I am Chris and I am 45 years old from the Philippines. I am an Optometrist who loves to sing, cook, do gardening, eat, read and loves to perform in school plays.
I love making friends and spend time with them even just for coffee and exchange conversations. Most of my friends and former classmates call me mommy or nanay in tagalog because they find me as a caring person just like a typical mother. I love to take care if people and that is why I chose to become an eye doctor so I can take care if my patients. Most of my patients are not just my patients but they became my friends.
Me as a Teacher
I was once a shy kid and one teacher helped bring out the best in me. She coached me until I discovered my talent and love for singing and acting and now as a teacher, I would also like to help bring out the best in my students
I have no teaching experience in a school but I tutor my 3 nieces which they love doing with me for I make learning fun and easy for them. I use creative ways for them to learn and through this challenging experience I discovered my passion for teaching and that is when I decided to learn more so I can teach more. So I decided to take the TESOL course and now I am a TESOL certified.
My lessons & teaching style
Our class will be light, easy, friendly and fun but full of knowledge and information. I will teach you step by step according to whatever level you are in, may it be as a beginner, intermediate or advance. In our class, you are free to speak what's on your mind and no need to be shy or be afraid to ask questions and I will do my best to answer it.

I had a wonderful lesson with Ati Chris. She took the time to get to know me and my goals. She adjusted her level of Tagalog to match my needs. I am looking forward to future lessons.

Today I met Ate Chris and had an enjoyable lesson. I have forgotten a lot of my Tagalog and have a lot of gaps to fill back up. With Ate Chris, I have hope of doing this. Thank you for your lesson and I will see you again for more lessons. Salamat po!:)
