"The teacher is patient and kind, objective in her assessment and willing to make extra steps to make a great learning experience."

Sophie Valerie Chan, student from Hong Kong

The overall experience is good. The Teacher is patient and kind and willing to make extra steps to make the learning experience a wonderful one. The home is spacious and suitable for learning without much disturbance. The location is a bit far from our home in Hawthorn but we managed to find transportation, but more importantly, the teacher is very flexible in helping us to pick up our kids. The places for the cultural visits are good, the teacher delivered a very useful day-to-day conversation to the kids. We would definitely recommend Teacher Joy to anyone.
