Craig A
English tutor
My 10-year-old daughter started having lessons with Craig about 4 weeks ago. She was very reluctant to have a tutor when I first proposed the idea. I thought I would have a hard job on my hands to get her to attend. To my delight she has embraced the lessons due to Craig’s engaging style of teaching. She ends every lesson with a big smile on her face. In just a short space of time her confidence has increased, and she is enjoying her learning experience. She can’t wait to demonstrate what she has learnt when she gets back to school. This is a great turnaround in her attitude a short space of time. It’s great how Craig is able to keep her attention on these online sessions. Personally, I wasn’t a hundred percent convinced that the online format would work, but it does. Craig also sets her homework to do in between lessons which is tailored to her specific needs. He always provides feedback at the end of each lesson and is quick to respond to any queries.

Liz is a calm and caring tutor. She is very approachable and only after one session my daughter is much more focused. My daughters confidence has certainly been boosted. I would not hesitate to recommend Liz. Many thanks.
