ELODIE ASSELIN

'Chris taught English to our three children for four years, starting when we arrived in Hong Kong in 2011. At the time they were complete beginners. Our youngest was 4 years old, and the older girls, 6 and 9 respectively, were in primary at the French International School.

'He was very patient and committed to helping our children; he was able to adapt his pedagogy to three very different personalities and needs, and they just loved studying English with him. They found his way of teaching very entertaining, and always looked forward to their lessons which were full of games to help memorise, practise and apply their learning. The atmosphere they found very positive and encouraging. Learning English this way was super fun and efficient. 

'Not only did they achieve great academic results, but they made huge progress in creativity, self-checking, pronunciation, focus, confidence and so much more. Less than 2 years after starting their lessons with him, our younger two were both admitted to the bilingual section at FIS, and our eldest achieved A+ in IGCSE in 2016 clearly thanks to Chris’ teaching.

'Even today in 2020, the kids still remember Chris as ‘the best teacher they ever had’.'
