Michael P
English tutor
I can’t recommend Michael highly enough. He is reliable and hard working, really going the extra mile for his students. My daughter was lacking in confidence before starting to work with Michael. Her grade improved and she got into her first choice of university. She couldn’t have done it without him. Thank you!

Scott S
English tutor
Scott was an amazing tutor and should be charging more than he currently does. My son doubled his expected English g.c.s.e grade which was all down to Scott and his method of teaching. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing an English tutor. He's very polite, funny and worth every penny. 5* plus!

Rachael P

Rachael has given my daughter confidence with her A level English Language. She has broken down the structure of sentences, paragraphs and essays. Encouraged her to think a little wider and recognise how language differs when you consider differing sources.
