Robert P
Experienced, qualified Reading, VR and NVR teacher
I am an experienced and qualified graduate teacher at KS2 and KS3 level with many years' practice of teaching and preparing pupils for entrance exams to independent and state grammar schools.The importance of a sympathetic and patient approach is an essential quality that I have recognised and practised over a number of years. Pupils will find learning easier if they enjoy the work they are doing. Building confidence in pupils is vital as is ensuring that they understand the work and can thereby express their own ideas and not rely on memory alone. One-to-one teaching is the ideal way to demonstrate...

Through perseverance and the guidance of exceptional teachers, I gradually...

Eleanor B
Great first 'getting to know' lesson. Ellie helped Monty warm to the idea of tutoring by tapping nicely into his interests (he said afterwards that he really liked her) . He is positive about having another session next week. It was good that they could discuss his current school book; I think this is going to help him.

Hannah B
Within 5 minutes of specking to Hannah, I knew she was going to be my son’s tutor. She’s personable, passionate and knows her industry inside out. We’ve only had 2 lessons, but I can see the confidence and enjoyment on my son’s face as he’s learning. My son said after his 2nd lesson, ‘Hannah is so calm and I’m really enjoying tutoring’. We are actually so blessed to have found Hannah.

Nic H
Nic is a very experienced teacher who is able to adapt to different children, with an array of tools up her sleeve to keep the child engaged. After every lesson Nic is very good at telling me what they went through and what we should be focusing on. I think I am even learning myself on letter formation!
My daughter is a high functioning autistic person in reception, who needs to close some gaps in her phonics, numbers and handwriting. The leap from reception to year 1 can be difficult and Nic is helping me to get my daughter to a level where she will feel stable with the transition.
I was worried that a 1hr lesson would be too hard for my daughter and that she would not be engaged. My daughter is fully engaged and I am very impressed with what my daughter can achieve in her lesson.
