Claire is a very good tutor, very professional, organised, knowledgeable and patient. My son enjoyed his English lessons with Claire very much and she definitely had a massively positive impact on his attitude to English. Going to an international IB system school, my son found it difficult to tackle exams (in particular writing and comprehension sections of the entrance exams) and therefore lacked confidence. After a few sessions with Claire, he was able to approach the questions more confidently and successfully. Definitely recommend Claire!

Claire is an excellent tutor. She knows exactly what to do in terms of needs of a child. She has got a very wise individual attitude to the student. She taught my two girls. One for 11 plus and another for GCSE. Both were very happy with these lessons. She has taught them really well and the results are very very good. Moreover she is a very intelligent, honest, polite and kind person herself and it was pleasure to meet her. I`ve been very lucky to find her profile on the tutorhunt. I would highly recommend her!!
