Who We Are

My tutoring experience with Dr. Hasbach has been wonderful. She’s incredibly caring and supportive. She always helps me identify my mistakes and gives me the guidance I need to improve. Overall, she’s made me more confident and comfortable in my learning.

~ Grade 12 Student 2026

As parents, we were very happy with our child’s experience tutoring with Dr. Hasbach. Our child benefited greatly from preparing for the oral exam through refined phrasing and more nuanced, well-articulated responses, which elevated their English to the next level. Dr. Hasbach is highly experienced with the IB curriculum and deeply engaged with the subject matter itself, while remaining fully attuned to the grading criteria. In preparation for the written exams (paper one and two) she fostered meaningful discussions that naturally encouraged intellectual curiosity with a clear focus on deep and lasting learning rather than solely on achieving high marks.The tutoring provided structure, encouragement, and confidence, helping to elevate our child’s English skills to the next level. Communication was always professional and supportive, and our child felt comfortable and motivated throughout the process. We would gladly recommend Dr. Hasbach to other families seeking thoughtful and effective English tutoring.

 Dr. Hasbach is the most qualified person to teach English at such a high level, combining remarkable professionalism and responsibility with a friendly approach when working with young adults. My daughter has undoubtedly improved her understanding of the language in just a few weeks. Two smart people sitting together!
