Vera's Feedback

Vera is a super friendly and helpful tutor, I only had a few lessons with her but from my perspective she was very understanding and throrough. The lessons are structured but also easy going and adaptable. Overall Vera is a lovely tutor!

Vera helped our son prepare for his Geman GCSE.
He has some native speaking knowledge which allowed him to take his GCSE two years early but his writing, specifically grammar, needed a lot of work.
Vera has expert knowledge of the different exam board requirements and provided tailored tuition to prepare our son to succeed in his tests. He received a top score.
We had weekly virtual sessions which worked well. She provided useful material which we could review in between sessions. She expects good discipline from her students which no doubt keeps them focused on the task.
I highly recommend Vera and would be happy to engage her services again.
Thank you Vera

Vera is a great teacher for adult learners at all levels. We are learning French at our office, from beginner to conversational/business level. She tailors her lesson plans to suit her students and her lessons are always fun and engaging. Vera is very friendly and lovely to have as a teacher. I would highly recommend Vera to anyone wanting to learn a new language.

A lesson with Vera is something I look forward to all week. It is the perfect culmination of “me-time”, where you feel very special in the Vera has customised the lesson specifically to you. Through her preparation for the lesson and the fact that she is dressed immaculately, always there for you, it is clear that she treats the lesson with you with seriousness, respect and grace.

She has a rigorous and detailed programme through which she seamlessly guides her students, and takes joy when they are successful. I can’t recommend her enough. I think I have finally found the perfect path to language success, despite my busy schedule.

Vera, thank you!

Vera contacted me very promptly to answer my questions and to make arrangements for our first appointment. I have had two lessons and they have been focussed and targeted to my personal level and to how I wish to learn. Vera is very friendly and easy to communicate with.

My son and I started German lessons with Vera a while ago, we were very happy as she is an amazing and friendly tutor with lots of creative tools and ways of teaching to make sure you understand everything you learn without ever getting bored. Now I feel like I am much more confident in speaking and understanding German and my son has consistently achieved A*s in his year 9 grades with the help of Vera!

Me and my brother both take German lessons with Vera. We have found her to be a brilliant tutor who has really helped us with our language learning. She has tailored our lessons to help us reach our specific goals and is very passionate about teaching language. Very happy to have Vera as my tutor.

Have been taught by Vera for a couple of months now as a casual learner of German. Very happy with the lessons, homework and approach to tutoring.

Vera is warm and approachable, I find her clear and encouraging.

Vera has a good rapport with my son and whilst it is still early days, I'm confident Vera is making a difference to my son's learning.

Vera is a fantastic tutor and already exceeded all our expectations; she has taught my daughter a lot despite only a couple of lessons. She is always very well organised and sets her lessons out in such a way that helps and teaches you a lot. Highly recommend!

Vera has been very helpful in offering virtual German language support to my son thus increasing his confidence. Would definitely recommend!

Very supportive and encouraging. Has made great strides in improvement and we look forward to continuing with Vera.

Excellent

I have thoroughly enjoyed my first few lessons with Vera and have learnt a lot in just a few lessons. The lessons are always very engaging and allow you to feel challenged but relaxed at the same time which is so important when learning and speaking a new language. Vera is always very encouraging and patient and this gives you confidence to have a go and not be worried about making mistakes. Vera's passion and knowledge of languages is evident throughout each lesson, she is very enthusiastic and keen to share her love of languages. I would recommend Vera to anyone wanting to learn a new language or improve their skills whatever their level and reasons for learning. My only regret is I wish I'd found Vera sooner!

Vera is a fantastic support for my son who is preparing for his German GCSE targeting at grade 9. He absolutley enjoys Vera's structured, motivating teaching style and is feels highly motivated now to continue German up to A-levels. ”

Hi, I learnt from Vera over the Christmas holidays ,virtually, and she was a massive help. She was able to cater the lessons towards my weaknesses and clearly explain what was beneficial in the exam. In the short time frame she raised my grade from a 6 to a 9 and I was able to feel that she wanted the best for me. She pushes you but also raises your confidence with commendations. She is an incredible teacher and I thoroughly recommend.

Teacher Vera is really excellent. She helps my daughter G very well in German. She takes a lot of initiatives to improve her speaking, reading and writing skills. I am really pleased by her teaching. She updates me regularly on my daughter’s work. We are very thankful to her.

My daughter feels comfortable with Vera, and confident that she will be able to build up to the required standard.

