Sarah T
Sarah has been absolutely fantastic with Sophie, my daughter, who is currently in year 10. Sophie had very low confidence with her Chemistry and was struggling to find a way forward with revision and methods for retaining the information. After her first lesson with Sarah there was an almost instant transformation in Soph’s attitude to Chemistry. She has grown to enjoy the subject rather than dreading it and gets so much from the time that Sarah spends with her. Sarah is very communicative and spends time keeping me informed of progress which is so appreciated. We’ve had many tutors over the years through Tutorful (as I have older twins who studied the sciences) and Sarah is proving to be a truly outstanding tutor. Thank you Sarah!
