Annabel has been amazing with my 5 year old daughter. She took to it straight away and my daughter feels confident and enjoys every session… she always looks forward to going to see Annabel. My daughter has improved so much with her reading in a very short space of time. Annabel is attuned to my daughters needs and what she needs academically which has been very positive. The sessions are different and varied each time which keeps my daughters focus and attention. Can't thank Annabel enough and can't wait to see the progress my daughter will, no doubt, continue to make. Would highly recommend Annabel to anyone looking for a tutor for their child.
Thank you! I love working with your daughter!
From Sarah
My Daughter really enjoys her lessons with Annabel , she’s very shy but was happy to go in on her own during her 1st taster session and even asked if she could go the next day. I get feedback and photos from annabel after each session which is great. You can tell Annabel really loves teaching children and she’s a lovely lady.
Thank you so much - I love working with your daughter!
From Charlotte
Annabel has been absolutely fantastic!!!! I honestly couldn’t be more happier or pleased with finding her. Annabel got to know my daughter before the session via me she asked so many questions to find out what works with my daughter. This is the first time we have got my daughter support and we were worried how she would feel but honestly she looks forward to every session and at the end of every session says THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!! Honestly couldn’t recommend Annabel enough!!! The sessions sound fun! A couple Of sessions in and she’s learnt new things and more confident!!! Thank you :)
Thank you so much! I love working with your daughter!
From kirsten
Annabel established a great rapport with my daughter from the very first lesson. She is very encouraging and always checks in to see if what she is teaching within that lesson, is helpful and what is needed. We have only had a few lessons but definitely plan to continue.
Thank you so much! I thoroughly enjoy teaching your daughter.
From Lauren
Annabel is a kind and helpful person. Who would of been a great tutor for my daughter. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to go ahead with tuition due to a sudden change in personal circumstances but Annabel was very understanding.
Thank you for your kindness and I hope I can help you in future.
From Melissa
Our son has special needs in the form of autism, learning difficulties and a speech sound disorder. In the past learning has been stressful for him and he found it too overwhelming. But Annabell has been tutoring him for the past few months and he loves his sessions and looks forward to them.
Annabell works at his pace, she makes it fun and stimulating for him, gives him lots of praise and encouragement and his abilities have really improved a lot.
We are really glad we found Annabell and so grateful our son gets to enjoy learning!
Thank you so much! I love teaching your son.
From Roshni Sara
I am so glad I found Annabel for my daughter who has ADHD and was struggling with her English writing .The lessons are fun with lots of games and she already made great progress in just a couple of lessons. The lessons are only 30 minutes which works perfect for her because she can’t concentrate for long. The most important thing is that my daughter looks forward to the lessons. I would definitely recommend Annabel to anybody looking for a friendly and patient tutor.
Thank you so much! I love teaching your daughter.
From Arwa
We are lucky to have found Annabel. My son was not keen on English tutoring when I suggested it, but after one meeting with Annabel, he was hooked! He looks forward to the lessons. They are short, fun, engaging, focused and organised to cover particular areas to improve. This was particularly helpful for SATs preparations. We get regular feedback and discuss how to move forward, which helps me and my son keep track of his progress. Annabel spotted my son's interest in creative writing, which brings great opportunities for for him to explore and develop his writing skills.
Thank you so much! I also love working with you son!
From Mohammed
Annabel's classes are very interactive and fun. My 8 years old loves his English classes with her and he says that the class doesn't feel like class. She's truly the best match for my son's character.
Thank you so much - I also love teaching your son!
From Zara
The one word that can describe her would be Amazing. She is energetic and lovely person. My both children are already excited and counting on the days for the next lesson. I am lucky to have Annabel as a tutor!! Thank-you
Thank you so much! Your children could also be described as ‘amazing’ and I can’t wait to continue working with them!
