Mary Clare is well-organised and professional, clearly taking care to provide the best service possible for her tutees. She is able to offer a high level of support across the GCSE triple science courses as well as maths, which really helps my daughter understand and complete her homework as Mary Clare reinforces what has been covered in the classroom and fills in any gaps. Though not the most forthcoming of teenagers, my daughter interacts easily with Mary Clare and finds the sessions fun and useful, telling me herself what she will ask for help with the following lesson. We are very pleased to have found Mary Clare and will be looking to keep her as long as possible! Many thanks from us both.
From Georgina
Clare has been fabulous from the beginning and my teenage son is really enjoying his tutoring with her. I would recommend her 100%
From Jonathan
We are very happy with Mary Clare, after our introductory lesson we feel she is the right tutor to help our daughter, she is clearly very professional and we would recommend her to others.
From Libby
Knowledgeable, professional and caring. Have recommended Clare to other parents several times over.
From Heather
Clare has been tutoring my daughter for A level Maths. She is an excellent tutor who has complete knowledge of her subject. She is very professional, reliable and friendly person who takes time to explain things clearly and thoroughly. She is helping her with exam techniques by looking at past papers and giving her useful exam tips. I would recommend Clare as a Maths tutor.
Thank you for your feedback Heather. It is a pleasure working with your daughter and I look forward to the rest of the year and her good results in the summer. Clare
From Louise
My son and I are very impressed with Mary Clare's A level Physics tuition so far. She is highly knowledgeable, and has been kind, considerate and willing to tailor sessions to his needs and preferences. She is also very approachable and open about what she is covering in the classes. We would strongly recommend her as a tutor.
Thank you for your feedback Louise. I'm delighted that your son is enjoying his lessons and look forward to continuing to work with him. Regards Clare
From Debra
Clare was always very accommodating regarding lessons fitting in around swimming training sessions and various other activities. She inspired confidence in our son in Maths, Chemistry and Physics. He has just got his GCSE results and were are more than happy with them. Chemistry and Physics were a real fear for him having C's in his mocks with predictions of C's as well - came away with B's! A B also for Maths which he was hoping to at least get a C! Clare worked well with our son, she took time to explain everything in full and encouraged questioning on anything. She set homework on past papers which focussed him on the type of questions to expect and ran through them with him to show what was expected. Clare's lessons were on a weekly basis and we have missed her visits since the exams - a very easy person to get along with but at the same time will have that "teacher head" on so that you know where you are with her. Thank you Clare so glad you supported and encouraged our son.
Debra Simpkins
Thank you Debra. It was a pleasure working with your son (and his parents) over the past year. I am extremely glad that he got the results his hard work deserved and I wish him all the very best in Sixth form and beyond. I will miss my weekly visits and in particular the enthusiastic barking from Sally to let you know I was parking. Clare
From Leah
Clare helped our 13year old daughter with her scholarship exams. She quickly ascertained the right level of interaction and instruction to put out daughter at ease and really made a difference to her confidence providing great results. We would have no hesitation in recommending her and hope to use her services again with our younger son.
Thank you Leah. It has been a great pleasure working with your daughter over the last year or so. I was so pleased to hear that she achieved the results she so richly deserved and I know she will do well in the next stages. Clare
From Denise
Clare has been a wonderful help with my sons Alevel maths revision,we are looking forward to seeing her again soon.
From JUlie
Many thanks Clare for all your help advise for Thomas. He really appreciated your guidance and teaching.
From Tony
Clare really helped my daughter gain confidence in maths, and had a very calm teaching style, which helped enormously when exams approached.
It was a pleasure working with your daughter over the past few months. She is a very hard working and committed student, who responded well to all advice and suggestions. I look forward to hearing good results in August. Regards Clare
From Nataschs
Claire has been a godsend and has really made the world of difference to my sons maths skills. She is a really lovely lady and after working with many different tutors we finally found one that worked for us. She knows her subject area very well and more importantly knows and understands how to work with children. Sorry to lose her!
It was a pleasure working with your son over the past few months and watching his confidence grow. I am very sorry that your move means I won't be able to teach him any more. I hope that everything works out well for him in school and with his football. Clare
From Nicholas
I am enjoying my sessions with Clare very much. She is well organised and simplifies my areas of confusion in a clear and concise way. I feel much more positive now and have begun to understand some of the more complex areas which I was struggling with before.
Thank you Jamie. I am really pleased that you have been finding our sessions helpful. I look forward to continuing working with you over the next few months and seeing you achieve the success you deserve. Clare
From Ewa
Clare has tutored my son in maths for a year, preparing him for his GCSEs. She has been an excellent tutor, very competent and professional in every way, with a very clear plan of what to do from the initial assessment right through to the final revision before the exams. My son has enjoyed their weekly sessions (never once has he complained about having to attend a session and that is quite something for a 16 year old!) and said Clare was very good at explaining things. And, well, the results (two As) speak for themselves! Thank you Clare!
Thank you Ewa, It was a real pleasure working with your son over the past year. He thoroughly deserved his grades. Best wishes for the future. Clare
From Sandra
Courtney is enjoying her tuition and seems more positive in her approach to her maths lessons (just hope she can retain the information). I don't feel we have settled into a routine yet but now she is back at school, hopefully we can set a day aside.
