Lily E
Lily is an excellent tutor, we highly recommend her. She tutored my son for his GCSE literature and language exams. Her sessions are really well planned and my sons engagement, question answering skills, essay technique and knowledge increased hugely thanks to her sessions.
My son had not been to school for over two years due to anxiety and although he had online lessons in English he really needed some extra help. Thanks to Lily he managed to raise his predicted grade considerably and went into his GCSE exams feeling prepared and confident.
