Johanna P
Johanna has been tutoring my son in English for the Scottish National 5 exam preparation since February, and her support has been excellent. She is patient, engaging, and creates a very positive learning environment that my son genuinely enjoys. She supports him in understanding deeper meanings, analysing texts, and responding clearly and confidently in writing. As a result, his interest in English has grown significantly, along with his confidence in his ability to understand complex literature and poetry. His test results have improved substantially since he started working with her. Johanna is reliable, professional, and truly dedicated to her students. I would highly recommend her.
