Elizabeth's Feedback

Elizabeth has given extremely useful guidance and feedback to our daughter. As a result she is now scoring significantly better results in the essays set by her teachers.
Elizabeth continually goes the extra mile, for example marking blind copies of our daughter's mock papers and then separately providing feedback on the differences between her mark and the teachers' marks - this has been hugely helpful.
She does not clock watch as she's more interested in providing an exemplary service than charging for every minute of work she has undertaken for us.
I couldn't recommend highly enough.

Elizabeth excellent tutor. My son finally found a tutor who was able to help, support and guide him so close to his Alevel exams. Thank you Elizabeth

A big thank you to Elizabeth for stepping in to help my daughter when her regular tutor became ill.
My daughter felt very at ease with Elizabeth and she has provided excellent support. Would definitely recommend!

The initial contact with Elizabeth was excellent! Her approach was very friendly and she produced immediately a clear plan .
Looking forward to starting !

Elizabeth is passionate and patience.

During my gap year between high school and university, I decided to take weekly Greek lessons with Elizabeth. I was able to progress through both "Greek to GCSE" books, and halfway through the year, Elizabeth introduced Latin into our lessons and we did both languages concurrently (we progressed to midway through the second "Latin to GCSE" book). We ended the year by reading some short passages from the Odyssey, some Latin speeches/poems, and the opening lines of the Aeneid together.

As someone who had no prior knowledge of either language, I was able to learn comfortably and confidently with Elizabeth's guidance and clear teaching. She is very good at making connections in order to help me learn: connecting vocabulary to English or French, and giving historical context to the exercise passages we would read. The lessons themselves were enjoyable and relaxed. We would usually start by reviewing my homework (translations), then learn the grammar, and then read together. Highly recommend!

Elizabeth tutored my daughter in Latin to help her through the Oxford application process. Her teaching was excellent! All thanks to her my daughter’s application to New College was successful. I definitely recommend her for anyone who wants to apply to Oxford or significantly improve their Latin translation skills. She is an outstanding tutor!

Elizabeth as so far put my sons mind at ease and he looks forward to his next Latin session today.

I am an adult learner and have found Elizabeth to be an excellent teacher. She is extremely knowledgeable and very experienced. I look forward to my lessons very much and she clearly enjoys teaching her subject. Highly recommended!

Elizabeth has been a superb help for my daughter who is studying for her 'A levels.

It's one thing to possess the knowledge, but it takes an entirely different skill to be able to teach and support others and bring out the best of their ability. Elizabeth's command of classics is extensive and is taught in a way which always leaves you with that comfortable feeling of learning. Once complex concepts are made simple and reinforced routinely. Lessons are organised and previous learning is always touched on at the beginning of the next. Additionally, Elizabeth's professional expertise of the main syllabi, improves exam techniques and understanding of the mark schemes, but not at the expense of an enjoyable learning experience. As an adult learner with additional responsibilities, I have improved exponentially in the few months I have had with Elizabeth. I am confident that I will transform my Cambridge offer into a 'firm' place as I have been well prepared under her tutelage. Any student, whether studying for exams or for pure enjoyment of classics, will benefit from lessons with Elizabeth.

An excellent Classics tutor we found first time round whose support was invaluable for my son who had difficulties in his writing. He had not taken Classics before his A'level and Elizabeth tailored lessons and worked on his reasoning skills to gradually build his confidence. Thank you Elizabeth !

Elizabeth started tutoring me when I decided to re-sit my Classical Civilisation A Level having not gained the grade I wanted. She carefully, with empathy and kindness, separated what I already knew into its component parts, helped me add significantly more knowledge, and then showed me how to put it all back together successfully. It was not easy for me yet Elizabeth was firm, fair and incredibly helpful and supportive.
I was delighted to get an A grade this time round and could not have done this without her help. Thank you Elizabeth.

Matiss really enjoyed his first 2 lessons with Elizabeth. He found her engaging and excellent at encouraging him to interact more. The detailed analysis of his work and the feedback was more than he has gotten since he started his A levels. She was quick to pick up on his issues and areas that need more work. Matiss has always enjoyed Classical Civilisations, hopefully with more work, he will also be able to better convey his thoughts and analysis onto the exams.

Elizabeth has been extremely helpful to me in passing my A Levels. Her sessions were brilliant for helping me understand my subject and the exams, not to mention being good fun at the time! She has been flexible, professional and personable and I could not imagine a better tutor.

I am studying A level Latin and wanted some extra support before the AS exam.
Elizabeth was prompt to reply and was flexible about arranging lesson times.
I have really enjoyed the lessons so far - we have covered mostly literature which was what I wanted to do initially. Elizabeth is thorough and patient and I have found the lessons very helpful

We have found Elizabeth to be very professional in all our dealings with her. She is prompt in her responses, flexible and diligent. Our daughter, Daisy has found her easy to communicate with, encouraging, knowledgeable and insightful. We are sure that Elizabeth's assistance with Daisy's Classics studies has proved invaluable and given Daisy greater confidence. We will continue to work with Elizabeth as Daisy moves forward with her A' levels.

Liz tutored our daughter (via Skype) in the run up to her AS Classical Civilisation exam. She came out of the sessions a lot more confident, and a lot calmer, than she had been going in - we couldn't really ask for more than that. She was flexible on timings, and quick to respond to things. Very professional, and recommended.

Elizabeth has been a fantastic help in teaching my son Greek for his university course, and I would highly recommend her as a tutor. Her teaching has been excellent, she is a very thorough and patient teacher, my son has really enjoyed her lessons and Elizabeth has been very helpful in fitting in lessons as soon as needed.

Liz was quick to respond to our request for help on Class Civ A level. My daughter says Liz is able to tackle whatever Class Civ subject area she asks for help in, and Liz clearly has a deep knowledge of the subject. Liz also adapts her teaching style to benefit the student the most. Liz is very friendly and has helped my daughter enjoy the subject. Thanks Liz, we were lucky to **Contact Detail Removed** this website. Mr F, Sevenoaks March 2017

Elizabeth has been tutoring me for my Latin and Ancient Greek A level for the past two months. I have found her to be professional, organised and enthusiastic. She has analysed the areas in which I need to improve, and her lessons are always enjoyable. She is an excellent tutor and I cannot recommend her more highly.

Elizabeth is very knowledgable and her teaching is very thorough. She is interested in what will help me. We have carried out our sessions over Skype as she lives a little too far away from me, but it has worked well. She is very personable and easy to work with. Overall, Elizabeth has been very helpful in my A2 Classical Civilisation studies.
