Sarah was quick to respond to our initial communication. Throughout the introductory stage, she was very approachable and listened to and understood well the reasons why our daughter believed she would benefit from having a tutor. Sarah has given us positive and workable tutoring recommendations. We are extremely happy to have found Sarah.
From Jo
Sarah has supported our young people in preparation for their GCSE English exams. We would recommend Sarah as an excellent tutor. She is very experienced and personable. She understands the specific requirements to sit an English GCSE paper and preparations. Thank you!
From Natalya
Good knowledge of subject.Poor organisational skills.Terminated our lessons without advanced notification.
Unfortunately due to ill health I had to terminate our lessons on Sundays. I was unable to offer an alternative session due to be fully booked during the week.
From Jacqueline
My son has only had a couple of sessions so far with Sarah but communication has been clear and easy. Although Sarah's availability was limited we managed to work out some times for intervention sessions as son's exams are in a few months. He already says he feels more confident in the subject, hopefully this upward trajectory will continue to the exams.
From Barbara
Sarah has been a delight to come into our lives to help our son's confidence and ability in English. She is a very experienced tutor, patient,observant, encouraging and very good in assessing pupil need to tailor the learning accordingly. She is extremely well prepared with materials and plans sessions meticulously. My son is under-confident and not "exam" ready - I am confident after just two sessions, that Sarah will improve his motivation to do better, increase his subject competence, and might even get him to read more!
From Helen
We met Sarah for the first time and were very impressed with her, she interacted with my daughter so well. My daughter is very very shy but Sarah very soon got up a conversation with her. We look forward to Sarah working with my daughter.
From Fiona
Sarah is an exceptional English teacher with a lovely manner. She has expert knowledge of her subject and has lots of practical advice and tips for what examiners are looking for. Her warmth and kindness helped my daughter feel comfortable expressing herself and her enjoyment of English has greatly improved since she's been seeing Sarah. All round 5 stars!!!

From Felicity
We are very pleased with Sarah's work with Sam. His grades have improved and he enjoys English more now. We would like to continue with regular tuition.
From Christopher
Sarah was a great help assisting our son through his English GCSE. She is very knowledgeable of the current curriculum as well as having a great methodical approach to the exams. Our son found her very friendly, patient and in his words " I feel that I've learnt more with Sarah in one lesson than I have all term at school".
From Lisa
Zach was very positive after his first session with you and found you easy to talk to. I feel positive about future sessions and you being able to boost his confidence so that he can achieve the grades he is capable of.
From Sandra
Sarah has identified our daughter's learning needs and communicated with us and school. We hope to continue to see progress.
From Greg
FANTASTIC ENGLISH TUTOR
Sarah has been tutoring our 15 year old son for GCSE English Literature & Language and the improvement has been outstanding. He has gained confidence, writing skills, exam techniques and his mock grades have changed from a D to a high B.
We've found Sarah friendly and very easy to communicate with, she has given us regular feedback and has been communicating with his school teacher to ensure they're working in the right direction.
Cameron cannot speak highly enough of Sarah and is really grateful for the effort she has made to help him.
Highly recommended **Telephone Number Removed**
