Lydia - Lindsay- English Language - GCSE
Sunday August 2025
Really useful and easy to follow. I learnt lots.
Hayley - xuechun- English Language - IGCSE
Wednesday August 2025
I am Zihao’s mother and I am writing this to thank teacher Hayley for her help to him. In the 2025 May June IGCSE exams, Zihao’s English Language and English Literature results were both A*. Those results were extremely surprising as in the mocks Zihao only got 6s for English. From January 2025 he began studying under Hayley and in just 6 months his ability and confidence increased massively under Hayley’s professional guidance. Thank you very much Hayley for Zihao’s extremely good grades in IGCSE.

Hayley - xuechun- English Language - IGCSE
Tuesday August 2025
My classes with Hayley are wonderful, she focuses on the content and is able to quickly point out my mistakes and give necessary advice for me to improve. She is also very thorough with her teaching and explanations which ensures my English writing skills are solid in all aspects and that I can adapt quickly to different texts. Hayley has played a major role in helping me achieving an A* in IGCSE CIE English First Language in the June 2025 examinations and I plan on continuing classes with her to further improve my essay writing skills.

Charlotte - JACQUI- English Language - GCSE

Charlotte has been an exceptional English tutor for my daughter. With her expert guidance, my daughter made remarkable progress in her English skills, and we were very pleased with her GCSE results. What sets Charlotte apart is her ability to make complex ideas clear and engaging. She helped my daughter build confidence and deepen her understanding of the subject, which led to greater independence and enthusiasm in her learning. Charlotte’s lessons are not only academically effective but also truly inspiring. She creates a supportive environment that nurtures curiosity and self-belief. I wholeheartedly recommend Charlotte to any parent seeking a tutor who brings out the best in their child.
