What Business English & Academic Writing clients are saying ...
Precise Guidance
“Mairead is an outstanding English tutor who excelled in breaking down my assignment and guiding me through each step with clarity and insight. Her expertise in the English language is unmistakable, but what makes her truly exceptional is her ability to balance encouragement with precise guidance. Mairead intuitively recognized when to let me explore my own ideas and when to step in with gentle support, creating a learning experience that felt both engaging and effective. For anyone seeking to strengthen their English skills, I highly recommend Mairead as a tutor who understands how to foster both confidence and skill in her students.”
- Gregg R., Washington D.C.
Engaging Instruction
“Before taking this class I didn’t find much interest in writing, I only considered it another subject/skill which I had to improve on. However, after engaging in these topics and having these open discussions, I found myself wanting to participate in the conversations and I have been more motivated to write. Ms. Walsh has made the class a very positive environment and welcoming to different perspectives which encouraged me to participate. Ms. Walsh’s methods of teaching made the topics very interesting and not challenging to understand. I also appreciated the regular peer reviews which definitely improved my writing. Overall, I would say Ms. Walsh was a great instructor and I have benefited from her teaching methods.”
- Zoe S., New York, NY
Patient Leadership
“Ms. Mairead is an insightful and patient instructor. She gave me a lot of insight on various topics. I learned from her way of speaking to explain ideas that I have on a topic.”
- Katherine N., New York, NY
Insightful Feedback
“Ms. Mairead has supported my achievements during this course by providing insightful feedback. It was never just “very good” or “here is something you can work on”. The insightful feedback was detailed so I knew what I should enhance because it was already good and where I needed to amend things. I now know not to fall in love with my writing or the first finished product. This course has taught me to take time to review my writing and to not be afraid to take things out or put in new things. In terms of improving class procedures, I suggest more one-on-one time with Ms. Mairead.”
- Autumn W., New York, NY
Virtual Writing Support
“I don’t really have any criticism. I think the structure of the class is really good. Ms Mairead has supported my writing by giving me guidance throughout the drafting process.”
- Alexa A., New York, NY
Cooperative Learning Approach
“I think that cooperative learning was good because it allowed everyone to be immersed in different perspectives and ideas, allowing us to write new and interesting things for our essays.”
- John W., New York, NY
