Craig T
Current Y6 teacher: SATS & KS2 Specialist
I am very happy to offer extra tuition and support and this is my method, built on years of experience and which actually works:A responsible adult/parent must be with child and engaged during each lesson.The lessons need to start at a level where the child feels secure - regardless of the end goal we have in mind.You will need to book a minimum of 2 lessons/week. It is better to build confidence by returning to the subject more often and for short periods.I offer a 10 lesson package minimum.I am a highly experienced teacher, having taught internationally and in a wide range of school types . I...

Sophie C
Supportive English tutor with five years of experience.
Hello! My name is Sophie and I graduated from Durham University in English Literature in June 2024. I decided to study English Literature at university because I've always loved reading books and discussing them at length. Reading and analysing books gives us a better understanding of the world we operate within, human psychology, and the past. Outside of English, I love to draw, knit, and embroider. I also come from a big family, so I love spending time with them when we are together. I grew up internationally and lived in several countries before finally moving back to the UK.I also write my...

Theresa A
Theresa is very encouraging, supportive and engages with my child in a way that helps her to think and understand how to apply math methods and formulate answers. My child is also given homework at the end of each session, for my child to complete by the next lesson, so the re-cap of each math subject is consistent. Theresa's very gentle but assertive approach makes her to be the best choice any parent could make for their child, when seeking a tutor. My child's confidence in her maths have improved greatly as a result of their interaction. I am extremely pleased with my child's development and would highly recommend Theresa as the perfect tutor a child could have!

Kirsty H
Kirsty tutoring of my daughter has been excellent. Initially my daughter was low on confidence with her A-Level Criminology studies to the point where she considered dropping the subject after 1 year.
With Kirsty tutoring she has now become really confident in the subject and has come on leaps and bounds with the subject. In addition Kirsty has been very reliable and easy to deal with !!!
