Passionate primary school teacher with 40 years experience, caring, patient, tailored lessons in home. Also qualified to help with dyslexia

My daughter had one hour weekly tutor sessions with Sylvia during year 6. She was very patient and picked up on areas that my daughter required improvement with and as a result she became much more confident with her English.

Sylvia has been helping our daughter for some time now!
The difference in confidence and knowledge around this core subject has been fabulous.
A great one to one tutor, easy to talk to and flexible.
Highly recommended.

Sylvia has been tutoring my two girls who are in
yr 2 and yr 4 English and maths since October 2019 and I like her systematic way of teaching . She is very professional ,punctual ,organised and most importantly she takes on board what you want for your child and always ready to make any necessary adjustments where need be.

Through out the lock down with the ongoing pandemic she has kept my girls going with her online teaching method which seems to be working Very well and my kids love it.

Sylvia was a great help for my daughter. She spent time researching methods that would really help her and from being reluctant to read anything, she is now eagerly reading books for her age group. More importantly, she has developed self-esteem through Sylvia's encouragement and "yes-you-can" attitude.

Sylvia has shown great care and sensitivity in tutoring my daughter from the age of 10 to 14. She is totally reliable, is open and engaged and wants the best for her pupils, working with them and their parent/guardian, where necessary, to achieve best results. I have no hesitation in recommending Sylvia.

We have found Sylvia to be a very competent tutor to our 11/12yr old son, she has been very patient and caring and really puts an awful lot of thought into the lessons, nothing is too much for her.

Sylvia takes her pupils as individuals. She considers their individual needs and is prepared to research for ages in order to best meet their needs. My daughter (year 5) is dyslexic and was very frustrated. She started with Sylvia 8 months ago and is now doing comprehension work with passages from Dickens and Heaney! Even more important, she now feels confident to read aloud in class and join in activities. Syliva is highly recommended.
