I have taught and tutored French and Spanish at the middle school, high school, and college levels for many years. I was an item writer for the Regents (now Checkpoint B) exam and the Proficiency (now Checkpoint A) exam. I was also on the final-eyes review team for the Regents exam.

Patricia was an amazing tutor, she jumped right in and assisted my daughter with her work. I highly recommend her to anyone. My daughter also said she really helped her to understand French.

Over the summer, Patti worked with our son who'd had a difficult six months in a new school. Spanish was particularly difficult for him because he missed the first six months, joining the class as a first time language student mid year. Patti worked with our son to catch him up with the basics, and providing explanations to some of the unique aspects of learning the Spanish language. Patti was very patient and supportive, availing herself for extra help by phone or internet. She offered suggestions about how to expose our son to the Spanish language and culture. Our son will be rejoining his class now having been exposed to a lot of the material that he missed, and we hope that he will have a new found confidence. Patti was always prepared and punctual, and our son felt very comfortable working with her. Our experience with Patti was very positive and we would highly recommend her.
