Booked Andrea for some last minute GCSE Italian tutoring for my son. He really enjoyed the lessons and it has given him confidence going into the exams and very beneficial last minute practice!

Lorraine A
I cannot recommend Lorraine highly enough as an A-Level Drama tutor.
Before working with her, I struggled with concise essay writing and it felt almost impossible to master under exam conditions. Lorraine completely transformed that for me.
She really helped break down the exam technique in a way that was specific and practical, helping me adhere to the mark scheme. She gave me clear frameworks for structuring my answers concisely without losing depth which had always been my weak point.
Lorraine is also very generous with her time, her knowledge, and her encouragement.
Thanks to her guidance, I felt able to walk into my drama exam room prepared and calm.
If you’re an A-Level Drama student, especially one who finds the written side of the course difficult, Lorraine will be a great help!
Thankyou :)

Amelia T
As a Year 11 Student doing GCSE Religious Studies, Amelia was very helpful when it came to thematic studies, teaching me topics such as cohabitation and euthanasia well with deep knowledge for the topic itself, as well as religious perspectives and arguments. Closer to the exam, we were able to do practise questions together, where Amelia was ready with model answers to help me improve my answer, as well as exam tips to ensure I maximise the marks, such as from having a clear focus, or adding detail in other places. I fully recommend Amelia for her tutoring services, as she is an excellent teacher, along with being kind, patient, and supportive!

Vithusini N
My daughter has found Chemistry tuition sessions very useful as Vithusini explains complex chemistry concepts into more simpler terms. She is also very prompt and helps my daughter with harder chemistry questions that she may come across at school or within individual practice. Vithushini also emphasises the use of practice questions in chemistry especially during exam season.
