Kunnali provided superb support during my son`s A level RS. When we started with Kunnali, at the end of year 12, he was predicted C/D from his school and was a reluctant RS student. Kunnali installed enthusiasm, engagement and an in-depth knowledge of the exam content which resulted in an `A` in his exam! I highly recommend Kunnali`s tutoring.

Good communication and made my son (age 15) feel at ease straight away. Helped to boost his confidence and his English and Religious Studies skill levels such that he felt more able to tackle the GCSE`s without feeling they were going to be a complete disaster. He has recently completed the exams and all seemed to go well, which is positive, so it just remains to be seen whether his grades have improved from what he was predicted. Slightly more expensive than some of her competitors but as time and location were good for us it made it worthwhile. Highly recommended
