Lauren G
Effective tutor
My name is Lauren. I am a current Master's student studying Criminology. I have tutored in GCSE and A-level Geography before online. My then student and I went through his weaker topics a few times. This made sure he was as comfortable and confident as he could be when it came to sitting the exam. I have also tutored in GCSE English; although I don’t offer that service anymore, I similarly approach the teaching. For example, we would discuss relevant quotations and language techniques. Again, focusing on weaker parts at stages, I did make sure to cover as much as possible with both students. T...

Experienced Social Science Tutor.
I have taught in schools, colleges and as a private tutor for twenty five years. Whether one-to-one or in a class situation I have developed a teaching style that centres on the individual.

Suzie is enthusiastic and her lessons are great fun. At 65, I've never had singing lessons before and didn't believe I could do it, but her lessons were never intimidating and Suzie was adaptable and always encouraging, I would definitely recommend!

Ashleigh B
Thank you Ashleigh! Ashleigh has been an amazing tutor in supporting my daughter to achieve an A in A Level Psychology. As a person who was almost ready to give up on Psychology due to poor teachers who told her she wouldn't ever get more than a C, she is now looking forward to studying Pyschology and Education at University. Ashleigh has been incredibly patient and has worked to help my daughter understand how to answer questions to get the best marks possible and to help her build confidence.
We contacted Ashleigh after reading the positive reviews from other families and can confirm she is a brilliant tutor who has an in depth subject knowledge and who is professional, flexible and reliable. She has helped my daughter go from a D/C in her mocks to getting an A on her final exams. I would totally recommend Ashleigh as a tutor.
