Alex has been an amazing tutor for my son building up to his A Levels. His confidence and knowledge has grown immensely in psychology and he has benefited greatly from one to one sessions with Alex. I would highly recommend as a tutor.
From Kate
Alex has been tutoring my daughter for over a month and has made a great difference in a short time supporting my daughter with her A’ level Sociology. She is a very competent tutor, responding to my daughter’s requests promptly and anticipating her needs. She has a friendly approach that is both direct and informed.
Alex made a quick assessment of my daughter’s needs and has been helpful in providing support in the different topic areas and different size exam questions. Alex is very knowledgeable of the exam board requirements and how to maximise marks to achieve the grades. Her flexible approach has meant she has been able to adapt to support with exam preparation using her wealth of support materials.
Alex has been able to personalise my daughter’s learning, that is not always possible in a school class. She has provided challenge with her essay writing that has stretched my daughter and supported her to improve her consistency.
In short she has maximised learning and understanding in my daughter’s weaker areas and provided motivation and encouragement that has been reflected in better test scores and homework grades in preparation for her final exams.
From Chris
Alex is a highly professional and knowledgeable tutor, and we would have no hesitation in recommending her for study and revision sessions. Alex has been helping our daughter Eleanor in the months leading up to her A-level Psychology, and these sessions have improved her confidence and subject knowledge no end. Alex is friendly and supportive, and has found ways of clarifying areas which Eleanor has found difficult, as well as helping her with exam practice and techniques. Alex was flexible and added extra sessions in the weeks before the exams, which has helped hugely, and Eleanor has been able to go into the exams with confidence.
Thank you very much Alex!
Thank you so much for your feedback. I am so glad she has found the sessions helpful - she has been a delight to work with and I have no doubt she will have done herself proud in her exams as she has worked so hard towards them!
From Moira
Alex is an excellent tutor. She has a friendly approach and is very knowledgeable about her subject and the A'Level exam syllabus. She is very reliable, well organised and flexible. My daughter is finding the sessions very worthwhile in terms of boosting her confidence, consolidating course content knowledge and getting lots of practice and direction on how to answer exam style questions well . I highly recommend Alex.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! Your daughter is a delight to work with!
From Sara
Alex has been tutoring my daughter for 2 months so far, and I have been incredibly impressed with her.
I was looking for someone to help build my daughter’s confidence and consolidate her learning at A Level. Alex really listened to my request, and took time to assess the best way to help her. She comes well prepared, has an amazing, positive attitude, and although it is still early days, I am really delighted with what they have achieved together so far.
Thank you so much Sara. Your daughter is an absolute pleasure to work with!
From Lisa
Very impatient about receiving first payment, which was due to her error as she spelt child's name wrong on the invoice, but the very short delay clearly bothered her and she involved the child into this matter by threatening to cancel sessions. Not as easy going as she makes out. For £50 I expect a more professional, polite person.
Hi Lisa. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Unfortunately, your comments are not an accurate reflection of reality. I had a great first session with your daughter but as yet I still haven’t been paid for this. Your emails to me were really rude and unkind, as was the email I received from your daughter’s school. I have been nothing but polite and courteous in all of my communications with you. I would normally deal with the parent/tutee directly - I reluctantly agreed to her school paying for the sessions to help you, however my reservations turned out to be correct. I’m sorry this arrangement hasn't worked out but it certainly is not fair for you to make these comments and attack my professionalism and character. None of my other students or their parents have ever had anything but really positive feedback for me and I regularly go above and beyond for them. It therefore really saddens me that you have chosen to attack me in this way and have felt the need to leave feedback like this.
From Charles
Alex is an outstanding tutor and we are so pleased to have the benefit of her expertise.
From Louise
I have been very impressed with Alex, my son got on well with her straight away and her work with him has improved his confidence with Psychology A Level. I would certainly recommend her as a tutor.
From Heather
Alex has been tutoring my son for the last year. She is a friendly, organised and reliable tutor. Her lessons are well prepared and structured. As she is a teacher in Psychology she is very knowledgable and has a wealth of experience. I am confident that her tuition has improved his A level grade from a C to a possible A which I hope will be reflected in the exam results next month. I highly recommend.
From Kate
Alex was an excellent tutor and really helped to build my son's confidence. Alex was reliable and always positive and he found the sessions extremely useful.
From James
Alex was a brilliant tutor for my daughter on A2 Psychology, covering all aspects of the curriculum and also exam technique. There is no question that without Alex's efficient teaching style my daughter would not have passed her exams. Alex also genuinely cares about the student and is excellent at identifying where problems lie and where more focus needs to be put. I can't recommend her highly enough!
From Kym
Alex is helping my daughter prepare for her Psychology A level exams. Megan loves the way she is being taught and feels that she is getting a much clearer understanding of the subject. Alex is always well prepared and starts the sessions immediately and provides both myself and Megan with advice on how to achieve the best results. I would certainly recommend her as a tutor.
Many thanks for your kind comments. I'm glad Megan is finding the sessions useful!
From Susan
Alex has been very professional and flexible. It is hugely helpful to me that she can teach Cameron in his own home. Alex is currently teaching the syllabus that Cameron is studying so is able to apply that relevant knowledge and expertise to his benefit. Cameron enjoys working with Alex and we hope that his grades will improve as a result of the lessons.
From Helen
Alex was vey reliable and supported Sophie to her first exam at AS level. Alex has a relaxed style and Sophie gained confidence in this new subject. Thank you.
From Clare
Very enthusiastic and confident. Excellent planning of work schedule and what was expected of my son.Felt happy with her advice.
