Jessica C
Jessica is really knowledgeable and professional. We loved that she arranged a free video call with our son and us before we booked. Really lovely to meet her and our son was straight away comfortable. She is really knowledgeable on the GCSE AQA English exam and has been a great support to our son so far. Jessica will tailor the lesson to his needs as well as picking up on weaknesses that need more practice. Most importantly, our teenage son is quite animated and enjoying his lessons with Jessica. We could not wish for anything more. We would highly recommend. &

Leigh H
Leigh worked with our teenage son to prepare for his English Language iGCSE. With only a short time before the exam, they quickly developed a constructive rapport. Leigh was quickly able to assess where our son ‘was at’ in terms of his readiness for that exam. Over just a few sessions, analysis and writing skills were imparted and developed that meant our son felt prepared. Moreover, our son so enjoyed the way Leigh worked and his obvious passion for and skills in language analysis, that he chose to continue language analysis sessions just for the fun of it once the exam was over. A comment our son has made more than once after a session is, ‘I just love learning!’ The exam was passed really well – the outcome we hoped would be possible – but more significantly, we are grateful for Leigh’s ability to really draw out and develop our son’s enjoyment of the English language.
