Pamela Claire's Feedback

Claire has provided top class support for our son whilst studying for A level chemistry. Her delivery has been excellent, ensuring each hour of tutoring is clear and concise - thoroughly covering any areas that my son found challenging. I cannot recommend her services highly enough!

Claire has been providing excellent tuition to my daughter, year 10, who has missed a lot through lock-downs. She is supportive and a perfect fit for me daughter.

Claire has been a wonderful help to my son in preparing for Combined Science GCSE online and they had a great relationship together. My son has some additional needs and Science was his worst subject! Claire managed to make him actually enjoy the subject and his marks, particularly in Chemistry, improved dramatically. Claire is very patient, thorough, and clear. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a tutor in Science.
Thank you for all your help Claire.

The tutor was friendly buy not what i was looking for.

Thanks
Chi.

Claire has been a great support form my daughter during her science revision for IGCSE. She became much more confident thanks to her tutorials with Claire.

Pamela simply saved the day. An excellent tutor who I got in touch with to do revision for our child. Even though I contacted Pamela late but she immediately concerned herself with to best each and equip the child in the best way she could. She was not concerned at all about money. It was so sincere and wonderful teaching experience for the child.
I would employ Pamela's services and expertise over and over .

Claire has been very helpful on Zoom with my grandson. He understands the topics which they have covered so far much better. I would recommend her online approach to teaching.

I made contact with this lovely professional lady and unfortunately Highers is not Pamela's area of expertise, but rather the English system of GCSEs and A Levels. She made prompt contact with me and was polite and friendly. If we were looking for GCSE or A level help we would not have hesitated in going ahead with this introduction.

It was a pleasure to work with Pamela. My daughter had just several lessons but they've covered a lot. Explanations were very clear, as my daughter said and made her more confident. We highly recommend Pamela as an exellent tutor!

Claire provides excellent and reassuring tuition for my daughter's GCSE Combined Science course. Her methodical approach is targeted to support my daughter's specific learning difficulty. Her explanations are delivered with an emphasis on clarity to maximise understanding. I would highly recommend Claire as a tutor for anyone looking to secure a tutor who is well-prepared, experienced and patient.

Claire is a lovely lady and a great teacher! So happy with our choice for Science tuition. My daughter obtained a well deserved 4.5 at her GSCSs and now she is trilled. Claire is a patient and an experimented teacher, I am highly recommend!
Thank you, Claire for everything!

Claire tutored my daughter in Chemistry for the whole of Year 13, and helped her improve to achieve an A grade in the new style A level. Claire is excellent at explaining things in different ways until they are understood. As the year went on, my daughter felt on top of the subject and has grown to really like Chemistry. Thank you Claire.

Claire has been fantastic with my daughter who had been predicted a 5 in her GCSE chemistry and after a few months with Claire acheived an 8! Her confidence in all her sciences improved as did her attainment. We have been so happy and impressed with Claires tutoring and have already booked her to support with chemistry A level.

Our daughter saw Claire on a weekly basis as a tutor for most of her year 11.

We went to her as our daughter was struggling with her double science GCSE. She felt there were subjects she had been taught in school that she really didn’t understand. At the end of her year 10 she was predicted a level 6 in science.

Claire’s expertise enabled our daughter to gain a better grasp of the subject. She often commented on the way home how she had finally understood things. This noticeably helped her confidence increase too. She was thrilled to have got an 8/7 in her GCSE. We are very grateful to Claire for her tutoring which helped to make this possible.

Dear Claire,
You have been fantastic in helping our son to gain the knowledge, understanding and confidence he needed in a subject that he was really struggling with at school. We were keeping our fingers crossed for 2 - level 4 results in science. He did much better! We were absolutely thrilled when he achieved a level 6 in paper 1 and level 5 in paper 2 !
Without your tutoring this would just not have been possible! A huge thank for all your help!
Kind regards,
Mr & Mrs Broad

Clair is a great teacher and my son really enjoys his lessons with her.
He is so good that we have already seen a lot of improvements in my son school work.
Would recommend her to everyone.

My daughter has had two lessons with Claire so far and already Claire has given her confidence and belief that she can achieve her goal.

I would highly recommend Claire. My daughter required help with A2 chemistry and the improvement in her application of knowledge and more importantly her confidence was wonderful to see. Claire's input was vital at what can be a very stressful time ! Many thanks Claire .

