Happy Students - Happy Parents

I really like that Vassilia is kind, caring and very understanding. She has helped me improve my GCSE English language in just 4 months. I feel more confident about taking my exams and doing well.

My daughter has a dyslexic profile and she would never have considered A level English possible before meeting Vassilia whose passion has inspired her to make this one of her Further Education (FE) subjects.

Vassilia is an amazing tutor. She is very calm and caring and has brought out the best in our son, who was struggling in a school environment. She is extremely competent in the subject matter and knows and understands the system and exam format inside out.

Just a short note to thank you so much for the excellent tutoring you’re giving Phoebe. Not only are the lessons properly prepared for, but this is the first time that my daughter has actively enjoyed going to a tutor and truly believed that she’s improving. My daughter is gaining confidence in her ability and is feeling motivated about doing her very best. Once again, thank you for your commitment and support.

Vassilia is very professional and it shows in the results she achieves. I appreciate that she works in partnership with parents and subject school teachers. This means her support is coordinated and tutor time is focused to achieve the best results.

Vassilia has been an absolute godsend with helping my son understand and get into the depths of GCSE English Literature & Language. She has inspired in him a belief that he can indeed understand the questions being asked and do well with answering them.

My son’s confidence has soared and his achievement so far in the subjects has gone up by 3 grades in a year! But the best thing for me is that he isn't afraid of these subjects any more and has more interest in the texts he now reads. Thank you, Vassilia!

I feel like I know my children’s ability well and can honestly say that I have noticed a huge leap in confidence in both my son and daughter. Vassilia has a calming and inclusive way of teaching which is very engaging and both my children have improved their study skills and test scores as a result. Thank you for your guidance, Vassilia!

Vassilia has been working with both our sons over the past year. They enjoy English, but are in large classes and get very little one-on-one time at school. She has been working with them to gain more understanding and experience of good study practice, revision and exam techniques and general top tips on how improve their course and exam performance. We quickly saw an improvement in their focus and results (which continues!). Vassilia is incredibly professional, kind, and they really enjoy their sessions with her; there's no question their time with Vassilia is a really good investment.

I enjoy Teacher Time as it feels more free. I am able to ask my teacher questions that I could not ask my school teacher. I am VERY shy, but somehow, (I don’t know how) Vassilia has been able to make me feel comfortable around her. I don't have the same bond with my other teachers as I do with Vassilia. I also think she has boosted my confidence a lot and (unlike school) I actually look forward to to seeing her.
