Maggie has been tutoring my son Oscar for two years from towards the end of Year 4 up until SATs in Yesr 6. With Oscar, a lack of confidence was a real issue but working with Maggie I have seen him grow and develop in confidence. He now believes in his ability. I think having the one to one time and someone who is patient and encouraging to work with has made a massive difference. Maggie has always tailored lessons really thoughtfully in advance, taking on board the curriculum being followed at school and the areas Oscar has needed most support. We’ll miss seeing Maggie each week an would thoroughly recommend her to others.

A true teacher. Maggie is very friendly, caring, patient and truly tries to meet my child at his specific need. I will definitely recommend her to anyone who would like to improve their child’s learning.

I can’t recommend Maggie highly enough. She really knows children, and how to make them want to learn. The choice to learn in her home instead of ours really helps my son. He looks forward to the work they do together and he will be going to her for as many years as he can. My son looks forward to seeing Maggie and telling her things that he has done well during the week at school. We are so impressed with his progress and confidence, and I love how at the end of each session, Maggie and my son talk about the reasons he should be proud of what he has just achieved. Maggie is exactly what he needs.

Feel incredibly lucky to have found Maggie. She has a lovely manner and engages really well with my sons (who both have very different learning styles). She is very understanding, personable and really knows her stuff. Would recommend without hesitation.

Maggie has a real enthusiasm for teaching which is very engaging for our daughter. She makes learning fun and after only four sessions we can already see our daughters confidence grow in Maths and English. The Zoom lessons have worked really well throughout this second lockdown and keeping the continuity with regular lessons has been great. Thank you Maggie :)

In the short period my daughter has been working with Maggie her confidence has soared. Maggie is extremely positive and encouraging, crucial for a positive mindset towards maths. Maggie provides short home tasks, which my daughter loves completing each week. I highly recommend Maggie to anyone.

Maggie is an excellent teacher. And she is teaching my wife in Adult English and helping my son with his writing skills. Within one month my wife has significantly improved her grammar and writing abilities. Maggie is an amazing teacher and second to none.
In just 2 lessons, my son is on top of his handwriting and enjoys every lesson with Maggie. Maggie is an engaging personality, focused and objective driven, effective, good communicator and has a strong passion for teaching.

I will highly recommend her to anyone who may need her service.
