REVIEWS:
Amina: We miss her voice in the house. Our daughter had her first school day on Monday and had a wonderful time. She’s been loving going to school and has made some friends already. The feedback I’ve gotten from most teachers ( and Noor) is that she understands most of what is being said. Thank you for supporting her and getting her up to speed enough to understand the language. Your effort (and of course hers) is evident in the confidence she has shown at school this week and I really grateful for the positive influence you have had during the learning process.

Chevaan: Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, and engaging homework, and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian: Catharina has been teaching our 11-year-old daughter for the past few months and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha: Very professional, friendly, and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle: Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to one's needs, gives very clear explanations, and most importantly works on pronouncing the language. She provides lesson material for every lesson.

Fun & Interactive English, Reading, and Literature Practice (Ages 7–12)

In this online class, I help young learners build genuine confidence in their English speaking, reading, and listening skills. Because I focus heavily on creating a patient and friendly environment, students feel completely safe making mistakes and growing at their own comfortable pace.

What We Focus On In Class:

• Conversational Fluency: Engaging in fun, everyday topics, storytelling, and interactive discussions to get your child speaking English naturally and effortlessly.

• Reading & Comprehension: Diving into age-appropriate stories and literature to improve vocabulary, correct pronunciation, and ensure they truly understand what they read.

• Active Listening: Practicing targeted listening exercises so your child can easily follow school instructions and confidently express their thoughts in English.

• Homework Support: Patiently breaking down English and reading assignments from school so they stay on top of their grades.

Every session is conducted via webcam in a structured yet highly encouraging format. Whether your child is shy and needs a boost in conversational confidence, or simply wants a supportive guide to practice reading and literature with after school, this class is tailored to meet their unique needs!
