She introduces educational games and interactive activities into her classes, ensuring improvement and confidence in her students' use of English.
Fiona specialises in one to one and small group English tuition and is experienced with the needs of children in both international and local schools. She uses modern teaching methods to provide engaging and tailored lessons in the following focus areas:
"We feel very lucky to have Miss Fiona, our children love her lessons. They really enjoy Fiona's storytelling and they like interacting with her. She has helped them to start to read by themselves by teaching them phonics skills and they have gained a lot of confidence. Fiona is very easy to deal with and we can always reach her by phone, email or WhatsApp."
Mrs. V. Li, West Kowloon
"Time spent with Fiona is time well spent - a big thank you to her for being infinitely patient with our three girls. We’ve noticed considerable improvement in their vocabulary, and writing assignments. The girls can now better plan, structure and write cohesively. We found Fiona friendly, very professional, well organised, and she provides regular constructive feedback to the girls."
Mr. R. Wong, Jordan
"We chose Fiona to tutor our girls because she provides fun and interesting lessons and doesn’t just follow a textbook. For example, our eldest daughter enjoyed making a treasure map, which was an interactive activity Fiona created to practice writing and giving instructions. Fiona can also tackle any queries that might come up when the girls are studying and support them to understand and complete exercises for school or exams."
Mrs Tam, Jordan
"My son’s vocabulary and my daughter’s phonics and reading skills have greatly improved with Fiona’s help. She is a very knowledgeable English tutor. Fiona uses a variety of teaching approaches, which makes her lessons more engaging and keeps the children interested."
Ms. S. Cheung, West Kowloon
"Fiona has a fresh and professional approach to tutoring. She spent time understanding our sons' needs, and this gave us confidence that her lessons would concentrate on important areas of the curriculum. She delivered focused lessons, and a homework plan that helped our eldest son structure revision for his upcoming exams. Our sons liked Fiona because she knew her material well, and was easy to communicate and get along with."
Mr. C. Thomas, West Kowloon
"Fiona has a clear native accent which is easy to understand. Her lessons are well prepared and follow a logical progression. Fiona adapts the lessons to my level and learning style. She helps me to understand and correct my mistakes, and I can use the grammar and vocabulary she teaches to practise and understand more during my daily life."
Ms. B. Cantaloube, Mid-Levels
"Fiona got results with our son which nobody else has. When my son’s school told us his handwriting wasn’t neat enough, I bought him handwriting books, but he wouldn’t try at home. Unlike other tutors we tried, Fiona had engaging ways to practice handwriting, as well as the skills to refocus my son when he procrastinated. He liked Fiona and had a smile on his face during lessons. Now he can write in nice legible writing. I would definitely recommend Fiona."
Mrs I. Shaw, Jordan
