Quite simply, brilliant! My daughter feels she has learned more during five or six sessions with this tutor than over two years in the classroom!!! Extremely clear minded, knowledgeable, well paced sessions with excellent attention to detail and clear focus on pupil improvement.
Thank you. We want success.
From Ruth
Amanda has been such a huge support in the lead up to my son's GCSE English exams. She is conscientious, flexible and understanding. As a tutor she has been very focused and really got to know my sons strengths and build upon them. Where he has struggled she has maintained his focus and developed strategies to enable him to overcome them. I would highly recommend Amanda as a tutor in GCSE English.
Lovely Ruth. Max is a joy to tutor. How lovely.
From Lisa
Excellent tutor, organised and knowledgeable. Very happy!
Thanks Janice and glad to be on board. Amanda.
From Taanya
I have not chosen Amanda, as it seems she has a lot on In terms of tutoring! This was my first impression. And the traveling to me would be to much! And as she said, it would be unfair to her. She also would be coming straight from work to come to me for 7:30. On this basis I have made a decision to cancel, rather than start and cancel midway through my child learning.
Kind Regards Taanya
Ah Taanya, you got the wrong impression and you did not reply to my text message when I sent you a text to explain this. I am not sure how you can rate my tutoring 3 out of 5 - I have not tutored your child. On this basis I feel you have judged me and judged me a little unfairly.
From Lourdes
Really good support in the few lessons I've had so far. I am pleased that we can get to an agreement about when to have the sessions. Very happy with the suggestions and homework to practice the exercises of the exam. Grateful about the support offered to go through my homework if sent via e-mail and in case I have any question. Thanks. Lourdes
Thank you Lourdes. I enjoy our lessons.
From Alison
Amanda was very efficient, responding to emails promptly and arriving punctually. She was courteous and organised and suggested a suitable plan of activity for our son who enjoyed her lesson.
I was awarded 4/5 "Thanks Amanda - only reason I gave 4 not 5 was that we had only used you once so couldn't really give 5 rating based on that one experience plus for us issue of flexibility. Totally understand it from your point of view but for us made it a bit difficult."
Unfortunately I am looking for regular weekly students, as this is also my income and I don't want to be cancelled (at the last minute).
From Shaf
I HAVE HAD AMANDA FOR A FEW LESSONS TO DATE AND FIND HER TUITION VERY GOOD. HOPE SHE CAN WORK WITH MY BOYS LONG TERM. SHE IS A VERY PLEASANT AND POLITE YOUNG LADY.
Thank you very much for your feedback Shaf.
Kind regards,
Amanda.
From Samar
Amanda is very efficient, professional, and helpful. In her work I am very satisfied with the tuition thank you.
Thank you very much Alan, I am enjoying tutoring Momin and Hannah. Thank you for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Amanda.
From Vicky
Not reliable. She did not turn up for lesson and given excuses after we paid to release her details.
Unfortunately I was ill with mild flu over the last week, and did not make the Sunday as we discussed. I am currently very busy and have done my best, I did not realise you were 4 miles away and not near a station. I have explained my situation to you, you already purchased my details before I had your address - I was not able to check routes. You wanted to pay for a 1 hour lesson for 1.5 hours travel each way.
I will call FirstTutors tomorrow.
Amanda.
From Shyqyri
She is very good
Thank you, I am enjoying working with Blerti. I have found communication with Mr B very straightforward and as a consequence look forward to helping Blerti to the best of my abilities.
Thank you Mr B.
Best wishes,
Amanda.
Since Feb 2015 Mr B has contacted me with the following message: (Thank you Mr B - I wish all the success): Dear Amanda,
Blerti has enjoyed your teaching and has praised you for your great lessons. However, he is now receiving 10 hours of English revision a week from his school. In addition, he is spending numerous hours after school with his teachers in extra revision sessions. Therefore, I believe Blerti is receiving a large abundance of extra English tuition, so we no longer require the tuition sessions Blerti has with yourself.
Thank you for the help you have given Blerti, teaching him about grammar and the extra use of adjectives, as I am sure that he appreciates the enriching learning he has recieved from yourself.
Many Thanks and Good Luck
From Ateca
Amanda is everything I hoped for in a tutor. She is very focused and was able to accurately assess my daughter's educational aptitude and the areas that required attention. She came fully prepared and would provide detailed feedback after each session. We saw a marked improvement in my daughter's confidence and capabilities. As a result of Amanda's tuition my daughter was moved up to the top set. It is worth noting Amanda gives a lot and expects a lot from her students. I would strongly recommend Amanda to other parents.
Thank you very much, I am very grateful for your feedback and very glad I could help.
Thank you again,
Amanda.
From Jennie
Amanda is very focused on the child's needs. She takes time to investigate what is needed to plan an interesting lesson.
Thank you Jennie, I really enjoyed working with Gabriel and meeting you and your family. Very best wishes, Amanda.
From Sandra
Both I and my son are happy with your approach and dedication to tutoring. Your knowledge of the English subject is detailed and in line if not better than the school's teaching. You are punctual and willing to put in extra time at no extra cost. Following a programme and plan of study/tutoring to pick up on weaknesses (based on your initial testing of his ability) is beneficial as well as being guided by the student/parent.
My son will be sitting his GCSE's this summer and I'm confident that your input will result in him achieving a higher grade than predicted.
I would use your services again for my son and/or my daughter if necessary.
From Serena
From Michelle
Amanda is the best person that I have ever met. She is a excellent tutor too. She is reliable, fun and very kind person. My English has already improved. I really enjoy to have lessons with her.
I am happy to hear that your English has improved and let this continue! Warm wishes, Amanda.
From Atul
Amanda is the probably the best thing that has happened to my son. Her approach to tuition is full of empathy and energy which makes my son comfortable as well as pushes him towards higher levels. Amanda is always thinking about her students and actively experimenting with lesson to make to perfect it for my son. The most remarkable help, apart from intense effort that Amanda puts in the tuition sessions, is the extra useful material that she keeps sending for my son to work on. I am very confident that the levels of my son will rise in near future.
Thanks Amanda for all the effort you are putting it. Really appreciate it.
Thanks so much for your feedback, Atul. I am really enjoying the work and glad to help. I look forward to next lesson. Amanda.
From Kwasi
Amanda has just began tutoring my son towards his GCSE and he's already shown great interest and enthusiasm. He can only hope for the best so he says. Thanks Amanda.
Thank you Kwasi. Your son has a great attitude to study. Look forward to restarting lesson in January. Kind regards, Amanda.
From Khin
Amanda is a very good private tutor. My child's spelling and grammars has improved a lot since attending lessons with Amanda.
Thank you very much for saying this Khin. I am enjoying tutoring Kelvin and reading Kelvin's stories.
From Long
She is good tutor
Update Feb 2015: Jefferson has received offer from top school. Very well done.
Thank you Mr Long, I am very pleased that Jefferson is working so hard in lessons, and find Jefferson's lessons very enjoyable. I look forward to seeing you both next weekend.
Kind regards,
Amanda.
From Norah
Amanda has a teaching me… Benefit from the lessons very much. I would recommend to deal with because it's a great deal and teaching… Thank you Amanda
Norah, thank you very much for your comments. It was a real joy teaching you, and I will miss not teaching you in the future. Best of luck with your teaching and further English studies, and hope to hear from you if you are back again in England.

Amanda.
