Evelyn A
Evie is a brilliant tutor. Dedicated, friendly and extremely helpful. Iā€™m learning French from scratch, a big step for me as I am dyslexic and have always struggled with languages. Evie is kind and considerate and able to take my learning difficulty into account when planning lessons for me. She is thorough and professional, fun and easy to get along with. Evie makes me feel at ease which is very important as it can be quite terrifying in terms of speaking when you are a beginner! I would highly recommend Evie as your French tutor too!

Tadas B
My Son has been having online French horn lessons with Tadas during the lock-down and he absolutely loves them ! Tadas is friendly ,calm and has further encouraged my sons love of playing the french horn . Tadas always finds the music/ songs that my son enjoys and tailors the lessons accordingly. The half an hour lesson doesn't seem long enough as my son is having so much fun whilst learning. A Big Thankyou !
