I used Hannah when my daughter started Year 10. I can not thank her enough for all her help. The confidence she gave her was amazing and if it wasn’t for her my daughter would not be doing her A-Level now. I would 100% recommend her.

Thanks Hannah – your input helped James to get a great result in his literature and language GCSE. You were flexible in following what he was doing in class which really supported his learning. Your enthusiasm for the subject encouraged him to get involved and we were pleasantly surprised by how well the zoom sessions worked.

My 2 sons had 1:1 tutoring with Hannah to assist them in the preparation for their English GCSE. Hannah was a great tutor for them both and this was reflected in the high grades they both achieved. During the sessions Hannah would spend time on either English Language or English Literature, depending upon the needs of the boys. For the English Literature sessions Hannah would focus on individual books. She gave them the guidance they needed to ensure full comprehension of the text in the numerous books, as well as the many characters. She would do this through both written and verbal questioning during the sessions. In addition, Hannah was a great teaching resource for the poems which my boys really struggled with. I am pleased to say that she did give the boys homework which was invaluable, particularly leading up to exam time, as this ensured they completed and practiced exam style questions which she marked and provided constructive feedback on. Lessons were conducted both in person, pre-pandemic, and virtually, and I am delighted to say due to the program Hannah used, the remote lessons were great and worked just as well as those in person. I would highly recommend Hannah to anyone who has a child who is struggling with English or just needs a bit more guidance & confidence in this subject.

I can’t thank Hannah enough for the support she gave Matt to help him achieve his best in GCSE English. The way she discussed questions and texts, and how she encouraged Matt to think about and approach questions gave him the confidence, knowledge and skills he needed to achieve top grades. As a parent I also appreciated how she discussed his nexts steps with me and tailored homework to target areas he needed most support in. Matt enjoyed his lessons with Hannah and always looked forward to them.

Not only did I thoroughly enjoy my English lessons with Hannah, but I also was taught how to be precise and consistent when writing. This helped me in all my other exams as well as achieving high grades in both English language and literature. I couldn’t have achieved this without Hannah’s help and patience, as well as her persistence in always pushing me outside my comfort zone!

I would highly recommend Hannah and her English tutoring. We contacted Hannah after a recommendation from a friend whose son had Hannah as an English Tutor and were delighted she had a space we could slot in to. A year before his GCSE exams our son was struggling with his English. Grammatically, his English wasn’t too bad but in terms of structure, range of vocabulary, spelling and inspiration for writing he struggled. He was however confident and eloquent in speaking. He started with Hannah and felt immediately comfortable discussing and sharing what he was working on at school with Hannah contributing, coaching and guiding him in the right direction and setting him tasks to do in between each lesson. He made positive improvements week by week and looked forward to his sessions with Hannah, not just for her support and tutoring but her lovely nature, listening and empathy. Unfortunately his GCSE’s were cancelled but we were delighted that he achieved a grade 5 through his course work which enabled him to continue to A levels and he received a Merit in his Verbal presentation which was brilliant. Hannah certainly gave him more confidence in his writing, structure, and ability to read and answer questions which enabled him to achieve his target grade and for that we are delighted. I would highly recommend Hannah for all ages as a tutor who is trustworthy, highly professional, with a personal nature those of all ages can relate to and feel comfortable with.

Hannah has helped both my sons with their English. Firstly, my eldest son during him being in Year 11. The confidence and individual attention encouraged him incredibly. Thank you Hannah! My younger son has difficulties as he is dyslexic. Hannah has been amazing with her patience, skills and developed him to achieve to the best of his ability.
