Anita S
Anita has adapted very well to my son’s learning needs and has approached the sessions in a way that is both structured and effective. We specifically asked whether she could teach him in a formula-like way, with clear frameworks he could follow in exams, and she has done exactly that.
My son has an EHCP, and Anita has been thoughtful in adapting her teaching to suit the way he processes information. She explains clearly, asks the right questions, and works at a pace that stretches him without overwhelming him. He feels comfortable asking questions in her sessions, which is very important.
She focuses strongly on exam questions and structure, especially the 40-mark question, and my son is already getting better at approaching this. She also sets homework, which helps reinforce the learning between sessions.
Overall, Anita has provided exactly the kind of structured, exam-focused support my son needs, and we are very pleased with the progress he is making in a very short period of time.
