Discover what students and parents have to say about their experiences with my tutoring.

From boosting confidence and improving grades to reigniting a love of learning, these stories reflect

the real difference personalised support can make.

"Grace has been a real godsend for our son Daniel.  We were concerned he might not get the grades in English to continue to sixth form, as he's never been a reader and it's always been his weakest subject.  He found Grace's lessons really helpful, right from the outset, and has just achieved two grade 8s, which is incredible progress from where he was a year ago.


Grace's approach was methodical and clear, and he quickly felt he had the tools to do well.  Apart from anything else, we've seen a huge increase in his confidence, not just for English but for all written subjects.  We know these skills will also help him in later life in a variety of settings. Moreover, Grace really connected with him as a young adult, and spoke with him about who he was being more important than just his exam results, which helped him to manage his stress levels through his GCSEs. We're very grateful."

Georgina, Daniel's mum

(GCSE)

"Grace has been tutoring our daughter in GCSE English for the past four months, and we have noticed a significant improvement in her grades on in-school assessments. Drawing on her extensive experience as a top secondary school teacher, Grace conducts focused sessions that target specific areas for improvement. She provides valuable insights and feedback on how to tackle the various GCSE English exam papers effectively, quickly identifying gaps in our daughter's knowledge that need attention and offering tailored guidance on how to address them.

In addition to improving grades, Grace has also helped our daughter build confidence during exam conditions. She has taught her how to answer questions thoroughly to maximise her marks. Grace's advice is always delivered tactfully and supportively, which has been especially beneficial for our daughter. We would highly recommend her as a GCSE English tutor."

Ramona, Henry's mum

(KS3)

"I had the pleasure of being taught by Grace for my GCSE English Literature, and I can confidently say she played a pivotal role in my success. Grace is an incredibly passionate teacher with a genuine love for literature, and it’s this enthusiasm that she brings to every lesson. Her ability to make literature come alive inspired me to dive deeper into creative writing and helped me develop a true love for the subject.

​

What truly sets Grace apart is her unwavering support. She took the time to offer additional help whenever I needed it, always going above and beyond to ensure I understood the material. She didn’t just teach from textbooks—she shared her own life experiences, weaving them into lessons in a way that made them memorable and impactful.

​

Thanks to Grace, I was able to achieve a 9 in my English Literature GCSE, and I wholeheartedly recommend her as a tutor. Her dedication and passion for helping students succeed are unmatched, and anyone who has the privilege of learning from her will undoubtedly be inspired to reach their full potential."

 

Eleanor, student

(GCSE)

"Grace mentored me throughout my English Literature and Language GCSEs.  With her help I was able to achieve two Grade 9s. Her marking of my work was always thorough, providing me with detailed feedback and helpful next steps to help me to progress further. Her classroom was a place that nurtured both me and my ideas. Grace taught me the importance of not just knowing how to please an examiner, but how to write persuasively and engagingly. This is a skill that has been instrumental to my work at Cambridge University. 

​

When I was completing my English Literature A Level, Grace continued to be a dedicated tutor. She motivated me so much and knew how to challenge me in just the right way. Her empathetic yet professional approach was thoroughly effective. 

​

Her tailored support was instrumental to my success — I will always be so grateful for it! I cannot recommend her enough to anyone seeking help with their studies."
