Feedback For Dalia (28)
Duygu (Mrs)

My son started taking English language lessons from Dalia for his 13+ exams when he was in Year 7 and he successfully got in to the school he wanted. Even though my son is in Year 9 now, he is still taking extra lessons from Dalia because she has built a good teaching relationship with my son and he feels very comfortable with her as well as her teaching style. Dalia is extremely dedicated, very friendly, very knowledgeable and very well organized. Would highly recommend Dalia, she is a wonderful teacher.

I cannot recommend Dalia highly enough. My son`s English grades were around 5 in year 10. At the beginning of year 11, he started to work with Dalia 1.5 hours per week. His GCSE results were a 6 and 7. It is an amazing progress and I do not know where we would have been without her. Thank you very much Dalia.

Dalia tutored my daughter for English and German GCSE and she was excellent. She has a very supportive approach, building confidence with my daughter and really focusing on her areas of need. She communicated well with me and was always on time for the sessions. I would highly recommend Dalia and hope to use her again for my daughters A level German.

Dalia is fantastic, her ability to connect with her pupils is super. Her teaching style is relevant and we have seen fantastic results from the support she has given. My daughters confidence and ability have increased dramatically. Dalia is encouraging and practical using recent tests results to form the structure of the lessons. She has the ability to really bring the subject to life and in turn creates engagement with the subject for the pupil. An excellent experience.

Dalia, is a perfect find and she is very professional and capable of getting results and progressing any child. The 11 plus examination preparation is a challenging milestone. Her lessons are well planned out and targeted to suit to school that your child is applying for. she is also able to offer English Language in preparation for the forth coming comprehension and reading skills. Her personality is very warm and her kindness is a bonus as it creates a perfect relationship for success.
