My daughter has loved working with Jackie as she has the ability to focus on what she needs to know whilst being able to break it down into a format my daughter understands. Jackie puts your child at ease when learning which gives my daughter the confidence to call out any areas she is unsure. I feel this is really important as my daughter can feel a little intimidated asking for help in a classroom school setting. I would highly recommended using Jackie as an English Tutor.
Thanks for the feedback Tammy. She is a delight to tutor.

From Zach
Finding Jackie is without doubt the best thing that we have did to help Zach get though higher English. His level of work and understanding of how to get through the work has improved massively.
Jackie set out a program of work based on Zachs needs, having sampled some of his early work she focused on on his weaknesses and brought him up to the right standard to ensure a solid pass in his final exam.
we would highly recommend Jackie.
Many thanks for the feedback - much appreciated. I am looking forward to hearing how Zac gets on in August, and am feeling very positive for him. Jackie
From Anne
Jackie was able to encourage my son to to do more than he thought he was capable of and had we had longer I think he would have regained his confidence in English that he had lost. I would be happy to recommend her and will use her skills as a tutor again in the future.
Thanks for the feedback Anne. Sean has real potential to do well in English and I would love to work with him again and see him achieve the grades he deserves.
From Gillian
Jackie is a very good tutor. She listens, advises and tries to help make things positive. Our son Taylor really likes Jackie, which makes a big difference. She could go into any environment and make things positive. She is polite, respectful and considerate in manner. How anyone could possibly say it's about colour or race is beyond me. Jackie has advised and helped us on a few issues with our son. No complaints at all. Highly recommended.
Thanks for the feedback Gillian.
From Rosie
Jackie has been tutoring my daughter for 5 months now and i have seen a huge improvement in her. I find Jackie extremely professional and she has such a reassuring and calming effect on my daughter who suffers greatly with lack of confidence. I was upset to read an earlier review which suggested that Jackie might not want to tutor asian people. This could not be further from the truth as i myself and my daughter are also asian and we get on so well with Jackie, i would even go so far as to say that we have become friends. Jackie has given me and my daughter hope for the future, i wish i had found Jackie sooner, she such a star!
Thanks for the feedback Rosie. Vanessa is fantastic and has loads of potential.
From Aneeka
I only had one session with jackie and it wasnt a full session it was less than half an hour because she was late and she had to go elsewhere after. I am sorry to say but i felt she wasn't comfrtable with me wich made me a little uncomfortable maybe because im asian I don't know. And i didn't feel she was very keen on helping my son 6 years old. She did not know what to do with him. Her profile is quite impressive but i feel maybe she was like that just with me.
I am sorry that you felt I wasn't comfortable. It had nothing to do with you being Asian, but everything to do with the fact that I had been driving round the area for over an hour trying to find the place, which as I explained at the time is why I was late. There was also the fact that your husband was in another room and I knew that you did not want him to know that I was also there to discuss you receiving tuition. Broaching a subject like this, knowing that the person in the next room is not to hear, can be a bit tricky and I must admit I did find it awkward, being unsure whether to mention it in front of the children. I have a son the same age as your son and so I knew that he was doing very well academically and would not benefit from being pushed further. I am experienced enough to know that pushing a six year old too much can be very damaging. The issues with your son were not academic, but more about concentration and focus. Morally I felt that it would have been wrong for me to take money regularly from you. It should also be noted that I charged less than half my hourly amount.
From William
Jackie has been 100% reliable and my daughter is very happy with her new tutor.
Thanks William.
