Amy W
Amy has been a superb motivator for a very lazy teenage boy! He was getting E's and Fs in his psychology exams but achieved a C in his final A level exam, which we were so pleased about. We started with Amy about a year ago and he has had weekly sessions with her. She is calm and makes the subject interesting so that she holds his attention. She helped him develop good exam techniques. She was also dependable and very easy to communicate with as a parent. I am very pleased with the result and would highly recommend Amy W as a tutor

Roxy C
Roxy has been an absolutely wonderful tutor. She is warm, very engaging, and clearly highly competent. Our son genuinely loved his lessons with her and always looked forward to them, which says a lot. We could see his confidence grow, and his writing abilities improved noticeably over a short period of time. Roxy has a fantastic way of connecting with children while still challenging them and helping them make real progress. We are incredibly grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to any parent.
