Find a tutor Sophie Isabella H
My daughter has been working with Sophie for just a few weeks, and we are already so impressed! Sophie is such a lovely tutor. Sophie is supporting my daughter with her GCSE English. Her lessons are thoughtful, well planned and genuinely tailored to Daisy’s individual needs. She has a wonderfully clear, supportive and encouraging approach, and we’ve already seen a real difference in Daisy’s confidence with English. It’s so lovely to see her beginning to believe in herself more. Sophie is patient, kind and clearly really cares about helping her students succeed. We feel very lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

Ameela R
Ameela tutored my daughter in English language and literature. She was given a weekly task which they went through together and Ameela provided her with invaluable skills in essay structures and exam technique. She really helped my daughter understand what the examiners are looking for and had been struggling to get above 7s before her tutoring started. She got two 9s and definitely has Ameela to thank for helping her see what she had to do to get there. Thanks so much! Definitely recommend!

Caroline B
We have had a really positive experience with Caroline as our online English tutor. She is extremely patient, understanding and supportive when working with my teenager, who has autism. She takes the time to explain things clearly and in different ways whenever my child struggles to understand the work, making sure they feel comfortable and supported throughout the lesson. Her calm and encouraging approach makes learning a positive experience and helps build confidence. I really appreciate Caroline’s patience, understanding and dedication, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and supportive English tutor

Rachael T
We've had a few sessions with Rachael now, and from the very first one my daughter was hooked. As soon as it ended, her first question was, "When do I have Miss Rachael again?"
Rachael took the time to properly assess where my daughter was with her phonics and reading, and she builds every lesson around exactly what she needs. She's warm, patient and makes learning fun, and I can see my daughter's confidence growing.
I especially value her detailed feedback after every session. I always know what was covered and what's coming next, which makes it so much easier to support her at home.
When my son is old enough, I'd love for him to learn with Rachael too. I'd recommend her to any parent without hesitation.
