Natalie is a fantastic tutor with good knowledge of syllabus and exam requirements. She identifies the weaknesses of student and is able to provide precise and effective guidance and instructions which have helped my son to gain insight and confidence in the subject. Natalie is organised and prepared before lessons as always. I am very grateful for Natalie’professional attitude and would highly recommend to her.

Michaela is an excellent Tutor. She tutored my son in English language after he got a grade 3 at GCSE. He needed a 5 to get onto his college course and with Michaela's help he got a 6! He hates English and has SEN: Autism, ADHD, and Tourettes, and she was brilliant keeping him engaged. She explained what the questions wanted him to do and how to analyse a text, which he never understood how to do before. Worth every penny! He is now starting a degree apprenticeship after going to college to do his level 3 civil engineering course. He would not be there if he didn't have Michaela's help. We're very grateful. I would be happy to recommend Michaela to anyone, especially if the learner has SEND.

I’m speechless. My daughter tells me what a great teacher Stephanie is and she is REALLY tough to please. She says she loves your lessons and is actually looking forward to learning more about maths! She went from an expected 2 in maths to a 5 in just two weeks. How did she do it?!!

Cameron is a talented tutor, he takes time to become familiar with his students so he can cater his lessons to their interests. My daughter really enjoys her lessons and actively engages with the homework because she enjoys it.
