TEACHING MATERIALS SCIENCE

TEACHING FRENCH

[Transl. fr. Spanish] It has been a great experience working with Olivier, who was very pleasant, attentive, and super professional. He customized a program to adapt it to my back and calves’ lesions, and in the end, I witnessed how they got stronger. Olivier was always attentive to my progression, giving the proper guidelines and altering the exercises when discomfort rose. I am very pleased with the improvements regarding muscle tone and strengthening of the injured areas and with the weight loss. Many thanks, Olivier, Regards. Abel I.

You always have this mind set for student success, which is excellent. You always asked everyone “Do you understand? Do you want me to go over it again?” That helped me as a student because it shows that someone cares and is willing to take the time so I may succeed. […] When I feel someone is caring about my success it helps me to put my full effort into what I do. […] You always want to improve, which is excellent. For me when I see an instructor asking what I can do to change if something is not working, really shows character because it shows you want to go the extra mile to do the best you can. In my opinion you treated everyone with the same respect and wanted success from everyone. Colin H.

My experience taking class with Olivier has been superb. I have progressed at a pace close to a factor of double what I was previously achieving in one on one classes, with other teachers, using the same system on lower level material. He has stuck to the lesson plan while simultaneously adapting to my own learning style and topical attention span. It is customary to rotate through various teachers progressively to get exposure to different styles at the school I am attending. Since being rotated into Olivier's class I have requested to have him as a teacher continuously, that was nearly 5 months ago. Fraser D.
