From Janet (5/5): (GCSE Spanish) Although this was quite a few years ago my daughter did very well with her spanish gcse after tuition with Hugh she found him easy to discuss the subject with and felt very comftable with him. From a prediction of a D/E she got a B. Alex is now studying medicine in Lancaster University. Thanks for your help Hugh.

From Joanne (5/5): (GCSE Spanish) Hugh was an excellant tutor, who understood my sons needs completely. He helped george in every area of spanish and in his self belief. When hugh started teaching george he was a grade c student, george gained an A at GCSE this summer. Thank you hugh.

Reply from Hugh: George's performance is testament to what a bit of focused application can achieve when the confused mists are replaced with a little logical clarity through one to one tuition. George persevered and deserved the reward for his efforts.

From Mark (5/5): (GCSE Spanish) Very flexible, good communicator and punctual. Our daughter has improved dramatically in just a few sessions

From Jane (5/5): (Casual Learner Spanish) I am so glad that we picked Hugh as our tutor. His enthusiasm for the Spanish language is catching and his method of teaching is excellent with well constructed lessons. I am particularily enjoying the little bits of trivia he passes on about Spain and tips and tricks for the language. I would not hesitate to recommend Hugh to other adults looking for a Spanish tutor.

From Jayne (5/5): (Casual Learner Spanish) Hugh is very easy to get along with and put us at ease straight away. He explains things very well and will keep going over them until they sink in. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
