Alex R
This was a general chat with Alex regarding our requurements. Went very well and we have decided to use Alex going forward. Only issue is that Alex wasn't able to add the session as a chat and so we have been charged - possibly an issue with the app which I am sure we can get resolved

My first lesson with Miss Dania was very helpful. She explained core concepts of topics Iwas struggling with very well and made sure the lesson was interactive by constantly asking me questions and marking me think deeper about the reasoning behind difficult topics. She also explained how to answer questions based on the markscheme and went through exam questions with me thoroughly too.