From Lucy
My son is 10 years old, he is in a small primary school setting with the majority of kids in his year well above average. He has some sensory and processing difficulties but nothing to warrant additional assistance. Because of where he finds himself, slightly below average, the biggest impact is his low confidence and opinion of himself as a failure. Finding Annabel with her positive and upbeat approach to teaching has been amazing. We are so lucky to have found her to help with English. My son comes away from the lesson feeling so valued and enthusiastic. Annabel has the rare skill of making others feel good about themselves, so not only does my son improve his skills he feels good about it and keen to do it again. Thank you Annabel
Thank you so much - your son is an inspiration!
From Angie
Lively and bubbly, my children enjoy her sessions very much. Thank you Annabel :)
Thank you - I also enjoy teaching your amazing children!
From Philomena
My daughter counts down the sleeps until her next lesson.
Thank you so much! I love teaching your daughter!
From Michaela
Wow! Maths became interesting and fun for the first time for my daughter. Annabel’s enthusiasm makes the learning process enjoyable, and she had my daughter’s 100% attention throughout the lesson.
Thank you so much! Your daughter is amazing!
From Jez
My son is greatly enjoying learning with Annabel. He said that he wished she was his English teacher at school! She's very lively and engaging and makes learning fun which is really important. I'd highly recommend her.
Thank you so much, I thoroughly enjoy these sessions!
From Chloe
My 8 year old son loves maths, and with us currently trying to home-school both him and his brother, we quickly realised that he was finding the school work too easy. I wanted to find him a tutor who could challenge him while keeping it fun and Annabel has done exactly that. He comes out of his sessions absolutely buzzing and excited for the next one. I couldn't be happier and would highly recommend Annabel!
Thank you so much! Your son is a pleasure to teach!
From Dorota
Annabel is a fabulous tutor. We could not ask for a better one. She quickly recognised my daughter’s needs and accommodates them in every lesson. Annabel creates such a positive and encouraging learning environment. She has made such a huge difference in my DD6 learning experience. Olivia is buzzing after each session and cannot wait for another one. Learning is fun and exciting again. Thank you Annabel!
Thank you so much!
From MAmoona
My son has recently started sessions with Annabale. Being a mother of the kid who didn’t like to write always made me worried how to help him to develop interest in creative writing.
Thanks to Annabale!!! Now my son loves to learn new words and likes the way in which Annabale engage him to think and imagine the scene to put in his words!!!!
At first, I was afraid either online tutoring improve my son or not but now I am so satisfied that my son got best teacher in the world. Can not recommend Annabale enough!!!!
Thank you so much! Your son is a joy to teach!
From Laura
Our 9 year old daughter has had several sessions with Annabel via Zoom over the last few weeks and we are delighted with her progress.
She’s struggled with maths during lockdown and we’ve worried that she may fall behind and become disengaged in maths. We looked for a tutor who could make learning fun and give her 121 coaching to build her confidence.
Annabel has been fantastic from day one, she’s great at communicating with us, been really flexible and has taken time to really understand our daughter. She tailors her sessions, uses lovely, fun resources and our daughter thoroughly enjoys her lessons. Highly recommended!
Thank you - your daughter is a joy and I love every session!
From Winnie
My daughter connected with Annabel very quickly and settle into lessons without any drama. Although only a handful of sessions, she really enjoyed in and always look forward to the next one.
Thank you so much! Your daughter is a pleasure to teach!
From Amanda
Annabel is such a wonderful tutor and a lovely person. My children were immediately taken with her and cannot wait for their sessions each week. You can tell she has a natural ability with children and she genuinely cares about them. Annabel puts in the time needed to figure out what your child needs, and how best to achieve it. I cannot imagine a better tutor than Annabel.
Thank you so much! These children are a joy to tutor and I look forward to seeing them each week.
From Xiaofan
My brother's daughter Manny has several lessons with Annabel for online English tuition. She was a bit nervous as she had never before had a 'real' English teacher from England! Now her confidence grows with Annabel's great help. Annabel has perfect qualiies combining passion, experiences, and responsibility and creativity. We will surely encourage Manny to have tuition with her as she progresses and surely strongly recommend her to friends. Thank you very much indeed.
