Sandra has been helping my daughter for the last two weeks with her maths (reasoning questions and others). She has many different techniques of teaching and has helped my daughter improve with her maths. Sandra breaks down the question so it's easy to understand. Sandra is very professional, patient, focused and understanding. I would highly recommend Sandra as a tutor.
From Daniel
I am taking GCSE maths again as an adult and decided to find a tutor to support me through the higher tier content. Sandra has a wonderful teaching style, she is very methodical, patient and clear.
It can feel quite daunting revisiting topics that I'd hoped were buried - never to be seen again, but I am grateful to Sandra for being encouraging and providing an environment where I can have fun with maths and make mistakes finding my way to the correct answer.
From Katie
Sandra tutored my son for his GCSE’s from the age of 12. She was so patient and understanding, especially tutoring a stroppy teenager who didn’t always want to engage but she would change her approach and really bring him out of his shell. She was incredibly encouraging and his expected grades were the best he could possibly achieve because of her. She challenged him with homework which he begrudgingly enjoyed and has really helped him on his academic journey. She has also been incredibly helpful with my son who, with her help and advice, discovered he was neurodiverse with quite severe dyslexia and is now receiving help as he transitions to secondary school. She will restart his tutoring once he’s settled and is starting to tutor my daughter who is 13 in Maths and finds it difficult but with her help I know she’ll do the best she can.
From Amy
Sandra has been an excellent GCSE Maths tutor for my daughter over the past two years. She is extremely kind, patient and reliable. My daughter has found her to be encouraging and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Sandra.
From Kiran
Unfortunately a short arrangement due to availability issues from both sides.
From Robert
Sandra has been helping my daughter improve her confidence with maths before taking her GCSE’s this summer. I have listened in to some of the session and it’s been obvious that Sandra has a patient and calming approach to which Rosie is responding well. Sandra often provides praise at the end of sessions which is having a very positive effect on her confidence as well. They have stuck a very positive friendly working relationship which Rosie clearly enjoys.
I am very happy with Sandra’s approach and with the extra previous exam question papers she provides for further revision.
I’m very happy to recommend Sandra if you are looking for a maths tutor,
From Mary
I am really enjoying my lessons with Sandra. She is extraordinarily patient, professional and good humoured. She finds ways to help me remember what I have learned and knows exactly what I need to work harder at. I think she pitches our lessons at an appropria**Contact Detail Removed**vel for me. Most important I believe I am making progress in understanding and speaking Spanish.
From Sylwia
Friendly, quick replay and all set for lessons
From Andrew
Sandra has really been helpful in giving my daughter the confidence to tackle Maths Papers and to realise she can do iit
From Simon
In Spanish tuition Sandra has been reliable, organised and methodical. In on-line lessons I spend much of the time speaking by translating sentences into Spanish, with her correcting grammar and pronunciation. She is a careful and patient listener. She sets homework each week, then provides answers next time so that I can self-mark and learn from any mistakes. Currently we are using material she has pre-prepared rather than a textbook, but she is methodically building my knowledge of Spanish rather than coaching me for a particular exam.
From Katherine
I have had weekly Spanish lessons with Sandra for the last 9 months. I have really enjoyed her lessons and way of teaching. The lessons are very different to school - I feel I am gaining a much deeper understanding of the Spanish language. She is so patient and makes the lessons fun. Tom (Yr11)

From estera
Sandra is an excellent tutor; she teaches my daughter Spanish from scratch. She is very friendly, knowledgeable, organised, supportive; my daughter suffers from adhd and only Sandra can understand and support my daughter with her learning. I would not hesitate to recommend Sandra to other parents. Thank you, Sandra!
From N
Sandra taught our son, age 8 years, several sessions a week over the summer holidays to make sure his maths and English were up to the level required for entry into year 5. I listened to parts of his lessons and liked the way in which Sandra related to him, bringing out in him a stronger belief in himself and a desire to really try. He was very excited after finishing his first lesson and enjoyed all his lessons as Sandra taught the topics in a variety of ways. He realised he was understanding more and I noticed his confidence increased.
From Rosie
My daughter has had tutoring with Sandra over the last year. Sandra has been amazing, working on Maths, English and now 11 plus entrance. On line seems to work really well, they can share their screens re work. Sandra is always very patient and great at explaining, she has a positive attitude which cant help but rub onto the student! Thank You!
From Kyle
An amazing tutor! Very professional and puts everything across brilliantly.
From HELEN
Sandra is calm, professional, patient & a lovely person. She goes that extra mile to find a way of explaining that makes sense to the student. We couldn't have found anyone better to help. In the 18mths that Sandra was tutoring our son, he progressed & gained confidence and moved up a set in school. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sandra & will definitely contact her again if circumstances change. Thank you Sandra!

