I contacted Jane for some RS tutoring for my daughter who is due to sit her A-levels this academic year. Jane is an excellent communicator and we got the tutoring set up with very little effort. We scheduled the first lesson for the start of term. Sadly Jane has fallen ill and can no longer provide tutoring for my daughter so I am unable to comment on her tutoring skills.
From Sasha
I cannot recommend Jane highly enough. My daughter is studying for her RS A Level and has had several tutorials with Jane. As a tutor, Jane is extremely competent and experienced and always takes the time to throughly cover all the topics that my daughter requests. It has given me peace of mind that my daughter is getting the extra help she wants and working with Jane has given my daughter much more confidence in her abilities.
Sasha has shown enthusiasm and diligence and she has participated fully in all our sessions . She is a delight to teach and I hope she can carry what we have learned through to the exam, and do herself justice . Jk .
From Karen
Jane is very kmowledgeable about the subjects (a level philosophy, ethics and RS) and develops my daughters knowledge through a range of techniques, adjusted as appropriate for each topic - questioning, informing and debating / discussing. My daughter is responding well to this style of teaching - being treated as a mature person and not being made to feel bad if she has gaps in her knowledge. Jane has been very welcoming as well as flexible / accommodating wrt hours/days of tutoring…
From Marianne
Jane is a supportive and encouraging tutor, whose teaching style was exactly tailored to meet my daughters learning style - really making Philosophy & Ethics come alive with current and topical examples. She achieved more in her six hours tuition than her teacher has in six months!! Highly recommend.
The experience was totally positive and rewarding .
From Clare
Jane is an amazing teacher- I just wish I'd found her earlier. She's friendly but also gets straight into working and was able to identify very quickly exactly the help that my son needed for his AS RE AQA exam. He thinks she has taught him more in 5 lessons than he's learnt all year in school. She's transformed his knowledge and hugely increased his confidence which he's needed being dyslexic. If you want your son/daughter to know what they need to do to pass their RE exam and get excited by the subject get them taught by Jane.
THANKYOU Clare.
From Elizabeth
Jane obviously has good knowledge of Philosophy. Unfortunately, my son needed a more focused approach to the essay writing requirements in relation to the exam board marking scheme.
From Amanda
Jane really helped my son clarify and revise some areas of philospohy and ethics. They were good sessions.
From Fiona
Jane was really excellent. My daughter was struggling with revising for her philosophy AS because of problems with the consistency of teaching at school. There was very little time but Jane established a great working relationship; targeted a few important topics and pitched the tutoring at exactly the right level. My daughter says she learnt lots and is considerably more confident about the forthcoming exams as a result. She really wishes she'd had Jane teaching her for the whole year!
