What do Parents think?

Here are some reviews from the children’s parents

Rated 5 out of 5
“I have used Clare to help my son with his Common Entrance prep. She was absolutely amazing. Not only is she a real teacher who knows how children actually learns and what they need to close their knowledge gaps, but she was also so in-tuned to my son’s learning style, not to mention always kind and with a smile on her face. She made the hard work easy and we are just so very lucky to have been able to work together. My son got to the top schools he aimed for and we remain forever grateful.”

“My daughter Leia (Year 3) loves the lessons with Clare because they are structured in a fun way that encourages imagination. Each session is designed to enrich vocabulary and ends with a beautifully written essay about various topics. There was a noticeable improvement in my daughter's writing only after three sessions and Leia is very proud every time she has used a new word in her writing. After each session Clare provides a pdf summary of the words that have been used in the session, which we find very helpful as we can practice all the words until the next session. ”

“Charlie has clearly enjoyed his lessons with you and we would like to thank you for all that you've done with him. At last week's parents' evening his English teacher said that Charlie is doing really well and he's very pleased with all his work. ”

How It Works

Help Your Child Excel at English

Book a FREE Consultation (Parent + Clare)

My private tuition helps two types of students: 1. Competitive Exam Candidates: Students preparing for entrance exams to schools like those in Southwest or North London. 2. Creative Students: Children who want to build confidence and boldness to enhance their academic and personal success. During your consultation we will spend 30-45 minutes discussing your child and their goals. I'll ask you several questions to gain a deep understanding of your child's situation. With 14 years of experience teaching children, I know what works and what doesn’t. I can quickly identify the gaps that need to be addressed. I won’t hesitate to point these out, so it’s important that you are open to having a ‘critical friend’ in your corner, rooting for your child's success!

Book Your Child's First Tutorial

We can get started once we have confirmed the day and time of the weekly term-time sessions. In your child's first tutorial, I'll carry out an assessment of their skills and confidence to see what is needed to build their path to success. As an experienced former school teacher, my fees reflect the premium value your child will receive—far beyond just an hourly rate.

Feedback for Parents

You'll receive regular feedback on your child's progress with opportunities for adjustments.
