Our son really wasn’t looking forward to having a tutor but took to Susannah straight away. She was able to develop his knowledge and motivate him at the same time. In just 8 weeks he passed his English GCSE retake. I would highly recommend Susannah.

After receiving low mock results in English language 7 months prior to the real GCSE exam it was my son that suggested we should look into getting him a tutor. Having looked online there were so many to choose from. I found the initial search overwhelming, who would be the best suitor for my son? I came across Susannah’s profile and sent an enquiry, then sat wondering if I was doing the right thing. From the initial call with Susannah I felt at ease. She was friendly, informative and accommodating to times and days that worked for us. Upon our first meeting I knew I had made a great choice for my son. Week after week Susannah was always smiling, welcoming, provided challenging work and set homework my for son to progress further at home. My son has grown in confidence with each month that went by. I can’t thank Susannah enough for her patience, welcoming manner and her ability to keep my son focused and interested over the last 7 months. We would absolutely recommend Susannah to anyone that is searching for a tutor.

Susannah is an incredible tutor, we were so lucky to find her. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed every session and the progress she made in a short period of time was unbelievable. Susannah’s practise as a tutor is exceptional alongside her lovely manner with her students.

Hayden came to Susannah for help understanding exam questions and writing succinct answers, having been somewhat prone to waffling! The lessons were helpful in getting Hayden to focus in the required way. Haydens GCSE results of a 7 and 8 in English (predicted 5/6) are a testament to Susannahs methods which follow the principle of catering for each child’s individual needs.

I contacted Susannah to help my youngest son with his GCSE English language and literature.
Susannah has great knowledge of the subject and syllabus and is always very prepared for each session. Susannah explains the topic really clearly and checks regularly for understanding.
My son had enhanced his vocabulary and has a far better grasp of what is required in his exams than before the tuition. He has gone from predicted grades 4 to achieving grades 6 with predictions of 6 to 7 after a term of tuition. My son has really benefitted from the tuition and I would highly recommend Susannah to anyone looking for tuition in English language or literature.