Thank you so much!
From Angela
My son Daniel has been going to Annabel for tutoring for several weeks to get support with his sentence structure and vocabulary. He is already showing increased interest in his learning and each week really looks forward to his lesson. Annabel’s enthusiastic personality alongside excellent teaching skills have engaged him and shown him that learning can be fun. We are really pleased with Daniels improvement so far and delighted to have found her. We would highly recommend Annabel.
Thank you so much!
From Mariam
After doing a lot of research to have good online English tuition for our 8 year old son, we decided to go ahead with Annable.
She is an amazing tutor! My son looks forward to having lessons with her. She is very organised, hardworking and works efficiently with him. We would highly recommend her.
Thank you so much! I love working with your son as he is such a fabulous pupil and always tries his best.
From Ioana
“Sabri, how was your teacher?” “Amazing!” This was the exchange of words with my son after his first online lesson with Annabel. He feels he has learnt new things and is very excited to continue learning with Annabel. She seems to know what she is doing and is amazing to communicate with.
Thank you so much! 'Amazing' would also be the word I would use to describe Sabri's enthusiasm. I hope I can work with Sabri for a very long time! :-)
From Sabina
We have been really pleased with our daughters tuition sessions, not only is she learning but also enjoying herself. My daughter looks forward to seeing Annabel every week :-)
Thank you so much! I enjoy seeing your daughter each week too!
From Ratheesan

Thank you, Ratheesan, you are a great student!
From Vicki
Hannah seems very settled and keen to learn maths . She always appears happy to go and confident when she returns
From Dawn
Very, very happy! Wish we had found someone like Annabel earlier for our 10 year old son. Had our first lesson. Professional, experienced, gets straight to work and is able to adapt to the child. Great results at the end of the lesson.
From Diane
Amazing Annabel ! What more can i say. When i first spoke with and the next day met Annabel it was very apparent that she is very passionate about her work and her enthusiasm shines through, which really works for our daughter. We have finally, after 3 yrs of looking, found someone who can and is tutoring our dyslexic daughter in a way that she can learn ! Her 1 to 1 tuition is invaluable. I cannot recommend Annabel enough. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. I thoroughly enjoy working with your daughter!
From Lisa
My son has been having online tuition with Annabel for several weeks - he is really enjoying his lessons and is making real progress.
The online lessons are really convenient and have worked very well for us. We would highly recommend Annabel.
Thank you, your son is a pleasure to teach!
From Zarmina
Annabel is organised very easy to approach contact immediately, she is a good experienced tutor had two sessions which went very well she knows what areas of learning needs to be improved very well resourced which is excellent. Friendly person and a good listener too my son enjoy his lessons with Annabel .
Thank you
From Natalie
Annabel has made my daughter feel relaxed in a short time. She inspires confidence in both of us and I hope that this will be a long term relationship!
Thank you so much! I thoroughly enjoyed our first lesson together and cannot wait to continue.
From Marion
Annabel is a diligent and competent tutor. My son enjoys her tutorials and I would not hesitate to recommend her.
Many thanks, Marion. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring your son and look forward to continuing work with him.
From Sorrena
Annabel is an excellent tutor.She takes the time to explain meanings and make sure my daughter has understood before moving on. She is engaging and holds my daughters attention for the whole lesson. I am very pleased and impressed with my daughters progress.
Many thanks, Sorrena. Your child is always very well-mannered and listens carefully when I am explaining something new. She also always tries her best and is truly a joy to teach.
From Shirley
A very professional and super fast response. I'm so impressed with her cognitive skills in being able to handle my 14 year old son, that I have booked her for English Literature!! Most important my son is happy and learning methods, that are not being addressed in a grammar school!!! Finally a teacher that enjoys teaching. 5 stars
Thank you
From Nicola
I was so pleased with my first lesson with Annabel. I was a little nervous and she put me at ease immediately with her friendly nature.
