Very Patien and Knowledgeable

Valerie is a great tutor. She is very patient and knowledgeable in her Greek skills and has the ability to get the language across to the student in a way that makes lessons fun and the learning easy. I was a beginner at Greek and she helped me learn vocabulary in a conversational way as well as provided typical classroom teachings. I’m very happy to have worked with her!

Christiana, 7 lessons with Valerie

Knowledgeable, kind and VERY patient teacher

We reached out to Valerie when we were looking for a Greek tutor for our 6 year old son. She has been wonderful and somehow has been able to keep out son engaged and focused. She is patient beyond words and goes with the flow when he starts to veer off topic. In only a few shorts weeks my son is understanding and READING Greek. We are beyond pleased and couldn't recommend Valerie more. We are extremely grateful for all she has done for us.

Elizabeth, 36 lessons with Valerie

Knowledgeable, experienced teacher; enjoyable to work with; good combination of patience and efficiency.

Tutorial session included how to choose and use materials for learning, how to navigate the Wyant interactive tutorial system, useful learning steps to take for a beginning student, sensible goals in preparation for next tutorial. Looking forward to continuing the process with Valerie.

Great!

Valerie is patient, and teachs well. She is nice, and has resources prepared for you to get/download. She also doesn’t teach too much to remember. She also does not expect you to remember everything she says. Overall, great tutor!
