About Philip

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have 5+ years of experience in teaching, tutoring, and childcare for students of all ages. I specialize in standardized test prep and all aspects of English: reading comprehension, grammar, writing skills, and ESL. I also have experience with French, math, and the dramatic arts. What I love most about education is getting to understand a student's mind, drawing out their natural curiosity, and seeing their face light up when they finally understand a tricky concept. I take special joy in tailoring my approach to neurodivergent students who, like me, work best in an adaptable environment.

I've had the pleasure of working with Philip for about a year now, and I can confidently say he is an outstanding tutor. He's always shown a deep understanding of the English language and has a natural ability to explain complex ideas in an engaging way that makes it clearer and more fun for the students. Philip is able to connect with the students on a personal level and customize his teaching style to fit what each student needs. His students always feel supported, encouraged and inspired to learn. In addition to this, Philip brings a positive attitude to work every time and this positive energy creates a supportive and collaborative learning environment that has fostered his students' growths and successes. He is truly an exceptional educator and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and inspiring tutor.
