Isabel T
Energetic English tutor
I have worked in education most of my career, firstly as a Primary teacher from 1986 and later as TEFL teacher from 2009.Since 2017 I also started to tutor 11+ to yr4 and yr5 children as there was quite a demand at the time. The students I taught stayed with me as their regular tutor up to the time they sat the test. I am pleased to state that all my students to date have secured a place at a Grammar School in Torbay. I specialise in English and Maths, with a passion for helping children to engage and progress in the skills required for the Entrance exams. I have an abundance of past test papers...

Learning English can be such an effective way of counteracting the loneliness and...

Craig T
KS2 & SATS Specialist English
I am very happy to offer extra tuition and support and this is my method, built on years of experience and which actually works:A responsible adult/parent must be with child and engaged during each lesson.The lessons need to start at a level where the child feels secure - regardless of the end goal we have in mind.You will need to book a minimum of 2 lessons/week. It is better to build confidence by returning to the subject more often and for short periods.I offer a 10 lesson package minimum.I am a highly experienced teacher, having taught internationally and in a wide range of school types . I...

Louise E
Louise is a phenomenal tutor. She really engages and interacts with my daughter and she enjoys the lessons. At first she wasn’t sure whether online tuition would work for her but she is finding it helpful and happy to to the homework. I feel she has learnt a lot and it will help her in her upcoming GCSE English.

William C
William has been tutoring my son to prepare for his Year 6 English SATs for about 3 months.
He has been of great help and has turned my son’s English homework and lessons into a weekly routine habit.
My son is gradually making progress in English reading comprehension, which is the area William has been focusing on the most.
The lessons with William have also helped my son take more ownership of his homework, which he is now doing more independently.
William has been giving us timely feedback after every lesson, providing concrete examples of specific areas where my son should focus to improve moving forward.

Holly E
Holly has only been tutoring my son for a short while but has already had a marked improvement in his English grade. She is very patient and always provides encouraging feedback, and her online content is very bespoke to my son's requirements. I would highly recommend Holly.

Sandra R
We cannot recommend Sandra R highly enough! Our son, who has SEN, struggled with English and lacked confidence.
From the first session, she identified his needs and adapted her approach to suit his learning style. Her patience and encouragement created a safe space where he felt comfortable asking questions. In just two months of working with Sandra R, his confidence grew, and he passed his resit - something we never thought possible.
If you need a tutor who truly cares and brings out the best in students, Sandra R is the one!

Piper S
My daughter has had 6 lessons with Piper in preparation for her GCSE English exam this year. As a parent, the weekly feedback she has provided has been really constructive; showing that her lessons are well-organised, that she is targeting areas for improvement as well as addressing positives. She has been completely reliable. Most importantly, my daughter has nothing but positive things to say about Piper and feels that the tutoring is very helpful to her. Thank you, Piper, for your ongoing support.

Ben H
Ben has started tutoring my son who is in Year 11.
My son has always found English very difficult and he has been reluctant to let me help him, but Ben has been really supportive and helpful, so much so that my son has been happy to attend every session so far.
I would recommend him to anyone, as he knows what AQA are looking for and conveys information clearly and with patience. I wish we had started earlier.
I am really happy we chose Ben.
