Testimonials

Teacher Bev is an exceptional English tutor with a rare gift for teaching in a way that truly stays with her students. She helps them internalise frameworks and language, so their understanding goes far beyond memorising content. My eldest son achieved a distinction in English for his GED, and I know this result is directly linked to her tutoring. His writing improved from average to genuinely admirable, and both my teenage sons now use English terminology naturally in conversation — a clear sign of both confidence and enjoyment of the subject. Teacher Bev is also deeply professional and fair. She is committed to her lesson times and does not charge for weeks or months when lessons don’t take place, which speaks volumes about her integrity. She is a true star, and any student taught by her is receiving teaching of the highest quality.

Bev successfully guided my son to achieve a great result in IGCSE English. Bev has a gentle and nurturing approach and yet she also manages to be firm in training her pupils to be disciplined in keeping to a schedule. Her study notes are excellent and a great resource for final exam preparation. English was one subject that I didn’t have to worry about because I had every confidence in Bev’s ability and methods.

Bev took my son through the English IGCSE curriculum and prepared him to write the exam. She helped him to understand the necessary concepts, provided relevant homework and excellent feedback, and responded promptly to his queries. She was always pleasant, professional, organised and diligent, and she helped him to achieve a high grade. We were very satisfied with her teaching and service.

Our daughter's use of English vocabulary and writing improved in leaps and bounds in the short space of a year under Bev's teaching. She felt encouraged and supported which inspired confidence to learn and adapt to the new curriculum, having moved from CAPS to Cambridge. Her and Bev both celebrated her fantastic IGCSE exam results and she now has a solid foundation set for AS this year.

I highly recommend Bev as an outstanding English tutor for IGCSE level English. She has a remarkable knowledge of the syllabus, of past exam papers and of the Cambridge approach to English. Lessons are exceptionally well-planned, clearly delivered, engaging, informative and efficient. My son, who has dyslexia, grew significantly in his confidence and written language skills under Bev’s gentle and clear instruction. He moved from being a reluctant writer to having a much more positive, ‘I can do this’ approach for which I am eternally thankful! Bev’s summary notes and feedback for each lesson are also incredibly thorough and helpful. If you are looking for an online English tutor for IGCSE English, I would recommend Bev in a heartbeat!

Bev is a teacher who is kind, compassionate and invested in her students. Bev was willing and able to adapt to our son’s learning style when he was struggling in certain areas and was both supportive and firm as she took him through each aspect of the IGCSE English exam papers.
