. Through Derek's one-on-one lessons on Zoom, using Google Docs to make learning easier, my son has gotten A's in English from grades 7 to 11. He's going to grade 12 now.
Β Derek is affordable and really committed to helping students improve their writing, grammar, and confidence. I've recommended Derek to my friends whose children and teens are now benefiting from his tutoring, and I'm happy to recommend Derek to families looking for a reliable Vancouver English tutor"

π§βπ Affordable Tutoring that Helps Teen Sons Succeed
As a parent of two teenage boys, I really appreciate Derek's Tutoring. Although Derek has his teaching office in the Joyce-Collingwood neighbourhood of Vancouver, he used to go to Coquitlam to teach my sons at the Coquitlam Public Library, City Centre Branch, and in the food court at Henderson Place Mall. We live in Coquitlam, and I've been happy with Derek's affordable and easy-to-schedule lessons. Derek started tutoring my older son in grade 7, and he graduated high school with a strong mark in English Language Arts 12. Derek has been coaching my younger son in English writing since grade 4, and he is going to grade 11 this September. He continues to teach my son online through Zoom using Google Docs, providing effective academic writing support and helping him improve his skills.

π¨πΌβπ Student Success Stories
"Derek's interactive online English lessons assisted me in enhancing my English 10 letter grade. After only a few months, I achieved one grade higher after taking lessons with Derek. He helped me power up my academic writing (grammar, sentence and paragraph structure), study skills, test preparation, and vocabulary.

" For three years, Derek has been a friendly, caring, progressive, and understanding tutor with a flexible schedule. He has coached me since grade 8 and because of him, I highly elevated my English reading and academic writing.
