We did not have many sessions with Helen because my child`s requirements changed but she was a kind, gentle tutor; what we needed at the time for a slightly under-confident child.

Helen has been tutoring our year 9 son since mid April 2023 in English. He has said how much she has helped him understand certain topics. This has been noticed and commented on by the school who have said they have seen a huge improvement in his work and grades. We are so pleased and thank Helen for her help. She has been flexible and approachable and taken time to speak to us and our son to ensure he is getting the help he needed.

Helen has been really great with our son, her lessons with him have helped him start to catch up and have a better understanding of his English studies. He has really been enjoying them too which has sometimes been the biggest battle. Helen makes them enjoyable and has kept things at a level & speed that has encouraged him to want to do more & more.

Helen was very professional and always arrived when she said she would. My daughter was really struggling with her English literature and she needed to get above a 4. She actually got a 5 in. Literature and a 7 in her Language. Meaning she could go onto do her chosen subjects at college. Highly recommend her to help your child get the grade they need .
