Ameela R
Ameela tutored my daughter for GCSE English Language and Literature.
Ameela provided a clear and focused approach to these subjects, which my daughter had felt difficult to navigate previously.
The confidence that my daughter developed in both subjects as a result of Ameela’s help was clear to see and developed very quickly.
She understood what she needed to do in order to achieve high marks and what examiners were looking for.
She was clear in what her strengths were and where she needed to focus to boost her grades.
After just a few weeks with Ameela, she got very high 8s in her kicks in January and our fingers are crossed for August!
More widely, the improvement in her English language skills also improved her performance in other essay based subjects and her confidence in writing more broadly so as overall a very positive experience!

Deborah J
Deborah has been the best tutor I could ask for. She’s so kind, patient, and has helped me gain a lot of confidence in my writing. Being bilingual I often struggled with the grammar and tenses in English but Deborah worked with me and has helped me go from a 4 to a 7! She makes each class very productive and tailored to you and has so many techniques up her sleeve. Honestly I would recommend Deborah to anyone! Without her I’m certain I could not have improved anywhere near what I have, as she pushes you gently but surely to do the best you can :)
