My daughter is 8 and in year 3, her teacher notified us that she was struggling with writing in English class. I spoke to her and she confirmed it. Worried mum started searching on line and found tutorhunt. I read the reviews and decided to try it, we found Amanda. Amanda is soft spoken and knew my daughter’s problem, she recommended we buy Bond 11+ English Assessment for 7-8 but my daughter struggled. She then reduced it to 6-7 to boost my daughter’s confidence. We are so happy, my daughter is now in her age Bond 11+ 7-8years and doing great. Amanda praises her every step and we were so lucky to have found a good teacher.

My son has had GCSE English tutoring from Amanda and I couldn`t have found a better tutor! She has helped him by explaining what he needs to do, showing him what it looks like, getting him to try it, giving feedback and then helping him understand how to improve his work. His confidence has improved massively, he enjoys his lesson and has been happy to do homework. Amanda sends high quality resources for him to work on during lesson and between lessons. Amanda is fantastic!

Amanda has intensively worked with my son to prepare him for his English Language and Literature GCSE equivalent exams over a 3 week period. Following the recent lock down it became clear that my son had gaps in his knowledge and was in no way prepared having not had mocks and not thriving with online schooling. Amanda worked with him through the Language and Literature curriculum addressing specific areas and doing a lot of exam revision. At time of writing this review my son is still doing his exams but it is obvious that he feels far more confident in his knowledge and is so much better prepared.

Amanda is a great tutor. Both in terms of lessons organisation (always sending resources and feedback ahead of the lessons) and of lesson content. My kids are not exactly active pupils at school, but Amanda encourage them to participate actively and succeed to keep them engaged during the whole session. She identified and patiently address their weak areas. Coincidence or not, my son got an 8+ in his latest English assessment, so I`m really happy with her tutoring.

My 14 year old son is being taught by Amanda in all areas of English GCSE Language and Literature. Initially, he had little motivation and hardly any confidence in English but, after a short period of time with Amanda, his attitude has completely changed for the better and he tries very hard in English. His confidence has really grown and his standard has improved a lot. Thanks to her professionalism, sensitivity, enthusiasm and her positive approach to learning, she has challenged my son and brought out the very best in him. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a tutor.

Amanda is always encouraging and gives an in-depth guidance on practical exam technique in English Language and Literature GCSE.

Amanda teaches me English Adult Learning and is preparing me for The IELTS Exam. I find that Amand`s method of teaching is very supporting and really helps to make a difference to my progress in English and importantly, to my confidence. Amanda is enthusiastic and thorough in her approach and she tailors all her lessons to focus on what I most needs. She varies the lessons to make them enjoyable but, at the same time, highly productive.

Tutors Response :

Alicja takes classes in English IELTS which involves Speaking, Listening, Reading, Vocabulary and Sentence Structuring, Grammar and Writing Skills. I carefully measure her progress and provide lots of feedback in every lesson. We do interactive exercises in all English skills, we read over all her written work and regularly have tests to ensure that she fully understands corrections made. I always provide interesting listening and reading exercises which include current news and events, inspiring talks and enjoyable stories. Alicja is making pleasing progress in English towards Upper Intermediate Level.

Amanda has the unenviable task of helping a self taught geriatric to go further with her Italian. This she does with skill and sensitivity and deals with all the interruptions from her pupil patiently. Having completed a DuoLingo course, I now have to learn to speak Italian, hindered by a worn out memory. Amanda deals with all the challenges with constructive good humour.

She has carefully set my daughter`s achievement targets and tailors all the classes specifically to what my daughter really needs. Her homework feedback is always of a high standard in all areas of English Language and Literature. Amanda is friendly and patient and my daughter enjoys lessons with her. I would not hesitate to recommend Amanda as a teacher.

Because of lockdown, we can only have a virtual class. Ms Amanda is an engaging and friendly tutor. She listens to my daughter’s needs and can use different resources to help her to learn.

Tutors Response :

Chloe has lessons on line with me in English as a Foreign Language. She came to me at Elementary level with very limited English grammar and vocabulary. She struggled with reading, listening and writing skills. Her spoken English and pronounciation needed a lot of attention.
She works consistently hard during her classes each week and I am really pleased with her progress. She is now tacking all skills with far more confidence
and is making consistent progress every week towards Intermediate Level. Well done!
