Sarah has been great with out daughter who is retaking English Language in year 12, she slows everything down and makes sure it is understood as well as giving feedback and letting her have time to give her own opinions and answers. There`s always a few mins chat at the beginning to check in instead of going full force into the tutoring straight away. I`m confident our daughter will get her pass this time around.

I came to Sarah to gain my confidence in speaking English and to remember the grammar that I had forgotten many years ago. Sarah is a very pleasant teacher who likes to help learn English. She quickly understood what exactly I needed to brush up on my English where I had difficulty in my studies. I was always embarrassed to speak in English and with Sarah I saw myself as much more sociable in a foreign language. Sarah gives interesting lessons. With her lessons the time flies so quickly and I feel that I can sit and study for longer.After the lesson I feel full of motivation to keep learning English. I highly recommend Sarah as a teacher.