My 18 year old granddaughter was struggling with her chemistry A level and finding Claire was one of the best things we have done. Her calm and methodical approach has been an enormous help and she has shown my granddaughter an intelligent way to learning, reinforcing what she already knew, explaining with great clarity topics that she was finding difficult. The most important thing is that my granddaughter has grown in confidence and is very optimistic that she will do well in her finals. This is down to Claire's straight forward, unambiguous way of teaching which at this stage in a young person's education is just what they need. I have no hesitation in recommending Claire to other young people reaching this critical stage in their lives.

Claire has been very helpful and accomodating. Our son is making good progress and is no longer feeling 'overwhelmed' by the subject. Claire is patient and explains things clearly. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

My son failed his AS Level chemistry, but with Claire's help he has gone from a D to an A in his mock retake examination, with a few more months support he is now back on track to securing a high grade A level result.
Claire's teaching style and expertise has made a huge difference to his understanding and confidence

Claire worked with my son on his GCSE Chemistry. When he first started with Claire his confidence was low and his grade prediction was C/B at best. After working with Claire for a while his confidence increased and he became much better organised. He also started to really enjoy the subject and understand that he had ability. Largely through Claire's efforts he achieved an A* in Chemistry this year and has just embarked - with real confidence - on A levels in Chemistry, Biology, Maths and Computer Science. Claire will be continuing to work with him on his A level Chemistry.

After the first lesson my son said that Claire had been pleasantly relaxed and together they had reviewed all the topics (Chemistry GCSE) shortly, but in detail as well, which already has been very beneficial for him.

Claire was most welcoming in tutoring our 13yrs daughter. Awkwardly our daughter found she was fighting off sleep during the lessons (2 x 1hr per week). Claire's approach is very formal and concise; keen to ensure all the basics are well covered. Tutoring content was more of a style to pass exams as opposed to using current technologies and various programmes to engage and inspire. We felt confident that had our daughter been more engaged in the style of tutoring then success would have been hers. However our daughter requires education to be active, fun, engaging, and loves the use of technology.
We parted ways amicably. Lessons were taken from Feb/March through to May 2015. Thank you Claire for all your assistance.

Claire is helpful and patient. She explains things clearly and is careful to go at the right pace.

My daughter has started with Claire recently, she is brilliant!

My daughter really struggled with chemistry and found it very dull. She was on the verge of giving up. However once starting tuition with Claire it made her motivated and gave her confidence and she was able to understand everything. Her grade went from a D to a B. Would highly recommend Claire to anyone.

Claire has been so helpful! I have a much better understanding of the AS Chemistry organic unit which I was particularly struggling with, and now I feel well prepared for the exam in the summer. I would definitely recommend Claire for anyone struggling with their chemistry!!

Thanks. I have really benefited from our lessons. I will feel a lot more confident going into next year's physics and chemistry lessons.

Claire was excellent in tutoring my 16 yr old daughter for Chemistry and Physics.
She was confident in her teaching and worked with my daughter on her areas of weakness (due to lack of teaching at her current school).
My daughter told me after every session that Claire helped her enormously but as with most 16 yr old we are awaiting the GCSE results with baited breath!
Its such a shame parents have to resort to private tuition but if like me it was all a bit last minute then i can highly recommend Claire.
Grades permitting my daughter is hoping to continue with Claire for A level chemistry from the start of her course . I'm sure it would have made a difference if we had found Claire earlier as my daughter was studying triple science but unfortunately we watched her predicted A* /A grades fall through no fault of her own. She was motivated to achieve good results but a lack of any consistent teaching in sciences made this an impossible task.
Ill leave more feedback after results day!
Whatever grades she achieves I was delighted to find Claire and cant thank her enough for her support and professional no nonsense tutoring!

Claire was excellent. My daughter went to Claire for extra help leading up to her Year 10 GCSE Science AQA exams. She missed the first one in January so had to sit them both within a week in June. She got on really well with Claire and her confidence was really boosted even with the school mucking us around with which level GCSE she was actually sitting! In fact, my daughter felt that Claire explained things much more clearly than her teacher at school so she had a lot better understanding of parts of the syllabus that she had previously struggled with. We will find out her results at the end of August but are hopeful that she did well. She will definitely get better marks than if she had not had lessons with Claire!

