Vicki-MarieFrom Deborah (5/5): My daughter said that she learned a lot in just the first lesson.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you!
From Dan (/5):
From Kate (/5): Vicki-Marie has been very professional in organising the lessons and now my daughter has had her first lesson she is so happy and felt supported and understood straight away.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thanks Kate - what lovely feedback!
From seema (/5): The timings could not be arranged but she is very helpful and communication is great.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Hi Seema, I emailed you multiple times and left messages via First Tutors but you never responded. I'm a little confused about why you have given me a rating of 3/5 when your daughter never actually started tuition?
Kind regards,
Vicki
Kind regards,

From Tavia (/5): Vicki is tutoring my daughter in A level sociology - she is currently in year 12. Vicki is an excellent Tutour who is really professional and has such great knowledge- my daughter is understanding her subject more each week and gaining so much confidence in her work as Vicki explains things to her in a way that makes sense to her- she looks forward to her lesson each week and will be carrying on through the holidays to keep up the momentum.
Vicki listened to everything we needed when we first spoke and when I explained that my daughter is dyslexic that was also fine which was very important to me.
We will be continuing lessons until the end of year 13 and very much look forward to watching my daughters progress. Thanks Vicki

From Rachelle (/5): I was looking for an A Level sociology tutor for my daughter. I'd never used a tutor before, so wasn't sure where to look and what to **E-mail Address Removed** and came across First Tutors. After reading various profiles I chose Vicki because she has knowledge of 3 subjects not just one and offered small virtual tutoring groups. Vicki soon replied to my inquiry answering my questions and how she planned her lessons etc. Vicki also offered extra sessions during the Easter half term break, covering various topics. Niamh was able to attend 2 x 1 hour sessions a week, recapping year 12 and 13 work in each session. Niamh found it helpful working with other students and to be honest it was a really cost effective way to cover 2 years of work. I would often overhear Niamh in her virtual lessons and found Vicki to be an enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher who engages with her students. I would recommend Vicki.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you for such lovely feedback! It was a pleasure to tutor Niamh.
From Nicole (/5): Vicki is organised, focus and my daughter loves the simple way she explains the subjects. We are very satisfied.
From Sam (/5): Vicki has been really helpful for my daughter’s a-level psychology. Great communication in all aspects - organising times, payment, feedback, during class. Vicki was very quick to understand my daughter’s needs and flexible when she needed specific support for a topic test and quick to help her meet her needs. Highly recommend.
From Rosie (/5): Vicki was knowledgeable, punctual and engaging and Rosie found her help valuable.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you - it was a pleasure to tutor Rosie!
From Jennifer (/5): Vicki is an excellent tutor. Can not recommended Vicki enough.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you! You are an excellent tutee :)
From Jemma (/5): Vicki has been a great help to me regarding a piece of work for university; she replied really quickly and went out of her way to assist me with a deadline. Her comments were intelligent, clear and helpful. First class tutor
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you Jemma. I hope to work with you again in the future.
From Khalil (/5): Vicki did an excellent job marking the AQA Sociology papers for GCSE. She also gave excellent feedback over Skype, I would thoroughly recommend her for any parent requiring a competent examiner to mark their childrens' papers.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you for your kind feedback.
From Melanie (/5): I can't thank Vicki enough for all the help and support she has given my daughter, during her A-Levels. She has helped to fill gaps left by teachers and improved her knowledge and understanding. My daughter will miss her tutoring sessions.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you for your kind feedback.
From David (/5): Very Very Good
We where left at short notice without a tutor. And Vicki came to our rescue.
Not only has she picked up from where the old one left off. She has moved Alice forward light years.
This has boosted Alice's confidence no end. Thank you Vicki for stepping in.

Just what i asked for, thank you!

Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you Donna. It was great working with you and you will be an asset to the Social Work profession. You're also a very good social scientist!
From Nicki (/5): I had huge reservations about using Skype, much preferring face to face tutoring. However, Vicki was amazing and I needn't have worried. The whole hour was jam packed with teaching that was relevant, helpful and communicated effectively, Vicki certainly knows her stuff!
Spending just one hour with Vicki helped me to understand some of the concepts that I was struggling with for my psychology degree research project, so much so that I achieved 90%. Yes I had to look at it a few times in case I'd misread it!
I would certainly recommend Vicki to anyone and I would without a doubt use her again.

From Katerine francesca (/5): Vicky is an excellent teacher. I was extremely confused and she explained everything in a clear and simple manner. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely be using her service again.
Reply from: Vicki-Marie: Thank you! I look forward to working with you again.