I would recommend her to school students and also mature students like myself, who are lacking in confidence.
I am looking forward to my next lesson.
Thank you so much!
From Hoda
We are glad to have met Ms and would like to thank her for her help and support in teaching my daughter. Annabel is a passionate and organised teacher who made the subject enjoyable and fun. Her dedication and enthusiasm are infectious and it has been a pleasure to get to know her. I would highly recommend her as a tutor.
Thank you
From Sheema
My son has been tutoring with Annabel for a couple of weeks now. He is becoming much more confident with his writing and comprehension and he really enjoys his lessons. Professional and is wonderfully good at teaching. I would highly recommend Annabel
Thank you so much!
From Roisin
My boys ( 12, 11 and 7) have been taught by Annabel for the last 4 months and they have made great progress. They are motivated by her lessons and are always happy to attend. Their handwriting and vocabulary has improved hugely. I thoroughly recommend Annabel as an English/Literacy tutor.
Thank you,
From Tracey
Arranged two appointments but unfortunately I had to cancel because my daughter & I have been ill. Once we are both will again, i will arranged another appointment with Annabel.
Thank you
From Nanouschka
Annabel has been very accommodating in trying to find space in her very busy schedule. My daughter loved working with her and is looking forward to her next session.
Thank you very much. I am also looking forward to this.
From Gulam
An excellent tutor, with a clear passion for the job which can be seen with the way she interacts with my son's. They love going and learning with Annabel and will happily carry on even when the lesson ends : ). I highly recommend Annabel as a tutor as she is bubbly and very welcoming
Thank you, much appreciated!
From Portia
Annabel is enthusiastic and helpful. My daughter enjoys studying for her English GCSE with Her.
Thank you
From Lara
Annabel is CREATIVE. ENTHUSIASTIC. ATTENTIVE.
My very bright 10 year old son recently left school as he found learning in a classroom environment boring, restricting and unimaginative. He is now home-educated and Annabel makes learning fun, exciting and challenging for him. She caters to his individual needs far more than is possible at school and he looks forward to his lessons with her.
Annabel is highly intellectual (significantly over and above her qualifications) with a fantastically positive attitude. She's also kind, passionate about her teaching and most importantly my son really likes her. I wish i'd found her months ago as she fits my 'perfectionistic' ideal of a person whom can successfully facilitate my son's learning ability, and i really look forward to her tutoring Charlie for many years to come. She's an absolute gem. Thank you so much Annabel for being such a STAR and for sharing your time with us to support and further Charlie in his love for learning. I just wish you weren't so busy as i'd be happy for you to tutor him all day long!
Thank you so much!
From Fabiola
Excellent choice
Thank you very much!
From Alex
My daughter is really enjoying her lessons. Annabel has a lovely way with children. Thank you.
Thank you so much! :)
From Wasilewski
Annabel his well organised, very enthusiastic and has helped my son make significant improvements to his work in History A level. He is yet to sit his exam but Annabel has been a great boost and I only wish we had thought of using her help earlier. Thank you.
Thank you!
From Lynn
I can't recommend Annabel highly enough. My son has problems with confidence and his concentration and added to that also has reduced hearing. Annabel has a fantastic way with him, his confidence has grown and he really enjoys his lessons with her. I particularly like the fact that Annabel uses indoor and outdoor games to assist with learning, this is particularly useful for my son's kinesthetic learning style.
Thank you so much! :)
From Cath
Can very highly recommend Annabel, she has been so accommodating and helpful to me and my son with his GCSE English re sit.
Thank you!
From Katherine
My ten year old son has had a few lessons with Annabel and already I can see an improvement in his Maths and handwriting. He looks forward to lessons and as a parent I can clearly see Annabell loves to teach. She is welcoming and extremely patient. I have confidence that more lessons with Annabel are going to greatly improve the areas in which my son needs help.