Sandra has been tutoring our son Ewan for around a year now hopefully towards the 11+. We can see a marked improvement in his studies because of her.

Sandra has really helped my daughter improve her Spanish speaking skills for GCSE and provided helpful resources to continue her progress at home. She has also helped her with her understanding of Maths topics she was struggling with. My daughters confidence has increased with Spanish since having lessons with Sandra. I would recommend Sandra for both subjects. Thank you!

Sandra is a very patient tutor, who works at the pace of your child. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed the sessions and is gaining confidence in maths thanks to Sandra's help and guidance.
From Stephen
Sandra has been teaching Gabrielle for 4 months now and her progress has been amazing. Having missed a year of classes, She has progressed far beyond her friends at school. Gabrielle loves Sandra and is now considering taking Spanish at A level. Sandra is flexible and a lesson finishes when they have covered the subject they set out to. We can’t recommend her enough. Brilliant.
From Mary
I have had 4 lessons with Sandra so far. She is a very good teacher and takes pride in her work and my progress. She has devised a system which has enhanced my small knowledge quickly and simply. I am looking forward to my confidence and skills increasing. As a bonus I have also found that my ability to learn other subjects has improved since studying with Sandra. I would say that I am also learning how to learn as well as learning Spanish. Thank you Sandra.
From Lynn
Sandra has been tutoring my son Spanish for some years now having helped him originally to get through his Common Entrance Exam. Sandra is an incredibly patient and calm person and was just what both my son and I needed. Sandra helped put my son at ease before every exam whilst preparing him well with listening exercises as well as help with reading and writing and help with preparation for the oral exams. Sandra has always very flexible to fit in with my sons long school day which was always appreciated. Sandra has a very positive outlook and her presence in our home always brought a sense of calmness and positivity that was was always appreciated. Would highly recommend.

Calm and supportive approach. She ensures each topic is fully understood before moving to the next one and in doing so our daughter is growing in confidence in her ability and beginning to enjoy maths . Fantastic
From Peter
Sandra has a very calm and patient style that suits me extremely well with my Spansh education. She is well prepared with structure but can flex learning speed to accommodate areas you find straightforward or more challenging. I shall definitely continue working with Sandra as I feel I am making reasonable progress. Sandra, valoro mucho su ayuda. ¡Muchas gracias!

From Caroline
Hi Sandra. The two lessons I have had so far with you have been very useful and I have definately improved a lot. I especially liked doing the speaking practice and putting verbs into practice because I think that my pronounciation is not my strong point. Thanks Alice
From Martin Anthony
EXCELLENT 1st lesson & very proffesional & friendly.
From Juliet
Only second session in but Sandra is able to capture and hold the attention of my boy, he is really enjoying the sessions, not seeing it as remotely "learning" or being "taught" anything, but that she is really helping him get on top of his school work and catch up with his friends
From Lucy
Sandra has not been tutoring my son for very long but his confidence in Maths is already growing. Sandra is very patient, encouraging and really makes him feel good about himself when he has done well. I never thought my son would actually look forward to Maths tuition!
From Mary-Jane
I would just like to say what a difference Sandra has made to my daughters confidence and ability in English and Maths. She has taught my daughter for two years and is a welcome part of our weekly routine now! My daughter really enjoys working with Sandra, as Sandra has infinite patience with her (which I have not!). Sandra has helped my daughter catch up and keep up with her peers at school and has really boosted her self belief and confidence. I would recommend Sandra to anyone with primary aged children who need some extra one on one help. She is kind, caring and thoughtful and brings out the best in my daughter!
From Claire
Sandra has made a real difference in a short space of time. We are more than happy with the progress she has made with the girls and it is great to see such a change in their confidence.
From Amanda
Sandra is very organised and knowledgable. We are a group of three, of varying ages, Sandra makes learning spanish for all of us easy and understandable. She is very encouraging and explains things very clearly. We'll be continuing our spanish lessons for a very long time, as its a very enjoyable, family hobby that we all benefit from.
From Christine
Excellent tutor, my daughter obtained an A at GCSE in Spanish. Also very flexible and helpful
