Rhian has been helping my son prepare for his GCSE’s for a few months now.. My son is very shy and had a late (year 9) diagnosis of dyslexia.. Rhian is kind, patient and understanding. Rhian has helped my son become a lot more confident with English over the past few months. Rhian has even changed her schedule to help with his exam timetable. Would highly recommend Rhian

Michael L
We are very pleased with the support and guidance our son has received from Michael. He explains clearly and thoroughly, which has really helped our son improve his understanding.
What we appreciate most is the detailed feedback he gives on assignments. His comments are extremely useful because they clearly explain exactly what needs improvement, rather than giving only general remarks. This helps our son understand his weaknesses and work on them.

Richard B
Richard is an excellent tutor. Alisa connected with him from the very first lesson (which is rare!) and he’s been consistently kind, calm and professional. He supported her with both English and Maths, always working on the areas she was struggling with and explaining things in a way that really made sense to her. Richard also sent helpful feedback after every lesson, which I really appreciated as a parent. We’ve seen a real improvement in Alisa’s confidence and her results at school. We’re very grateful and would absolutely recommend him.

Lynn is an excellent, patient and encouraging tutor who tailors every session to our son’s individual needs, focusing on the texts and areas of the curriculum he finds most challenging.
Since working with Lynn, his confidence has grown enormously and he feels much better prepared for his GCSEs. Thank you, Lynn!