Thank you very much!
From Ceridwen
Annabel has been a very enthusiastic and informative tutor for my daughter
Thank you!
From Margaret
Annabel has done great work helping my son (AS) sharpen his essay writing technique, structure and style. He's seen a marked improvement and his teachers have too. This had been so good for his confidence. Thanks, Annabel!
Thank you! :-)
From Lorraine
Emily is really happy with the English gcse tuition she has received . Annabel has already given Emily confidence and is excellent at explaining what is needed for the exam Annabel is also very nice to deal with and offers great tuition at a very reasonable rate Lorraine Milton Keynes
Thank you very much ;)
From Behnam
Thank you very much for your kind review!
From Elena
My son had two lessons with Annabel. He finds that her way to explain history is interesting and engaging. He is looking forward to the next lesson. Since our first exchange of emails, Annabel demonstrates competence, professionalism and excellent communication skills, I am confident that my son will make good progresses with her.
Thank you for your kind review. The abilities of demonstrating competence, communication and professionalism are very important for me as I believe good tuition has to be underpinned by good administrative skills. I therefore ensure all parents/students are contacted on a regular basis regarding lessons and progress so students get the most from their lessons with me.
From Lisa
Annabel is a very enthusiastic and engaging tutor. She has quickly formed an excellent working relationship with my daughter renewing her enthusiasm for A level Psychology after a poor experience with her sixth form college teacher. Annabel is making excellent progress each session with my daughter. I am very happy to recommend her.
Thank you very much!
From Anoshamisa
Annabel is tutoring me in A Level Psychology and History and even just from our first session, I could tell that she is a very passionate and knowledgeable teacher. She encourages interesting discussion around the topics, and her professional but personable approach makes learning all the more enjoyable!
Thank you - this student is also passionate which makes teaching easier for me.
From Fiona
Very pleased with Annabel. My son had a traumatic incident at school over five years ago which badly affected his confidence and desire to write. He has since been home-schooled but I can only take him so far. Annabel instantly connected with him and he finds her lessons very enjoyable due to her tailoring them around his interests. I don't think he realises how hard he is working for her. Very happy indeed.
Thank you!
From Jayne
Elise absolutely loves going to her lessons and her reading and writing has really come on. Having these extra lessons has really helped with her confidence going to school and she is much more willing to try and read new words etc. Before she started the lessons she was very tearful and worried about going to school as she was not confident with her reading, she is now like a different child in the mornings and I am very pleased with her progress. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
From Sally
Annabel is very professional and efficient. She connected with my daughter very well and her teaching style is excellent. Skype lessons were new to us but Annabel made the whole process very smooth. We look forward to doing a lot more work with Annabel.
Thank you so much!
From Udoka
Very helpful and informative, far better than my lessons from school!
Thank you very much!
From Kathie
Jake was brimming with renewed confidence in his writing ability after just one session and he is really looking forward to returning. Your friendly, enthusiastic and engaging approach has done wonders for his self-esteem and I would not hesitate in recommending you. Thankyou.
Thank you!
From Tony
Annabel is enthusiastic and thorough in her preparation. We can't wait to start working with her!
Thank you!
From Jane
Have not rated as a 5 purely because my 12 year old son has only had a few sessions, so do not believe that I will fully understand the impact that this intervention has had until he returns to school in the new academic year,
But what I can say is that he sees Annabel twice a week during the holidays and it is not a struggle to get him to attend, and I have. It had to push or even ask that he complete the homework that is set for him, he does it off his own steam and enjoys it, which is in total contrast to school,
My son is dislexic and due to this and bullying from peers who call him 'stupid' or '' he totally lacks confidence, and this has already changed, and he is again becoming engaged with his learning, and therefore beginning to learn again and enjoy it.
