I have never understood why French grammar (was taught to me) but can honestly say that I cannot remember being taught English grammar. I was seeing the same situation with my children. Thank you for breaking the cycle. Both children are experiencing much improved school reports

Encouraged to ask questions, encouraged to work hard, and encouraged to achieve!

Combined with great teaching and his hard work all helped him obtain a grade he never ever thought possible (nor did we) he has put to bed his nemesis subject at last.

I have recommended you to so many people already, we will continue to fully endorse all you do.

A thrilled and very proud mum!

Our Personalised Approach

Parent
I think it’s Sam’s last ever maths with you tomorrow! We just want to thank you both for the help over the past 2 years!

Sam is full of praise and says without question she has helped her more than the teacher at school. I am so glad that we came along to you. Looking back I can remember Sam asking why she has to go to extra maths when none of her friends do!

Seeing her confidence grow has been wonderful and never once has she complained about having to go. We are thrilled with her progress.

Many students we meet in these years feel as though they are “drowning” in English. Their confidence is low, and they may have missed important building blocks.

Our process:
Assessment → pinpoints gaps in reading, writing, grammar, or comprehension.
Tailored Plan → tutor designs lessons around strengths and weaknesses.
Flipped Learning → student sets the pace and chooses areas of focus.
Confidence Building → every session is encouraging, interactive, and mindful.

This ensures students don’t just improve academically, but also rediscover their love of learning.
