Sarah taught my daughter, Francesca, GCSE combined science for a year. This was one of the subjects Francesca really struggled with but because of Sarah's support and guidance she was able to pass. Sarah was always very kind and patient and gave Francesca a lot of confidence.
From Adrian
Sarah has a lovely vibe and she’s very easy to get on with. She breaks down hard topics into understandable chunks and tells processes like stories making it easier to remember them. She makes me comfortable when I don’t know answers and helps when I’m struggling on current and past topics. Overall she’s extremely helpful and I would definitely recommend her. From Neave - year 13 student.

Omg! Where shall I start! Sarah is the best biology tutor who is very dedicated, caring, full of enthusiasm and knows her subject content. My son has worked with Sarah for 11 months before sitting for GCSE exams. He excelled!!
At the end of year 10, I contacted Sarah. As a mum I was very concerned about my sons biology grade who achieved a grade 5 ( July 2021).
We started tuition immediately at the end of July 2021 . But apprehensive as it was online and my son likes f2f. We tried the first lesson and he loved her teaching approach.
Oct 21, we had a progress check discussing his predicted grades for his first set of GCSE mocks on Nov21. It was difficult for Sarah to predict, but she indicated it would be good if he achieves a grade 6, 7 might be a street as my son had lots of learn.
His dedication towards biology, grasping the key skills and knowledge on how to answer questions he managed to attain a grade 7 which was really impressing!
Still working towards his journey towards his GCSE exams, his second set of GCSE mocks in Feb22, he achieved a grade 8 and his final GCSE grade was a grade 9 in 2022.
His biology journey with Sarah was very impressive and unbelievable. He is continuing his A level tuition with Sarah to achieve his heights.
Sarah also tutored my daughter and achieved A grade in her A levels in 2022 from a B in a very short space of time of 6 months trying to cover all the A level content.
I’m really proud of both my children as without Sarah’s guidance they wouldn’t have achieved!
Thank you Sarah!
From Andy
My daughter was very happy with Sarah as a tutor. She found the sessions invariably useful and they related to one another very well. Sarah has extensive knowledge of the A-level biology syllabus and the examiners’ expectations regarding expected answers to exam questions.
From Marie
Sarah tutored our son in A-Level biology throughout Year 13. She delivered weekly sessions online, focusing on the areas where he was less confident. Sarah made a huge impact on his confidence and his learning. He achieved a good grade in his A-level and Sarah's tutoring definitely helped him to achieve this. I would highly recommend Sarah.
From Nina
Sarah has been just what we needed-patient, kind, professional and reliable. My daughter is starting Y11 and needs support with all sciences. Sarah has been accommodating to our needs-our daughter has medical issues- and has been supportive in every way. I very much look forward to continuing to work with her this year. Highly recommended.
From Tracy
Sarah has been a fantastic tutor for my daughter. Over the time she has been attending sessions her knowledge, confidence and interest in Science has increased massively, with a marked improvement in her grades. I would happily recommend Sarah to anyone looking for some extra support for their child.

From Kate
From Kips
Sarah has been tutoring my daughter for approximately a year now. Selina has grown in confidence and is now able to apply exam techniques to all subjects she is studying, not just science.
I feel this is due to the tutoring she has received from Sarah, which is constantly personalised to her needs. The support she receives is not only just during her lessons but any time she needs any extra support.
Sarah is approachable and very knowledgable of examination techniques. She would be an asset to any student who is wanting to gain confidence and see improvements in their grades with the right focus and dedication.

From Linda
As a parent it's always a little daunting trying to find a tutor online. Sarah has ticked all the boxes: great communication, punctuality, interactive sessions but most importantly a son that is developing confidence about his ability. My teenage boy don't say much but after every session he's been so positive. He's happy so we are.

From Belinda

From Desiree
From Karen
Sarah has made a real difference in helping and supporting my daughter through the Combined Science GCSE. She has taken time to understand how she learns and so has adapted her teaching to suit my daughter. She is flexible in that she has tuition planned but will switch if there is something that needs addressing before moving onto the planned tuition. She is patient and friendly and easy to talk to. She covers the content that my daughter is not sure on so focuses on the weaker areas and uses exam practice questions quite early on to drill the techniques required into her and will go back over topics where content may have been forgotten. She also recommends various website to aid learning/practice.
From Sally
Thank you for providing the service we hoped for but couldn’t previously find. We appreciate the timely feedback, the helpful resources and, most important, the growth of confidence that we see in our child.
You are very welcome. This is the most rewarding part of what I do, building confidence and allowing a student to be the best that they can be in Science.
From Grace
Sarah tutored me through my A-level Biology and was absolutely invaluable. My grade improved from an D at the beginning of year 2 to me gaining an A in my A-level which would not have been possible without her excellent tuition. The quality and range of resources she provided combined with her calm and patient manner gave me confidence and lessened my anxieties. I really enjoyed my sessions and would highly recommend her tuition.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with you and was truly delighted in your results. You worked so hard and it was a well deserved grade. You have an exciting future ahead of you!

Sarah's tuition has been excellent. She has helped Neve mostly with GCSE Chemistry but also Physics and Biology too. She has structured Neve's revision making sure Neve felt well prepared for her exams. Neve has really enjoyed working with Sarah and feels the extra lessons have made a huge difference not just to her confidence in her science subjects but to her approach to her GCSE's overall. Thank you Sarah
Thanks for your lovely comments, Lucy. It was a real pleasure to meet you and work with Neve.

It has been great working with Tom this year. He has an amazing inquiring mind for Biology. Really looking forward to working with him again next year.
From Ban
Sarah is a great tutor. She is helping my son prepare for his Alevel Biology exams this year. She has helped him to develop his exam skills in order to reach his full potential. My son appreciates that Sarah is engaging with him throughout the week sending him appropriate material or answering his questions if needs be before the scheduled lesson. Sarah has left a positive impression from day one. Would strongly recommend her .
To see Mustafa's exam technique develop and consolidate his knowledge has been really rewarding for me. It's been great to see it all fall into place for him. A pleasure.
