Jessica L

My son Alexander is in year 9 and started working with Jessica in the summer. I just felt that he isn't really engaged with his English lessons in school, but the school never raised any concerns. His attitude and confidence is changing dramatically through the work with Jessica. Jessica is a fantastic tutor: experienced, calm, attentive and inspiring. Her lessons are well structured and interesting. Alexander will tell her what he finds difficult in school, and they will just work on it. He really likes her, and his effort & conduct are outstanding in his first school report. I am confident that English will be no problem going into the GCSE years.
