I have had the pleasure of having Ms. Sardinha as both my primary school teacher and as a fitness instructor later on. In both cases I felt supported, challenged and listened to. Thanks to her, I was able to achieve my goals, and the confidence she instilled in me remains to this day. I remember her reading “Oh The Places You’ll Go!” by Dr. Seuss to my class before a big exam, as a way to inspire us to try our hardest and that despite what hardships come our way, we will succeed. This remains one of my favourite children’s books to this day. I would recommend Ms. Sardinha to everyone, she remains not only my favourite teacher but my former schoolmates’ favourite teacher as well.

Suzanne has taught my 3 children - 1 at university, 1 at college and the other at primary school is still being tutored by her. Her execution and level of patience I have witnessed during my son's sessions is impeccable. My son, being dyslexic, has benefited tremendously from her tutoring.

Teacher Suzanne is a highly creative and enthusiastic teacher. Her notes for math are vibrant and memorable. I'm in awe of her patience, she wouldn't move from the topic until I mastered and felt comfortable with it.

Her eagerness to share her wealth of knowledge with my daughter, was truly impressive. I mastered and felt comfortable with it.

I believe confidence in Mathematics is paramount and Suzanne gave my son back the confidence he had been lacking over the past couple of years in just a few weeks. Suzanne is organized and systematic in her approach and encourages her students to follow her example. Suzanne builds a rapport with her students which engenders enthusiasm for the subject matter and fosters a love of learning. 

Thank you so much for tutoring Elsie. Your extensive knowledge and patience has enabled her to surpass our expectations in the recent Common Entrance exams. Your organizational skills and stern yet friendly attitude not only make learning fun for the students but in turn make it easy for us, the parents, to manage in this very stressful time.

Suzanne tutored my daughter through her first year of math at the St. Joseph’s Convent (SJC). I shared the curriculum so that she could re-enforce and augment what was expected. I am very happy that we engaged Suzanne for many reasons. First, the class size n transition from The Montessori Center to SJC did not allow for the personalized approach of student learning and individual attention to address difficulties with the curriculum.  Secondly, I did not have to worry about gaps in the curriculum due to teacher absence or overall pace of the class. Third, offering more than one approach to tackling math whether it be a different approach to problem solving or those endless creative ways Suzanne comes up with to approach difficult concepts offered reassurance to my daughter and built her confidence. I know there are lots of competing interests for kids' time but I really wanted my daughter to approach math without feeling intimidated and Suzanne has been instrumental with this.

"Knowledge is power” ... We witnessed an amazing transformation from floundering with basic concepts to excited to learn. Strict, no nonsense, innovative, and tailor-made lessons specific to my son’s needs were a godsend boost to moral in all areas of his life. My only regret as a parent was wishing we had started this process of extra help sooner!!!

Teacher Suzanne has been tutoring my daughter Aliya for few years and has really made a big difference .Aliya use to think that she was bad at math and that she would never get it. But, Teacher Suzanne turned everything around and now Aliya loves math! So much so that she has chosen Additional Mathematics for her GCSE exams. Suzanne is great, passionate and a very professional teacher. I am so grateful that Aliya had a chance to learn with her.

Suzanne treats each student as an individual learner which is evident in the lessons that she prepares to suit everyone’s unique learning style.  She is flexible with what will be taught each week, as she caters for those needs. She is extremely well organized and prepared for each lesson. Suzanne is more than "just" a lessons teacher. She is a motivator, listener, someone who thinks outside the box and engaged in her student’s lives.  Suzanne has taught two out of our three children which has totaled about eight years. Our children are fortunate to have had her.

Suzanne places as much emphasis on knowing her student well as she does on imparting knowledge about the subject she's teaching. As such, she can present information to the student in a manner that ensures understanding and builds both confidence and competence. As a parent, I truly appreciate that when she provides feedback about my child I can hear that she is in fact speaking about my unique child because she has taken the time to know him. She is firm but fair and makes learning even math palatable.

Suzanne was a very responsible, punctual and organized tutor. She was also very strategic in her approach, sharing valuable study and recollection tips with our son. She covered a range of topics that helped prepare our son for Math Common Entrance, where he performed very well. He was very comfortable with her as a tutor and the one-on-one classes meant that he received personal and dedicated attention that allowed her to clue in on his inherent issues, while facilitating  an openness about his shortcomings, without embarrassment or self consciousness.  He said that she made Math fun! 

I am very grateful to Suzanne for all her efforts with my son.  He excelled at common entrance largely due to her.  For the first time, he was excited to learn and was motivated.  She tailors each class to the individual needs of each child and gets them to work.  Thanks Suzanne.

Teacher Suzanne has been teaching our girls for years. She has been instrumental in getting them excellent grades in both the Common Entrance Exam and CSEC Math as all my children got above 90%.   She gives step by step instructions to make it easier for them to understand.  She is very punctual and works hard to get the children to do well.  We are very happy with the service she provides for us.

Suzanne is a dedicated teacher and a champion for her students. My son has learning difficulties and she took time out to research his issues and how best to address them. Suzanne did not just teach him but made sure she understood him and how he processed information. And she always kept me posted on his progress or any issues that I should be aware of. 

Suzanne took a proactive approach to teaching my son, he has excellent long-term memory but poor short term. She used that as her basis to cover the Common Entrance syllabus so the important and very detailed topics were taught very early so he would be confident in them when exams came around. In teaching him fractions she introduced him to a less used method because she realized he picked up that pattern better and he could master the topic through her approach after struggling with it using the traditional approach. I would recommend Suzanne, she is not a tutor but really an investment in your child especially if they struggle. She does more that support what is done at school she makes the school syllabus accessible to your child under his/ her terms.

Suzanne has been tutoring my two boys from 2015. She prepared my older boy, who was homeschooled, for the Common Entrance Examination. He was very easily distracted at school and his motivation was decreasing and often did not do his homework. He was transformed from the first class, rushing to do his math homework as soon as the session finished. The increased motivation was carried on to other aspects of his life. Similarly, Suzanne could get my younger one enthusiastic about his spelling and language. He has some learning difficulties that manifests in spelling so he did not look forward to language. Moreover, he loves the outdoors and often it’s a struggle to get him indoors to get homework done, worse during vacation. However, he looked forward to his sessions with Suzanne, even during vacation. Naturally both improved their grades and the older one did very well in Common Entrance, excelling in Math.

I first met Suzanne over 15 years ago in Miami, FL where she was my high school Biology teacher. I always appreciated her personalized approach toward each student’s learning style. She always prepared very detailed lesson plans and used great visual aids to help get the main concepts of the lesson plan across to the class. I recognized her passion for teaching and have remained in touch with her since then!

Every kid hopefully has at least one teacher that is one of a kind, one that they will remember forever. For me, that teacher was my 9th grade Biology teacher, the one and only Ms. Sardinha. She was the perfect combination of strict and kind. She demanded discipline and respect, yet we knew that she truly cared about us and our education. I am incredibly proud to call her a mentor --I am now an educator myself-- as well as a friend that I still keep in touch with today.
