Feedback For Irene (6)

Irene has been tutoring our son (in year 2) remotely by Zoom since his school was closed in March 2020. She has been covering English and Maths with him. She has been patient, enthusiastic, well prepared and very easy to deal with. Her tutoring has made a real difference to our son`s learning during this difficult time and she is highly recommended.

Irene is brilliant, she is very upbeat, positive, enthusiastic and heaps of patience! She is helping my son prepare for his year 6 SATS. My goal was to help him have the confidence in himself to approach the tests without anxiety. I have already noticed a big difference in the way he comes home from school more positive because of the extra reinforcing of topics with Irene. Highly recommended.

Irene is a fabulous personality with a true passion for education. She has a clear desire to seek and drive improvement in both our children. We have a son (11) and daughter (7), both of whom have themselves said that working with Mrs May is fun, although challenging, but ultimately very helpful for them. We know they have seen significant improvements because this has shown in their end of year results and feedback.
Irene is always keeping our kids on their toes and pushing them to excel. This is exactly what we were after in a tutor and anyone that is able to secure her time will definitely see the value of her expertise and experience.
Thanks again for all your hard work over the past year!
