Lily's feedback about Miriam (Secondary English tuition near Auckland)

Miriam is an excellent teacher. She always gives constructive feedback to my son after each lesson. I trust her for teaching my son. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a English tutor

Murisa's feedback about Shirley (NCEA Level 1 English tuition near Frankton)

Shirley is lovely and pleasant lady, very efficient and professional. Her lessons are engaging, useful and she is very patient. I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in learning English.

Mike's feedback about Miriam (Primary English tuition near Auckland)

A++++! Miriam has been working with our year 7 boy for six months now and is quite simply fantastic. As an ex-tutor, professional tutor Miriam is the next step up from your everyday tutor seeking extra income. Miriam has a wealth of resources and systems, is disciplined and sets a student plan complete with homework and activities to teach our son. That said however, Miriam switches and supports the at-school work that's taking place when needed. We couldn't be more pleased with the relationship she has with DJ and the benefit he receives. I hope Miriam will be his tutor for many years to come and cannot recommend her highly enough.

Mike's feedback about Ashley (NCEA Levels 2-3 English tuition near Auckland)

Ashley has tutored our year-10 son remotely for 4 months, will continue through the next year and (hopefully) for the rest of his school years. Hopefully his younger brother will also benefit from Ashley's teaching. Ashley is outstanding with her students, allowing flexibility to compliment the in-school studies while also expanding his abilities, writing and thinking. He always been a good, top level student, and Ashley has helped him refine his work, think critically and exceed even more in the IB studies he is doing. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone considering her as a tutor and hope for a long term tutoring relationship with our family. -Mike

Stephen's feedback about Ashley (Secondary English tuition near Dunedin)

We have been extremely happy with Ashley's tutoring. Our son has had Ashley as a tutor for approximately two years even continuing tutoring him **E-mail Address Removed**Meet after she moved cities. Ashley was always punctual and was great at communicating if there was a problem. She was always very accommodating if on the odd occasion an extra session was needed or a change of day/time. Despite English being our son's least favourite subject, he never complained about his sessions with Ashley which says a lot! She seems very good at really trying to get to know the individual and identify how best to help/support them. Our son said "She is passionate about both English and helping her students". He also said "she is very knowledgeable and good at adapting to different learning styles". We would highly recommend Ashley!

Mark's feedback about Miriam (NCEA Levels 2-3 English tuition near Auckland)

David is teaching my 13 yo son English. He is patient, reliable and knowledgeable. My son enjoys the lessons, and certainly, he has improved over time. I would recommend David without hesitation. :)

Titus's feedback about Judith (Primary English tuition near Albany)

Judith was an excellent communicator with fast and reliable responses. We have just had the first class with her and our boy really enjoyed her company in a very nice and comfortable environment and all these make you feel your child is in good hands.
