Daria A
Daria is great. She teaches My little one at least twice a week. The work they’ve been doing together has really made a difference. It is fun and well organised. She’s also very quick to reply to messages, should you need any further support outside of lesson times. Brilliant over all. Many thanks!

Dolores H
We've had Dolores help our 6 yo (Year 2) with Phonics which he has struggled with at school. She has been exceptionally good. She's worked with him over for an hour each week on a Sunday and provided us as parents with both really good feedback on his issues and actionable things which we can use both at home, like sound cards and simple things we wouldn't have otherwise have known to do, and things we can speak with the school about working on. She is a really nice, personable, flexible, person who is clearly very good with children. Would highly recommend for short or long term goals for any child.

Jade S
Jade has been great. She is responsive to messages, arrives on time and fully prepared. She has a clear sense of the curriculum and how to help my son catch up with what he has missed from school. My son likes learning with her and I have been amazed how well he concentrates with Jade the whole way through the lesson.
