The Tutor Lancaster

Kate has somehow managed to encourage my son to such an extent that he is now thinking of studying English for A level. Kate’s expertise led him through his GCSE English Language and English Literature so that he felt confident about what was expected of him in each section of each paper.

My son is now a regular and enthusiastic reader. We hav...

Kate started tutoring my 16 year old son for his GCSE's in October. He has processing difficulties but Kate understood his needs and quickly developed a rapport with him. She was able to guide him and gave him strategies that saw him becoming more confident with his English. We can highly recommend Kate for anyone seeking to get additional help for their child.
