Helen has built great rapport with Seraphina in a relatively short time. She is reliable and is extending Seraphina's skills. We're very pleased with our daughter's progress.
Thank you for your feedback. Seraphina has worked hard and is improving in leaps and bounds. I’m happy and pleased that you are too with her progress.
From Priyanka
I am sorry but Helen was not enthusiastic. After releasing her details from agency I had contacted her and ask her availability and gave her convenient time options for us on Friday but she didn’t respond me. May be due to her some personal reasons she didn’t. So I have decided to get a new tutor as I can’t wait to join the lessons soon for my son. Thanks
Dear Priyanka, I just received a message from the site. I’m surprised to receive your rating as I had contacted you prior to the BH weekend. I had mentioned previously we were moving too. I was about to message you today although technicall**Contact Detail Removed**liday (to touch base), a time when I don’t like disturbing people regarding lessons as life balance is important to myself and my clients is important to myself too. I'm sorry it didn't workout, if you'd been honest and clear about your intentions, in that you were trying to plan 3 tutors times this would not have occurred.
I can only assume this rating was out of your frustration and I am sorry you feel this way. My family and downtime is important to me.
Good Luck with your Tutors, wishing your son well in his forthcoming tests.

Thank you Geraldine for your kind words. I have noticed and am pleased to have supported her towards such a huge change in her confidence and ability already. Your a pleasure to work with.

Helen started tutoring our son about 6 months before his 11+ exams. We were very pleased with her service. She had a friendly, patient and encouraging approach and focused on areas he struggled with in his Maths and English too. Our son successfully passed and we know all the practice he got from the turoting with Helen helped him make it.
Thank you Emily. I was so pleased we achieved the pass he needed and deserved. Wishing him well next year.

Helen tutored my daughter for the grammar school entrance exams and general year 5 maths in 2017.
Our experience with Helen was excellent! My daughter really liked her and became much more confident in maths in school immediately. She also passed both the Bexley and the Kent grammar school exams.
I can highly recommend Helen, and if my daughter is not feeling confident about her maths skills in year 6, we'll definitely be looking at more tutoring with her.
From Victoria
We have been very happy with Helen. Eleanor enjoys her lessons and benefits for a different perspective in explaining concepts.
From Suzanne
Our very first experience of privately tutoring our children and I have got to say Helen has been amazing!! Kind & calm, using fabulous techniques that work, our children love her and have come on leaps and bounds in both their 11+ and key stage 2 requirements. Very highly recommended. Suzanne, Eltham
From Thi
My daughter struggled with 11+ English and disliked the subject. Since Helen has been tutoring her she has improved significantly which is reflected in her school tests and other 11+ mock tests. She looks forward to every lesson and never wants to miss any of them even when she's feeling poorly. English comprehension was her weakest subject and now it's her strongest! Helen is a fantastic tutor who has a natural way with children. I would definitely recommend.
From Natasha
Helen demonstrates interminable patience and understanding when dealing with my very excitable 5 yr old! She provides solid and valuable feedback on each and every session and I would definitely recommend her :)
From Amarjit
Helen has been an excellent tutor, very warm, friendly and helpful. Both children look forward to her lessons every week.

Helen responded promptly when I contacted her and started almost immediately. Her approach and teaching style is commendable. She is approachable and my daughter is really happy and looks forward to their meeting each week.
From Lucy
Helen is very conscientious, professional and take the time to really get to know your child and what's best for him or her. She is friendly and caring too ;)
From Alex
Helen is an excellent tutor. She has a great personality and she is very reliable. She has a great connection with my daughter and Anthonia loves her very much. I have to say that the results were quite visible even after the second session, Anthonia love to spend time with Helen and she is more confident now with her English and maths. I strongly recommend Helen as an excellent tutor.
From Ricky
Helens professionalism and consideration for my daughters needs was evident from the moment they met. I believe once Helen gets a fair measure of how best she can assist then more formal and structured but continuously enjoyable sessions will be the norm.
From Sandeep
From Lana
We have only just started lessons with Helen for preparation to 11 plus exams, and I can only say that Helen is perfect for my daughter. She is friendly, makes lessons fun and my daughter really likes her.
Creating a friendly and joyful atmosphere during lessons is, to my mind, one of the very important ingredients of successful tutoring because it creates enthusiasm for learning.
I can recommend Helen without hesitation.
