I have been instructed to leave feedback by first tutors inorder to transfer the finders fee. We have not had lessons from Claire so can not comment on teaching. Communication difficulties prevented us from progessing.

From Claire
Claire has been fantastic for the five months that she has been tutoring my daughter on A Level biology. We feel very lucky to have found her through First Tutors. We were very apprehensive about using on-line tutoring, believing that as being unable to meet in person and form a bond, was second rate compared to face to face tutoring, and also actually believing the tutor is who they say they are, and does, actually, hold the qualifications and relevant job position they say they have in their online profile. Using First Tutors has given us the confidence and peace of kind that we are working with a qualified, genuine tutor and expert in their chosen field.
Claire could not have done more to put my daughter at ease, help her, support her and specifically adapt her style of tutoring, to suit her best suited style of learning.
Claire responded immediately to our inquiry and as soon as we all spoke together we knew she was the right tutor. She was professional, friendly, kind and confidence boosting, immediately relating to my daughter, and building a relationship with her. Claire has worked with her over the last four months boosting her confidence, increasing her knowledge and understanding of her A Level biology course. She has also worked especially hard at encouraging and strengthening her retention levels by looking at different ways of approaching the tutoring and delivery of the course material. Claire has been wonderful.
Claire is very professional with her time-keeping, always fulfilling the booked slots and goes out of her way to find slots that work with my daughter’s available times, including weekends, evenings and in the holidays. She goes the extra mile to find the time that works for her student.
One of the most important qualities about Claire is that she is not just a biology teacher, but also Head of Sixth Form, and a mum, with a young family. She therefore understands how young people and teenagers work, think, function and the support and guidance they need to learn, feel comfortable, be happy, and fulfil their potential.
Claire is more than just a biology tutor and has exceeded our expectations. The proof of all of this, is that in the five months she has been tutoring my daughter, my daughter’s exam results have increased by 3 grades and she is now positively believing she can attain her needed grades to get onto her preferred university course. This is fantastic and we could not have wished for more.
We are extremely happy with Claire’s tutoring and highly recommend her to anyone seeking excellent profesional biology tutoring with a, second to none, empathetic and understanding approach.
It has been lovely working with your daughter and I know she will do well.
From Gill
Claire has been so supportive during my A level biology tutoring sessions. My confidence is growing every week and I’m glad I found her. Each session she listens to understand what I need help with. Claire is so helpful and approachable. Her friendly approach makes the tutoring experience really enjoyable.
From Nicholas
Claire has been truly amazing for our daughter studying A level Biology. Her approach is excellent for the subject matter and the way it is taught, From the outset our daughter felt relaxed with Claire and has gained confidence. Claire has so much to offer a student. Not only just from subject matter but also, due to her experience in examination marking, she understands what the boards are trying to test. This simply means she has helped our daughter understand where the marks are. Biology is a subject where you can use a lot of words and not hit what is being tested.
Also, Claire identified that our daughter needed extra time for examinations and should be tested. The school tested and indeed our daughter should have been given additional time and will in future.
We cannot thank Claire enough for her professionalism and more importantly caring. She is a credit to teaching and we have no reservations about recommending Claire.
Your daughter works very hard and I have (and still do) love working with her. Thank you for your comments
From Vicky
Claire is really helping my son with A Level Biology. He’s already making visible progress and is a lot more confident. She’s very organised and has quickly identified where he needs support.
From Chris
Claire has really helped my daughter with Biology. Claire got to know my daughter quickly and worked out areas that she needed support with e.g confidence and exam technique. Claire has worked a lot to make my daughter believe in herself and as a result her confidence has grown and she is doing really well.
Claire also has worked out that she can push my daughter and does challenge her in a supportive way which my daughter likes. Claire has gone that extra mile helping and given feedback with personal statements and was very honest and did not accept mediocre which we appreciated.
Claire has developed a great bond with my daughter and my daughter really enjoys her time with Claire. I would 100% recommend Claire.
From Katharine
Claire has given my son excellent help with his A-level biology, clearly explaining parts of the syllabus he was finding tricky and really helping his understanding and boosting his confidence. My son is enjoying these online tutoring sessions. I am very impressed by the way Claire engages my son and communicates the subject in a way that suits him, going above and beyond to give him resources. I can see that Claire is an outstanding teacher and I'm so pleased that my son has her as his tutor.
He is delightful and I am pleased you found me.
From Lorraine
Claire is an excellent tutor. My daughter has seen the impact of her tutoring already and is more confident in tackling topics. Claire is reliable and friendly and has suggested a variety of techniques to assist my daughter's comprehension and confidence in biology.
Your daughter is doing so well. She works so hard and listens to all the advise
From N
We hadn’t used First Tutors before, but had been struggling to find an A-level biology tutor locally so gave it a go. We made contact with Claire and have been very impressed from the beginning. Claire is reliable, experienced and very knowledgeable. My daughter find’s all her sessions extremely useful and positive, and it’s exactly the support we were looking for. Thanks Claire!
Thank you so much. It is a real pleasure

From Sasha
Claire has been a huge help in deepening my understanding of Biology. She is always ready with various resources to demonstrate concepts, and has plenty of experience and knowledge, which is invaluable. I have only had a few sessions with Claire so far, but already I feel much more confident in my ability and grasp of Biology. Thanks Claire!
