Carla J
Carla has made a fantastic impact preparing our son for his GCSE English Language and Literature. She has built his confidence enormously and sparked a genuine enthusiasm for the subject, challenging him to think beyond the obvious and really engage with the texts in depth.
Her sessions are well-structured, with weekly homework that is reviewed and discussed at the following lesson — keeping him accountable and reinforcing his learning. We are very pleased with the progress he has made and would wholeheartedly recommend her.
