Rhian P
I really value Rhian’s patience and her commitment to helping my son work things out for himself rather than taking shortcuts, and spelling out the answer for him. This clearly build deeper learning and confidence, which is exactly what my son needs English being very hard for my son, he normally gets easily discouraged but Rhian’s calm, patient and positive approach (she never lets him feel inadequate ) , coupled with the fact that every sessions are pack with highly relevant and hands on exercises, elevates him at every session .

Sarah T
We couldn’t be happier with Sarah. Sarah teachers my son (who is in year 10) Chemistry and Biology. She combines deep subject knowledge with a gentle, encouraging approach that makes hard topics in chemistry and biology accessible.
She consistently supplies a wide range of past questions and identifies gaps in understanding, whereby she supports him to improve in those areas. His confidence and grades have improved so much. Sarah is a brilliant tutor and we can’t thank her enough!

Thank you so much Izzy for all the support and encouragement you gave my son during his GCSE English preparation. Your teaching style made a huge difference to both his understanding and confidence. He went into his exams feeling far more prepared, calm, and positive than he ever had before.
You explained everything clearly, helped him improve his exam technique, and always made lessons engaging and supportive. We really appreciated the patience, dedication, and reassurance you gave throughout the process. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for an excellent GCSE English tutor

Neil F
I’ve had three singing lessons with Neil and in that short time I feel I’ve made great progress. I’ve had singing lessons before and have sung in choirs and Neil’s method is very different and much more effective. He has busted many myths about how to sing and I have found this immensely helpful and find that I am able to sing more naturally and I’m in the process of discovering a more authentic style of singing.
Neil has introduced me to new vocal techniques and the idea of singing as a means of communication. We have also covered the Four Stages of Competence, warm up techniques and the importance of posture.
Neil is very experienced and thorough and has a friendly, warm and engaging style of teaching. I feel that I have made the right choice when choosing Neil and have found the lessons with him utterly transformative!
