Over the past 15 years I have supported 100s of students to excel in their academics and feel confident in their abilities.
Here are some of the happy stories:

"She changed the way my son sees himself as a learner."
Before working with her, my son struggled with confidence in his abilities. He has dyslexia, and traditional school methods often left him feeling frustrated and behind. From the very first session, she recognized his strengths and completely changed the way he approached learning. She introduced strategies tailored to the way his brain works—using movement, creativity, and engaging topics that made lessons exciting rather than overwhelming. Not only has his academic performance improved, but he now believes in himself. He no longer dreads tests; he tackles them with confidence. I can’t thank her enough for making such a difference in his life.
— Sarah L., parent of a Year 8 student

"More than just a tutor—she’s a mentor."
What sets her apart isn’t just her knowledge, but her ability to connect with students on a deeper level. My daughter was struggling with GCSE English—not because she didn’t understand the material, but because she lacked the confidence to express her ideas clearly. Through her sessions, she not only improved her essay-writing skills but also discovered her own voice. The encouragement she received extended beyond the classroom; she learned to trust her instincts, articulate her thoughts, and approach challenges with a growth mindset. This wasn’t just about passing an exam—it was about shaping the way she sees herself as a learner.
— Lucy M., parent of a GCSE student

“Someone who just 'get's' it!”
My son has ADHD, and for years, he believed he just wasn’t “good” at English. Traditional teaching methods never worked for him, and he would shut down at the thought of reading or writing. That all changed when he started working with this tutor. She completely tailored the lessons to his learning style—using visual techniques, interactive storytelling, and even hands-on activities to help him engage with the material. The transformation has been incredible. He now reads for pleasure, writes with confidence, and no longer sees his dyslexia as a barrier. She gave him the gift of believing in himself.
— Rachel P., parent of a Year 4 student
