Our daughter obtained a 9 in her PE GCSE and Joanne was a major factor in that, ensuring she was well prepared for the exam.
From Jane
My daughter had some sessions with Jo in the last few weeks before her PE A level. She found them extremely helpful in covering some areas she was less confident in and doing some exam practice questions. Jo was also able to help her with planning her approach to answering questions in the exams eg timing/planning etc which was helpful in all her subjects. I would highly recommend Jo.
From Jackie
Jo has been supporting my daughter for a few months. She is flexible on times and proactive in ensuing the session are booked in each week. My daughter finds her to be approachable and has been very positive about the resources shared and how adaptable Jo is each week focusing on the topic or task she is working on.
From Richard
Jo has fantastic attention to detail, is approachable and has put our daughter at ease in the run up to her mock A-levels and beyond. She is incredibly supportive and really knows the subject well. I highly recommend her to other pupils studying PE.
From Julie

From Caroline
Jo has supported my son through his recent A’level PE . Jo was very accommodating and reliable at such short notice as we didn’t realise my son was falling behind. Jo is very knowledgeable and understood what was needed to get him back on track. Like many students the structure and specific knowledge with exam techniques was addressed. My son enjoyed his tutoring and definitely felt more confident and pleased with his exam progress.

From Kelly
Jo has been an excellent support for my daughter in the final year of her A Level PE course. My daughter was struggling with confidence and understanding and Jo has helped with both. They have a weekly session online which works really well. I would strongly recommend Jo.
From Molly
Jo has provided some excellent tuition sessions to my daughter for GCSE PE. My daughter’s confidence has really grown during the sessions with Jo and has found Jo friendly, approachable and very knowledgeable. Great tutor and my daughter is looking forward to further tuition with Jo next term. Thanks Jo :)
From Camille
From the beginning the communication has been excellent. Jo is able to fit in around my daughters work schedule. The improvement in my daughters school work has even been noticed by her PE teachers. Her grades have vastly improved. She was struggling and getting upset, if your child is the same do not hesitate in getting a tutor. I can not recommend Jo enough, whatever she does she is getting through to my daughter and we can now see the rewards.
From Sarah
Joanne provided incredible support for our son which enabled him to obtain a grade A for A level PE which was higher than his predicted grade. He is interested in pursuing a career in sport and so this was a huge boost to his confidence and an important step in helping him on his journey for which we are extremely grateful. Joanne has highly effective teaching skills, is very patient, a great communicator and engaged very well with our son. We would highly recommend Joanne as a tutor.
From Emma
My Son felt very comfortable with Joanne and is looking forward to working with her.
From Sarah
Joanne was a professional and knowledgable tutor. Who ended up assisting with both physical education and business A Level. Managing to get the best out of my daughter in the time they had together. She went into the exams more confident and less stressed than previously. Joanne had a flexible approach making planning time slots easy with a young adult with a busy schedule. I do not hesitate in recommending her.
From SUe
We first contacted Joanne for a level support which was brilliant. My son has just completed his first year at uni doing sports coaching and was getting in a panic about assignments. Joanne has continued to support him and has made a huge difference to his confidence. As a teacher myself I have always been impressed by her organisation and planning, she really makes the most of the time and ensures good coverage of material yet is responsive to an immediate problem. Highly recommend.
From Liz
Joanne has been a brilliant support tutor for Toby. She has spent a long time dedicated to filling in the gaps in Toby’s A level Sports Science. He has had intense one to one tutoring with her and quite frankly has probably increased Toby’s grade potential by 2 grades. I would not hesitate to recommend her .
From Helga
Joanne did A-Level PE sessions with my daughter for about 9 months. I honestly can't rate Joanne highly enough! My daughter was constantly singing her praises. Joanne's lessons were well planned, focused, fun and tailored to her needs. She provided my daughter with additional study resources and I could always hear interactive discussions going on. My daughters confidence in PE progressively increased and she actually looked forward to taking her exams. Teachers at school were amazed at how well she was doing. I would highly recommend Joanne!

From Zoe
Joanne, is helping my son Harry who is in his second year of A Level he find her very knowledgeable and is very good at explaining things and very organised, he enjoys his lessons.
From Charles
Joanne was fantastic from the start. We started the same day and she was soon able to identify the relevant areas of strength and weakness.Since then she has been working tirelessly to support my son in a very tight timeframe. Friendly and challenging she finds the perfect blend of putting the student at ease but addresses their weaknesses at the same time. Joanne is an excellent tutor, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
From Ian
Excellent Joanne thank you
From Gabrielle
We were lucky enough to hear about Joanne approx 2 months before our son's A levels began. Joanne very kindly accommodated us as we were last minute in seeking support following a tutor who didnt quite work out for us. Since our son has been tutored by Joanne, he has seemed very very happy. Joanne was immediately able to assess his need, his learning style and his knowledge as it stood. Her patience and her gentle but knowledgeable way of teaching A level PE really suited our 18 year old son. Joanne raised his confidence and the post tutor conversations, where she commented on how well he was doing really did boost his confidence and ours too! As a parent of an 18 year old, you may or may not have expereinced theri reluctance to discuss much with you as a parent - this alongside our lack of knowledge of the content of A level PE, made us feel unsure of how to support our son for the first time in his education (except where maths was concerned!!) Joanne bridged that gap at this crucial time for all us with her intervention and support and if I am honest 'held' all our anxieties… When I asked our son to tell me how Joanne had helped him, he said, " She's really friendly, and very good at explaining things to me, and thorough, as she is good at finding new ways to help you if you don't understand and she just knows what she's talking about". That says it all for us, money and time well spent. Thank you so much Joanne
From Helen
Joanne has been pleasant , efficient and communicative at all times and my daughter's grades have already improved after only a short time with Joanne. I would thoroughly recommend her as an A level PE tutor.
From Leigh
Hi Joanne, Feedback from Madeline is that you make her feel at ease and go at the right pace. You also ask if there's anything you can go over again with Madeline if she's not understood something. Its also useful that you can teach several subjects. Overall we're really happy. Many thanks Leigh
