Amber taught my son English Language and Literature from Year 9 through to his GCSEs. Throughout this time, he consistently achieved Grade 7s and ultimately achieved an 9 in English Language and an 8 in English Literature at GCSE. What really stood out to us was the way Amber tailored her teaching to suit him. Rather than simply teaching him what to do, she taught him how to think, analyse, and express his ideas in a meaningful and effective way. Her passion and compassion for teaching are truly evident in the way she works with her students. As a parent, I am also incredibly grateful to Amber for being so kind, understanding, and accommodating, especially during difficult or unexpected situations when lessons sometimes had to be cancelled at short notice. I would highly recommend Amber to any student looking for an exceptional English teacher. She has made a real difference to my son`s confidence, ability, and results.

Amber was a great help in overcoming my son`s English literature theory, giving a wide variety of resources like concise quotes for each character and theme, and also focused on my son`s biggest weaknesses to help improve his scores steadily. She also helped my son diversify his ideas for the creative writing in English language paper, helping him refine his ideas and put them on paper successfully. Amber`s deep understanding of the curriculum and exam techniques made a huge difference. Thank you, Amber, for your guidance. I wish you all the best.

Amber has been teaching GCSE Level English to my daughte for several years. She is a great teacher and focusses on building the necessary skills in the student. She has helped my daughter core English skills. My daughter enjoys her classes and always looks forward to having sessions. She finds her explanations very clear and easy to understand. Amber is very polite and flexible with classes. She has been so kind to keep checking with us on my daughter`s results even after her exams. I would highly recommend Amber to anyone considering additional help in English.
