Diane is an extremely dedicated English teacher who is committed to doing the very best for her students. My son has Dyslexia and Diane was extremely helpful, professional and patient with him. In my son’s case she has been quick to identify gaps in his learning; setting a plan on what needs to be taught. She has built a good teaching relationship with him and he feels very comfortable with Diane and her teaching style. Oscar is beginning to feel more confident in his English LiteratureLanguage topics. I wish I had a tutor like Diane when I was in school. We can’t wait for Diane to start tutoring his brother and thank you very much for your endless support Diane. Regards Ed,Rachael and Oscar

Diane has provided excellent support for our 16 year old in preparation for his English GCSE. Our son had a late diagnosis of dyslexia and is being assessed for ADHD and Autism and Dianes approach and style was perfect for him. He really struggles to do any school work but Diane has made a real difference to him. He is much more confident now. Thank you!

Miss Diane is the most helpful tutor I’ve had to date. She has helped me when I really needed even regardless of how late I made an enquiry. She has given me invaluable notes to improve my writing style and teaches clearly to where I can understand exactly what she is teaching. Miss is patient and calming at a time where I had high stress due to my A level exams. I really appreciate the invaluable help miss gave me. Thanks miss!
Tutors Response :
Thanks Esther. I wish you all the best for the future and well done with all your hard work!

Diane has proved to be an excellent tutor. tom was really struggling before he met Diane. Neither school or other tutors had proved able to help him with his reading and writing. For the first time ever tom is actually picking up a book on his own and reading it. Thanks Diane.

Diane has been working with my daughter for 2 months. My daughter is dyslexic and needs support with KS3 English. Diane is doing a great job of making sure the learning suits my daughters learning needs/style but stays at the academic level it needs to be at and progress to. She has built on the positives and taken the anxiety away from the subject.
