Julie is amazing. She fitted my daughter in for last minute tutoring before her Spanish speaking exam. In just a few lessons my daughter went from having little confidence in Spanish to feeling confident and ready to tackle the exam. She came out of the exam saying it went well and she actually enjoyed it. As my daughter says ’Julie can teach, she knows how to make things fun and makes you understand’. We just wish we had found Julie earlier. Julie is a lovely, friendly, fun, amazing Spanish tutor.

Julie is providing excellent support for my daughter who will do her A level Spanish exams this summer. They have focused on identified areas requiring improvement and her command of various tenses and the subjunctive have significantly improved. As a result, she is feeling much more confident regarding the forthcoming exams.

Julie was great - just what our daughter needed as individual support before her GCSE. Daughter got a really good grade, but the most important thing to us was the confidence she had in the run-up to her exams.

Julie couldn`t be a more helpful and understanding tutor. Helped my son achieve a solid 8 in in his French GCSE. Recommended.

Our daughter loves her sessions with Julie, which combine plenty of games and speaking work with more technical aspects of grammar etc. We are definitely seeing the benefits in her performance at school and wouldn`t hesitate to recommend Julie.

Tutors Response :

Thank you so much for your feedback. I am delighted your daughter is enjoying our sessions and she will continue to make excellent progress.

I would thoroughly recommend Julie Thomas as a tutor as she is well organised and good at explaining any French language difficulties. She is well prepared with extra curricular exercises, is patient and as a student I feel that I am making excellent progress.
