My son felt very comfortable and at ease with Jo.I feel she gave him the confidence to complete and continue with his studying, in areas he was struggling with.Thank you.
From Elena
Jo prepared my son for his GCSEs in English Language and English Literature. He is scientifically minded, so neither of those subjects was his strong point. Just few months before he had to sit his exams, he got 3s in his mocks. Working with Jo got him from those 3s to attaining a 7 in both subjects in his final GCSE exams, and that's probably all I will need to say about Jo, who has fantastic experience and an amazingly engaging approach! If anyone needs evidence of my son's grades, I would be happy to provide them on request.
Thank you for everything you did for Alex, Jo!
Thank you, Elena, for your very kind feedback. It was a pleasure to work with you and your lovely family; and I wish you all the best for the future.
From Caroline
Jo always goes over time (at no extra charge) to finish what she is teaching and is very knowledgeable about English. She is confidence inspiring too.
Thank you, Caroline, for your kind comments.
From Farida
Very talented and professional. My daughter is very impressed
From Francisca
Jo was very good at approaching my personal difficulties in a fast and efficient way. She rung me before my first session to understand what my fears and issues were. I did not feel anxious upon attending her sessions because she is very friendly and boosted my confidence with my English skills. Her advice was spot on as it led me to smashing my A-Level exams. Thank you Jo! Alex
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I wish you the very best of luck at University,
Jo
From Maria
Jo has been great so far; brings the subject to life and makes it very interesting for the student.
I would not hesitate to recommend Jo as a tutor.
From Jessica
Jo was a great help for Eric in understanding a little more his English texts.
From Debbie
Jo is well-versed in the GCSE English curriculum. She coached my son in both Language and Literature; her position as a board examiner obviously an added bonus. She comes very highly recommended.
Thank you, Jo, for your prompt response and for accommodating our requirements at very short notice.
Best Wishes in all your endeavours and I hope we can work together again soon.
Debbie.
From Simon
Jo has been brilliant in the short time that she has been tutoring our daughter. She has been inspiring and motivating and quickly identified the areas that will benefit the most and each session is looked forward to.
From Caroline
I have been thrilled with the results Jo has achieved with my son Mark. With only a few weeks tuition he passed his English Language GCSE retake.
From Daniel
Very approachable from a parent point of view. Teaches Robert to the required curriculum, sets him the appropriate homework and provides Robert and his parents a debrief after each tutorial.
From Gita
Our son was achieving B's and C's in English at school and had lost his interest for the subject. Jo has rekindled his passion for the subject and the highlight was this week when he came home with a beaming smile and an A in his work. This has rippled through to improved grades in his other subjects as well. We're really pleased for him as you can imagine
Congratulations on the results of your hard work!
From Raef
Jo is an excellent English teacher. Definitely the best one we have had. My daughter improved quickly in a short space of time due to Jo's great support and exceptional teaching.
From Kirstie
Our daughter has had 3 tutorials so far and each one has been brilliant. Jo is really friendly, an excellent teacher and makes each session fun. The increase in confidence in our daughter so far has been great and she looks forward to each lesson. Jo made her feel at ease straight away and really understands her capabilities and how best to teach her. Jo very kindly tells us the lesson plan and progress made each session. We would highly recommend Jo. Overall we couldn't ask for a better start to our daughter's tuition.
Thank you Kirstie. It's so kind of you to take the time to give such lovely feedback.

From Caroline
I learnt so much in just a few lessons. The way in which I tackle questions and structure my essays has improved. I feel far more confident towards my exams which are the next few weeks. Thank you for the help.
Thank you for working so hard! Good luck in your exams.
From Kay
Jo has made a big difference to my daughter's approach to English Literature. She is now much happier with the work she is producing and more confident approaching her AS exam.
Thank you Kay for taking the time to make a comment.
