Heather T
English tutor
Heather is an excellent tutor and I would highly recommend her if you are thinking of arranging English tuition. She helped to build my daughter’s confidence and also helped her to understand how to answer the GCSE questions in the right way so as to “tick the boxes” and attain high marks. She gave really useful feedback on written work which really benefited my daughter, both fact that it was individual detailed feedback, and the fact she was giving the feedback quickly while the writing was still fresh in my daughter’s mind (normally at school it takes weeks to get written work marked). Heather has a lovely friendly and reassuring manner and quickly put my daughter at ease so that she could really engage and do her best work during the sessions. Heather also offered to give feedback on further written work after the sessions had finished, which will be very useful. Heather’s rate per session is on the higher side compared to some other tutors but don’t let this put you off as it reflects her level of experience and what she can manage to achieve with students in a short time, and it will be very much worth it.

My son has had a few lessons with Kayleigh to help him with English Language. She quickly put him at ease and took time to understand where he needs the most help. He feels really comfortable with Kayleigh and he has already grown in confidence massively. I would strongly recommend Kayleigh.
