- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.
- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study....

Eloise S
I am incredibly grateful to have had Eloise as my son’s tutor. She is kind, highly experienced, and exceptionally thorough in preparing students for both GCSE Literature and Language.
What stood out most was her guidance for the Language exam — she clearly explained how to approach each question, how to structure answers effectively, and provided insightful analysis of my son’s responses. Thanks to her detailed feedback, he gained a much clearer understanding of how to improve his answers and approach future exams with greater confidence.
For Literature, she carefully prepared extracts and helped him understand cultural context, deeper meanings, and poetic techniques in a way that made the texts far more engaging and accessible.
It is such a shame that she has to take a break, as my son truly benefited from her teaching. However, I feel very fortunate and thankful that he had the opportunity to learn from such a wonderful teacher. I sincerely appreciate all of her dedication and support, and I wish her all the very best.

Sohail S
i came to Sohail very worried about the theory side of my a level dt course, i had not studied it at gcse so had very little to no foundation of knowledge at the start and due to timing constraints and changes of teachers i spent the majorit of my lessons at school doing the NEA coursework side. Sohail clearly understood my situation and my goal of building up my knowlede of all aspects of the courses theory side as quickly and deeply as possible as i reached out to him a few months before my exam. He created a clear plan working through past paper questions with me and was extremely knowledgeable and helpful,i have my exam in a week and i feel so much more confident after our sessions he also gave me helpful insights and tips for small questions i had about my coursework. Hes been a very supportive tutor and i would 100% reccomend him to anyone taking DT as a subject.
