Claire assisted our family in getting our twins into our top target schools in South London. She is a wonderful 11-plus tutor. We had started with another tutor and moved over to Claire about 6 months before writing. She was friendly and treated both of our girls as individuals. We are so proud of them and thankful to Claire for her guidance and help.
Claire has been tutoring my daughter in key stage 2. She started with my daughter in Year 4 and will continue with her in Year 8. She is friendly, approachable and a great asset to my daughter!
Claire was a fantastic tutor who helped prep my child for our move to the UK. My son is in year 6 and really needed some help with maths and English. Claire was very patient and helped him build his confidence! Thank you, Claire
Claire tutored our daughter in Year 7 while she moved into the Cambridge system in Dubai after relocating for work. Our daughter is excited about her lessons every week and has settled nicely into her new school because of Claire’s assistance and care. Highly recommend!
