Clare has really helped my twins through their English Language and Literature GCSE`s. She has really brought out their confidence in English, which has always been a challenging subject. This has been reflected in the improvement in their mock exam scores, and we are certain that their results will be better as a result of Clare`s coaching and guidance. Clare was always happy to help and researched the specific specifications that my children follow, ensuring that her support was specific to each of their respective exam boards (one of which was very obscure). She prepared for lessons and went out of her way to create question packs and agendas, which were extremely helpful. Clare`s manner meant that my children were engaged throughout each lesson, and found her to be approachable. She made sure to focus on each child`s specific areas of weakness and catered respective lessons accordingly. Overall, we feel lucky to have found Clare as she has definitely helped the children significantly improve their English skills.

Tutors Response :

Thank you. It was a real pleasure to tutor both of your children and I also enjoyed the challenge of different exam board content. I wish them both the very best in the future, which I am sure will be successful due to their motivation and positive attitudes.