Although he is slightly older than the age that Annabel would teach academic wise, it is a suitable level for Sam and her style suits him perfectly,
From Sylvia
Annabel was a good tutor for Skype and she did use resources online. She is friendly and talkative. Her lessons are well planned and interesting.
Thank you very much,
Bel
From Awura-Ama
My daughter went to Annabel for help with History A2. She had been struggling to get good grades in her assessments and had difficulties with proper structuring of essays. I believe she gained a lot from her tutorship and even though this was for only 2-3months it was clear there had been a massive improvement in her style. We are now waiting for her results and are quietly hopeful it will reflect the hard work Annabel put in to get her here. Thanks Annabel and keep up the good work.
Thank you very much for your kind comments! :)
From R P
Annabel has been tutoring my 12yr old son for the past 8 weeks and I am very impressed with his progress. He struggles at school due to behavioural conditions and being on the autistic spectrum. Annabel has a good understanding of the condition and tailors his lessons to suit him. Keeping his lessons fun and giving him lots of encouragement and praise. He has particular difficulties with English, which is what he concentrates on with Annabel. He happily goes once a week completes all his work and come out very pleased with himself. I am very grateful with all of Annabel's hard work.
Thank you. Bel
From Karen
Annabel is a very enthusiastic tutor. She has encouraged confidence as well as conveying the information that was needed. We would recommend Annabel if you are looking for an enthusiastic tutor who makes the learning experience enjoyable.
Thank you so much! I so enjoyed tutoring for you!
From Ajay
Annabel has been very effective in helping my son prepare for his History A level. She plans lessons and provides great supporting material, and keeps lessons interesting. Very pleased with the tuition provided by Annabel.
Thank you very much. This student has always been very conscientious and, therefore, the tuition has really helped him prepare for his exams.
From Wendy
My daughter decided to change AS subjects after the first term and Annabel has given her some intensive tuition over the Christmas holidays to teach her an entire term in a few sessions. My daughter has enjoyed the tuition, feels she is on top of the tuition and Annabel has a natural ability to engage and enthuse and has been a wonderful find. No hesitation in recommending.
Thank you. I've enjoyed tutoring Emma throughout.
From Junko
We are very satisfied with Annabel . She has a strong passion in teaching, and always provide us parents with the useful feedback and target guidance for the student! We are very impressed to see a progress already coming through. That's what we want from the tutor. We are very lucky to have Annabel in our boys' education journey!
Thank you very much! :-)
From Maria Cielo
We are very happy of the way annabel teaches our daughter… The approach is quite good and our daughter is also happy of each session… She is learning a lot from annabel… Will definitely recommend her…
Thank you very much!
From Peter
Annabel is an excellent tutor whose work with my daughter has been superb. I would recommend Annabel to anyone thinking of getting extra tuition for their child.
Thank you. Bel
From James
Annabel has been teaching our son William for a couple of months now and we have noticed a marked improvement in his reading, spelling and phonics. Annabels style of teaching works well with William and he has great fun while learning.
William looks forward to going to see Annabel twice a week and with Annabels help has passed his year 1 phonics test this week with a score of 39 out of 40, something two months ago we would not have thought possible.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Annabel, and will continue to have William, and in the future his younger brother Robert taught by Annabel.
From Melanie
Myself and Melanie cannot thank Annabel enough, for all the help she has given to Jack . She has worked so hard in preparing and tailoring her lessons to meet his needs, encouraging him to think outside the box and exploring suitable revision techniques . We have no doubt that her knowledge and teaching skills has given Jack every opportunity in attaining a good grade with his History.
From Fay
My daughter (year 2) has been tutored by Annabel for the last 2 months, 1 hr per week. She has improved a great deal, her reading flow has really come on, she has moved up a level at school, also with her spelling and phonic sounds. The way in which Annabel teaches, how she structure's her lesson really seem to work, my daughter is always very happy to learn with Annabel. Annabel is very warm and friendly. I have been very impressed by her and would highly recommend her.
