'Libby tutored my daughter before her GCSEs, and I can't recommend her highly enough! She is very professional to deal with, knowledgeable about the subject and a great teacher, as well as patient and supportive to the student. She calmly encouraged S and gave her a boost of confidence and skills, which helped her to gain excellent GCSE results. We are so grateful for her and would definitely recommend her to others.'

'Libby has been an amazing support for my 15-year-old son as he works towards his GCSEs.

He has dyslexia, and her understanding approach has made a huge difference to both his confidence and his learning.

She explains things clearly and creates a calm, encouraging environment.

Since starting with Libby, we’ve seen real improvement in his progress at school, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any parent looking for a knowledgeable and effective tutor — especially for a child with dyslexia.'

'Libby began giving our son extra tutoring in Y11 and for approximately one academic year. Though this was an hour of extra tuition once a week, mainly during term-time, our son found it very useful as this helped him improve from the region of grade 4s/5s in Y10 to 7-9s in Y11. It was very helpful in improving specific aspects of the subject which required more help. It also improved his confidence in the subject. The lessons were online but our son found them similar in quality to in-person lessons. There were a range of different activities, resources and homework. Libby came across, as very organised, evident in term dates and times provided ahead of time and lesson plans for the lessons. She was also professional. I also received feedback, some by request and others from Libby's initiative. I would recommend Libby as a good French tutor if you're looking for tutoring for your child.'

'Libby has tutored our 14 year old Olivia for the last 3 years. Olivia did a fair amount of French in Canada, where we lived for a season, enough for her to be too far ahead of her peers starting Y7 when we returned to England. She started Spanish, however we didn’t want to lose her French, and we found Libby. 

Under Libby’s tutoring, an hour a week remote and in person once a month during term time, Olivia just got her GCSE results, a 9. It’s a fantastic achievement for Olivia, and while she did put the work in, there is no way she could have got close to that on her own (we don’t speak French at home). 

Libby is kind, encouraging, easy to get along with, and skilfully made the lessons fun, engaging and relevant.  She set the right amount of homework. She’s a great teacher, and I can’t recommend her enough.'
