Diane tutored my daughter in the lead-up to her English Language GCSE exams. As a result, my daughter`s grade improved from 3 to 6. Diane is a consistent and practical teacher who is very good at providing constructive feedback without being discouraging. I would definitely recommend her for teaching both English Language and Literature.
Tutors Response :
Thank you! Your daughter put in all the hard work. My job was to explain how to her how to approach the exam questions and I`m really glad that she achieved such good results. All the best for the future.

Diane has been part of a complete turn-around for my daughter in terms of both her confidence and her academic achievement; when we started it was looking like passing her GCSE might be a struggle and now in mocks she is getting 7+. Given she has a few processing challenges this is a HUGE achievement and Diane has been instrumental in turning this around. I am SO GLAD we invested in tutoring with Diane and would not hesitate to recommend her to others.
Tutors Response :
Thank you and it has been a pleasure to work with your daughter and see her grow in confidence. I wish you all the very best for the future.
