Yvonne is a very patient and effective tutor. My teenage boy who "would rather learn computer languages than human languages because human languages don't make sense" actually likes her lessons! That's an achievement in itself. Yvonne is very patient with my son even though he was rather disinterested. She prepares her lessons in advance and rather well as far as I can see. She shows great interest in my boy and tries to make her lessons relevant and interesting to him. She seems to have good understanding of different learning styles and is able to adapt her teaching to different pupils. I am very happy for the results so far - at least my son is no longer resistant to learning Spanish any more. She aIso has great understanding of my goal as a parent, which is to help my son to pass his GCSE Spanish exams. She seems quite familiar with the curriculum and knows what takes for my son to achieve this goal. I would recommend Yvonne to any struggling Spanish language student.
From John
Yvonne has been terrific and patient. She has taken time to understand what we need from the lessons and is producing the lessons to suit this. My wife and I are really happy how the lessons are progressing and would definitely recommend Yvonne to anyone want to learn.

After just one lesson I can say with absolute confidence that Yvonne is a talented teacher. She thoroughly prepared the lesson using a variety of techniques that involved practising listening, speaking and reading and left me with a few tasks to do to consolidate the learning. She has an engaging and relaxed approach that put me at ease from the start. As an intermediate learner of Spanish with very limited experience of speaking Spanish I was a little nervous at first but this quickly dissolved. I am a teacher of many years and I recognise excellent teaching when I see it. If you are looking for a teacher of Spanish, look no further.
From Sheila
Yvonne is very kind, capable, experienced teacher. The interesting lessons are exactly suited to my needs.
From Morium
I would certainly recommend Yvonne, she has been very enthusiastic teaching GCSE Spanish. She was able to engage very well with a 16 year old with her friendly approach, often designing the sessions around his interests to encourage interest and engagement. She has been very flexible throughout and her input has been very useful.

First rate. Excellent We had a detailed discussion of my objectives and aims. Yvonne is well organised and was kind enough to visit me and make detailed notes of what I want to achieve. I was particularly impressed with her overall manner she has given me great confidence that I will be able to achieve my objectives with her guidance. The first tutorial will be next Thursday 25th Feb.

I have only had contact with Yvonne via email so far. I had to cancel our first meeting because of ill health. I hope to contact her within the next few days. Alan Grant
