My daughter is 15 yrs old and has been working with Danielle for a couple of months now on her English and Maths GCSE's. She suffers from extreme anxiety and even attending her classes is a huge achievement for her. Danielle is so patient with her and makes the lessons modern, interesting and enjoyable for her. She is flexible to our requirements and everything is bespoke to my daughters interests. It is still early days for us but I am so pleased to be working with Danielle.

Danielle is a gem! I was extremely lucky to find her **E-mail Address Removed**search 4 months before my daughter sat her exams. Her impressive experience and track record convinced me to contact her. After only few weeks I could see the difference in terms of increased confidence happiness and willingness to do homework. We got our first choice school with a 4 months plan. It would have been impossible without Danielle's plan. Danielle is extremely professional, knowledgeable and nurturing. She made the whole process nerve-free for us. I highly recommend her!!
Thank you Malik. I will miss tutoring your daughter.
From Alex
So far Danielle has been proactive and focused on my sons needs. I am delighted with her approach and attention to detail.
Thank you Alex.
From Kirsty
My daughter came to you at the end of Year 2 because she was in Learning Support for her maths. You have worked with her on and off for three and a half years. During that time she has grown in confidence, enjoyed her time with you and seen guinea pigs being born! She has just received an offer for a place at LEH and her favourite subject at school is maths. We couldn't be more grateful.
Thank you so much for your feedback. I will miss her and I wish her well in her new school. It was a pleasure working with you all :)
From Josephine
I am so happy with Danielles tutoring skills. My daughter loves her lessons with Danielle. I highly recommend her.
From Louise
Danielle was an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout the 8 months my daughter had with her! She performed an initial assessment and quickly came back to us with a detailed plan of the areas where there were weaknesses and how she would work to improve them. Homework was set, marked and fed back on a timely basis and we could see improvements (in both output and confidence) within weeks of her spending time with Danielle. She is kind and patient at all times and always willing to go the extra mile to help where she can, even offering interview prep during the final stages. My daughter absolutely loved her lessons with Danielle (aided by biscuits and guinea pig petting!) and still says she misses her but (thanks to Danielle), she achieved her goal and looks forward to starting her new school soon! If you are looking for a professional but nurturing tutor who will create a bespoke plan of action for you then look no further! She is fabulous!
From Gemma
Danielle is the most patient and nurturing tutor, as we recently went through the 11+ process she has brought out the best in my son without any pressure. Danielle is also incredibly knowledgeable about the various schools’ entry exams and interview process. He achieved places at four highly competitive schools which I couldn’t have imagined when I contacted Danielle with a boy who had lost a lot of confidence. He came out of every session with a sense of such positivity, so much so he was quite sad when we had to say goodbye. Needless to say, my youngest is desperate to start ‘going to Danielle’s house’ which he will be at the start of next year. Five stars doesn’t do Danielle justice!
From Xueyuan
We feel so lucky to have Danielle’s help for preparing my daughter’s 7+ exam. My daughter started with a initial assessment, from which Danielle put together a 10 month plan for her. Through the weekly tutoring, homework marking and several mock tests, Danielle always monitors the progress closely, keeps us informed, and makes sure that we’re on track.
We found Danielle is very professional and pleasant to work with - she’s always there to provide feedback, answer any questions, or email more homework during weekends or holidays.
My daughter enjoyed every tutoring session, and felt encouraged all the time. We can highly recommend Danielle.
From Hannah
Danielle tutored my daughter for about 12 months in preparation for entrance exams at Year 3. My daughter always looked forward to seeing Danielle - was even excited about extra sessions in the lead up the exams. Her progress under Danielle's tuition was extremely impressive. Danielle is warm and engaging but also extremely professional - she gauged the right level of encouragement and set realistic but high standards. From a parent's point of Danielle was approachable and supportive and her communication excellent. She was able to send me relevant extra homework when I asked for it and responded very quickly to all manner of queries and requests. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. My daughter was offered a place at both her first and second choice schools - both of which are very competitive.
From Tola
We cannot recommend Danielle enough. Danielle accepted our request at a very difficult time in our daughter's life. My daughter was very driven to pass her 11+ exams but was also being severely bullied at school. She needed an immense confidence boost to deal with maths which she sometimes found tricky and at the same time retain her excellence with English. I found Danielle extremely professional as she ensured my daughter not only learned what she needed to but also regularly praised her effort. My daughter has now gained admission to her first school of choice. We found Danielle very thorough yet pleasant in her approach. She also gave constructive feedback which included at what schools our daughter would thrive. If you're a nervous parent like me, give Danielle a call.
From Julia
Danielle is the most professional, amiable and skilled tutor/teacher that I have ever met. She has been able to prepare my children for grammar schools and independent schools. Work is completely personalised, targeted and has benefited my children a hundredfold! Nothing is too much. She will spend tireless hours preparing work, speaking on the phone and emailing extra work if needed and has been able to meet our every academic request, including mock exams and teaching Shakespeare! She is worth every penny of the price that she charges and more! Thank you Danielle. We are blessed to have found you.
Thank you for taking the time to give me feedback Julia.

How lucky were we to have found Danielle as a tutor for our daughter!? What a gem! Not only has she absolutely proven her track record of success, but has been such a delight to work with!
Danielle has a lovely, very personable manner and this coupled with her teaching style and methods makes her extremely effective. She is able to very quickly drill down and get the best results out of her pupils by using a bespoke approach, specific to their requirements.
Shyann has come a long way over a short space of time, almost effortlessly. Importantly, she has loved the time spent with Danielle and has truly enjoyed every lesson, which has attributed hugely to her performance.
Thank you so so much Danielle for all your support. We very much look forward to work with you again soon.
Thank you Jassi! It was an absolute pleasure to tutor Shyann.
From Zarmina
Danielle has be tutoring our son for the past 6 months. She has a lovely and kind personality that has worked well whilst tutoring our son. His English has improved significantly getting one of the top scores in his year group in the Autumn exams. She has specifically worked with our son in helping him with his entrance exams for Hamptons, RGS, Reading Blue Coats and Reeds. Although, we are in the process of sitting the exams the advice and support that she has provided is invaluable. She has provided opportunity to sit mock exams to help with exam technique and provides a useful report for any weaknesses. Although, Danielle is expensive, I would highly recommend Danielle as a tutor she is worth it!
From Elizabeth
After only a few sessions I can already see the difference in my child. My child really engages in the session with Danielle, really looks forward to seeing her and always extremely positive afterwards. Always looks forward to the next session, they are always well prepared for and I have found Danielle a delight to work with, very personable and knowledge and am delighted to have found her, can't recommend her enough thank you!
Absolutely happy to help! Thank you for your feedback .
From Susanne
Though we have only had danielle helping our daughter a handful of times so far, the growing confidence is remarkable. Danielle had set the 'level' just right, reintroducing some past but forgotten learnings, in a nice friendly and supportive manner, which means our daughter is now reflecting on the question in hand and evaluating her answer before answering. As a result she tends to get it more right than not, which leads to an increased confidence and, dare I say it, enjoyment in her work.