My son has been having online lessons with Vera for about a month now. He really enjoys them and finds them very productive and professional. We are both very impressed. Thank you Vera!

I cant put in to words just how fantastic Vera has been in helping me to learn Spanish.

Vera first and foremost is fluent in multiple languages and, like most people looking for a tutor, is still learning more langauges. She understands how to teach not just because she has decades of experience in teaching, but because she, herself is a student.

Vera breaks down the fundamentals of learning languages into bitesize portions that are simple to digest. By working on the building blocks, the rest of the language learning becomes simpler.

The lessons vary in length and each lesson has been expertly crafted into various entertaining ways to learn the subject. For the first time, in a learning environment I dont find myself checking the time as the lessons fly by.

Vera is extremely capable as a tutor and even more impresisve is her flexibility. I have had both online and face to face lessons and I have never felt more comfortable.

Its unbelieveable just how cheap the lessons are for the quality of service you receive. Some of the tutors on here are upwards of £60/Hr and without a shadow of a doubt, I guarantee that the learning process that youll have with Vera will be the best value on here.

I hope this feedback illustrates just how impressed I am with Vera's teaching ability!

Vera is a highly professional tutor who structures her lessons well, makes the content relevant to her students needs and she provides informed feedback.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my lessons and it has certainly given me an incentive to develop my study of German.

I would recommend Vera to anyone who is looking tk learn in a supportive and patient environment

I am very pleased with my choice in tutor. Vera is patient , prompt, and prepared all what you would expect and want. She helps me with proper pronunciations which can be quite challenging when learning a language. I would certainly recommend.

Vera is the perfect tutor. I absolutely love my lessons with her and am so glad that I made the decision to pick her. She is head of English at a secondary school and has extensive, life long experience teaching French. She has lots of resources and is very patient. If you want to learn to speak French you cannot do better, in my opinion. I am not taking the GCSE, but learning as an adult, but I did do GCSE french when I was younger, and am sure that Vera would be just as good at the academic side. It is amazing that such fantastic tutors exist at the touch of a button.

Vera was a very good tutor but unfortunately the whole coronavirus situation meant we had to end the relationship after only a few weeks because there are no A level exams now.

I'm so grateful I found Vera to teach me Spanish. I'm an older beginner but she's patient and knowledgeable about how to help me learn best. I highly recommend her as a teacher. Gracias, Vera.

I wanted to re-learn a European language, to improve my language skills, after spending a lot of time working in life Sciences. So, I wanted to re-learn German which Ilearned at school which may be useful for me in the future.

Vera is a great teacher,very patient and showed me a new way of how to learn a language in a better and quicker way. She is a wonderful personality who also gave me an insight into the German way of doing things in everyday life which was very educational.
I highly recommend Vera as a tutor.

Vera has helped our son from not knowing the basics to an A in end of year exams in 3-4 months in me subject and B in the other, so quality is excellent. We would recommend highly.

Very enthusiastic, wants to make the learning fun and has very creative ideas. only 2 lessons so far but I believe my daughter will come out of this being able to speak German

Language being taught: German

Vera is a great tutor. As a languages expert, with the breadth of knowledge/understanding she has of the various languages she speaks, she is able to provide clear and varied teaching whilst creating a fun yet stable and progressive learning environment. Her ability to put things into cultural context also helps a great deal in understanding similarities and differences between langauges. She genuinely enjoys teaching and this comes across well.

Vera is a wonderful teacher. She is patient, encouraging and thorough and makes you feel confident that you can progress. I highly recommend her to anyone.

Vera is a very passionate and positive teacher.
She understands your needs and built a lesson around, always in interesting and catching way.
I felt impress about my improvement as a non-beginner student.
I definitely recommend Vera!

I found Vera as an unreliable person. I clarified with her the conditions in terms of location of classes before paying the fee and at the first class she told me the location was not convenient for her anymore and she would like to change it. I found this quite inappropriate as she should have done some research on commute time before accepting my conditions.

Vera is fun, and does a good job of tailoring the lessons for my personal needs, as an adult casual learner. When we speak German, she speaks clearly but not patronisingly slowly, like you'll get on the tapes, this is really useful. We have hour and a half sessions at £30 which is a good amount of time. In my lessons we tend to spend most of the time practising talking and about half an hour learning a new grammatical principle, it might be different for you if you are building up to an exam. I've met Vera once a week for four months and I've gone from being a self taught beginner to an upper intermediate.

Vera is really good and very organised for tutoring.
She has given confident to student and we are happy with her.