My son has really benefitted from Claire's tuition. On her advice, he retook some papers and his grades improved significantly - from a C to an A in one of them. Her teaching style is both structured and focussed, which has led to a much better exam technique which he can use in future exams.

Excellent teacher

We visited Claire during the school holidays to judge what type of input my daughter required after her spending a year 10 in sciences at the local grammar school with weak teachers, so organization and understanding was poor and her confidence was low. After just one session with Claire, she was already more confident and her enthusiasm was coming back for the subjects. Claire has a systematic approach to learning, covering the syllabus efficiently & patiently so the student is able to develop good understanding of a topic before moving on. She has also motivated my daughter so far. She is very keen to continue with Claire's tutelage if she has the time.

Claire has been wonderful, really professional. My daughter really enjoys her lessons and now feels much more confident about her A level exams. Thank you so much Claire, so glad we found you.

After my son had several science tutorials with Claire , he did very well in his pre gcse science tests. His teachers are now thrilled and we have a positive momentum. Claire has made huge improvements to his understanding, knowledge and confidence. The one to one has obviously helped him but he understood Claire more easily. Also Claire's attention to detail, lesson structure and very good organisation has helped my son.

Claire has been a fantastic teacher. I have enjoyed my extra tuition and have not found chemistry as confusing and as daunting as it originally seemed without Claire's assistance. The lessons are well structured, and time is spent where it needs to be spent most, as she clarifies my queries boosting my self-confidence. I would recommend Claire highly!

Thank you for your time, I am sure you will be able to help Will. He has quite a low opinion of his ability but I know he will become much more confident with your help. Once we get this first week of school over I would like to organise some lessons with you.
Regards
Paula

I found Claire to be very professional, she has helped my daughter in the basics of chemistry which has made a great difference to her understanding of the subject.

I cant praise Claire enough, she completely changed my attitude to A level learning. She took me from low C's and D's in chemistry to A's and high B's in the space of a few months of hard work. Her way of teaching is perfect working through the syllabus and using past paper questions from different sources. She is brilliant and i would suggest her to anyone! Without her help i dont think i would of got into university.

Thank you for the excellent tuition which helped me achieve the A I needed to get into medical school. I really appreciated the thoroughness of your preparation and your clear explanations.

Claire has tutored our son for 8 hours of GCSE Chemistry. He has a much better understanding of the subject now feels more confident and has just taken his GCSE chemistry and is hopeful of good results. Claire was very flexible with her time and took a real interest in helping our son including e mail progress updates. Our son liked her and found her teaching style easy to understand. We would thoroughly recommend her and may use her again for A level chemistry!

Am very happy with the tutoring provided by Claire. The lessons are well structured, professional and very helpful. Highly recommended.

I cannot recommend Claire highly enough. She has taught my son on an intensive basis for the last 18 months. She has taken him from an average B grade GCSE student in Chemistry to being top of the school at Chemistry with straight A projections at A level. Just as importantly she has given him a passion for the subject and a confidence in himself and his academic ability that has changed his future potential. Claire is a person who truly cares about her students. She will take ownership of the task that you give her. She is 100 per cent reliable. THOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED

Claire has been an enormous help to my daughter.
She finds the tuition has boosted her confidence and ability to cope with upcoming exams.

Claire was very organized. She clarified the syllabus and helped my daughter to structure and apply her knowledge effectively. Claire had a huely positive effect on my daughter's approach to chemistry.

Very impressed with Claire, very organised and I am sure it will be of great benefit to my daughter

I was extremey interested in Claire tutoring my son and was ONLY put off by the distance we would have to travel to reach her. There was slight confusion over some wording on the site which implied she would travel to us. I thought she sounded an excellent tutor, just what I was looking for.

My daughter only had Claire's tuition for a comparatively short period as Claire was frank with us that more personal tuition was not really necessary. Claire came across as helpful, friendly and capable.

A rare gem and a force to reckon with in academics. She challenges your intelligence and aptitude to its maximum limit and urges your curiosity on in Chemistry.

My son is more motivated to learn and his undersan tdisng is significantly greater as a result of his contact wit Calire Hiliard. Thank you.
