Just a few minutes before my first lesson with Carol I was slightly nervous. Talking to strangers, especially in English, has never been my forte. But as soon as I accepted the call and the bright smile popped up on the screen, my senses told me everything is going to be just fine. I enjoy learning with Carol, her lessons are never tedious or dull. She is an energetic, amiable, sympathetic and witty person that never fails to amaze me. She supports and helps and thanks to her I have gained self-confidence when it comes to my speaking skulls. If Carol is your English teacher, you are truly fortunate.

Carol showed creativity and originality in her approach to teaching, using her extensive knowledge of business to add an extra dimension to the teaching of Business English.

Carol was empathic to my 14-years old daughter’s needs and planned lessons that were instructive fun and interesting. She helped my daughter in speaking and writing English and her school marks improved significantly. Carol came to us highly recommended by another student, and we were not disappointed. We would recommend Carol as a teacher for any age and we feel confident that she will encourage and motivate students.

Since joining us in 2012, she has taught students with pe-intermediate and advanced level of English, with good results in both groups. She is known to be sensitive to the needs of her students, not only academically, but also personally. Her personality earned her the admiration of her colleagues and her students. I highly recommend Ms Jardine for any teaching position. It has been a pleasure to work with her.

Carol works well with the Laoitian staff, and there has been a marked improvement in their spoken English and general listening skills. She has greatly improved the confidence of the lower levels of staff, and increased their motivation and interest in learning English. In addition, she has widened the vocabulary and general business awareness of the more senior staff through fortnightly discussion.

I was looking for a teacher, who would be able to help me with my IELTS exam. And Carol helped me with that very much. Today I continue studying with Carol to increase my level of English using information that is interesting for me and I am very glad about that. Moreover, now my brother is studying with Carol also.

Carol was not just a teacher for us she was also our friend. We had great times with her. During the lesson we were not aware of the fact that she was teaching a lesson because it was so interesting. We learned so many things! She encouraged me greatly to pass the proficiency exam, which is really hard. She played a great role in this success. She believed in us and supported us. Thank you carol for everything. We as your students miss you a lot!

My classes with Carol were always fun, especially the moments with the song "The Scottish Soldier". When she had visitors in Istanbul, we used to guide them, which was also fun and a great way to improve my English. At the end of eight months my English level rose from pre-intermediate to advanced. I think this explains Carol as a teacher.

We decided to offer Business English classes to all employees of the Insurance Supervision Agency in order to gain confidence and improve performance in English, since we use it daily in our correspondence. Carol is a fantastic teacher that can empower people with enthusiasm for the language and provides an excellent platform for learning. The teaching material she uses is adapted to our specific needs and very diverse in substance, so that it can applied right away in everyday business situations. Further added value of her teaching is that she does not only give English classes but also coaches specific business soft skills such as presentation skills, negotiations, business behaviour, etc. So basically you get two classes in one, which makes the program very invigorating. If you are deciding how to empower your employees with new energy and advance their business performance Carol is the right answer to your enquiry. I would strongly recommend Carol as a teacher, coach and motivator that can help your company grow and adapt to the changing business environment that needs proactive participation of all the employees.

I find our English classes very useful. Since the occasions I have to speak English are very rare, for me personally the most important part of our English course is conversation. Themes for conversation are very well chosen. I am thankful for all of your comments and advice. The grammar lessons you chose were very useful, but even if I really needed them, I still preferred lessons with various topics that were basis for our conversation. Thank you very much for helping us improve our English!

Carol Jardine was my teacher in my prep-year in Boğaziçi University. Having a tutor who is always excited to teach you new information and tries to broaden your perspective was an amazing experience. I feel so lucky to be one of her students, she unquestionably had a really good impact on me that still lasts. My weakest ability was writing and now thanks to her along with other language skills I am capable of analyzing texts and gathering a proper essay from them. Wish you the best!”

Ms Jardine was able to establish a good rapport with the staff and I believe that the English language program has been a great benefit to our businesses.

Carol is a friendly teacher. She explains things well and in a fun way. She is not boring. After 3 years I now feel happy speaking in class and I can understand films and video games much better.

I find English classes very useful and for me, personally I think the most important part of our class is the conversation. The themes for conversation and grammar are very useful and well chosen. Thank you very much for helping us improve our English and I am grateful for all of your comments and advice.

Sanja Gruber, Sectoral Secretary , AZN

Our English classes are very useful. For me it is very important that in the class are students with the same background. Then it is much easier to speak in front of an audience. The lessons are very well chosen and helpful in everyday life. I also know that homework's are important for improvement and I promise that I am going to improve on that. Thank you Carol, for your patience with us.

Slavko Kavsek, Deputy Director, AZN

I have known Carol to be a hard-working, responsible and creative language instructor, who is also a very good team player. She has taught at various levels, teaching English for Academic Purposes, with a special focus on reading and writing, which she has carried out perfectly. In short, Carol would be an asset to any institution she works at with her dedication, her collaborative spirit and her pleasant personality.”

A.Ahu Ersozlu, Assistant Director, Bogazici University School of Foreign Languages, Istanbul.

Carol was one of the most creative and unusual teachers I have ever had in my life and that made me attend the lectures. She had that amazing attitude that every teacher should have and showed utmost care to her students. If this is being read by her new students, I envy you.
