Sandra is very organised and approachable, quickly explaining the content changes for the 2022 summer exams released in February 2022. My daughter is very anxious about her upcoming GCSEs having missed so much of school due to covid. Sandra has successfully increased my daughters confidence and helping her to fill her knowledge gaps.

I found Sandra on tutorhunt and was a bit nervous because I wasn`t sure whether my 14 year old daughter would engage with a tutor online. My daughter got behind in science during the first lockdown when the schools were closed and I wanted to help her catch up. I needn`t have worried. Sandra contacted me before the first zoom lesson, asked what exam board my daughter`s school uses and then told me which chemistry books to buy before the first lesson. My daughter was not keen to do the lesson with Sandra but as soon as it started, Sandra put my daughter at ease and at the end of the lesson, my daughter said `it was good` and that she wanted to `see` Sandra on zoom the following week. From a fairly typical, non-communicative teenager, this is praise indeed! My daughter has had more lessons with Sandra and the feedback I get from my daughter is that Sandra explains everything clearly and makes it easy to understand. Once my daughter has caught up in chemistry, I intend to keep her seeing Sandra so she can catch up in physics and biology. Personally, I find Sandra extremely easy to talk to and it is such a relief to have found someone who can engage my daughter and help her catch up with science. Before finding Sandra, I was really panicking because I can`t help my daughter with science and even if I could, she wouldn`t want to work with me. I was worried that my daughter would never catch up and now I feel much calmer about it. Can not recommend Sandra highly enough.

Sandra is a very good tutor for our 16 year old. She explains subject matter in a very clear concise manner and my son finds he engages with the material from her teaching.
