Ex-Head of Primary and Primary Teacher (17 years) - Primary Maths & English/11+/Common Entrance/ISEB

When we recognized my daughter, with an ADHD/Autism profile, needed some additional support in core subjects, we knew Leanne would provide the support and adaptability for her to benefit from some additional tutoring.

Leanne is patient and understanding, knowing no two sessions will be the same, and what worked before might not be the strategy for the next time!

Making learning fun and engaging, I’d not hesitate to recommend her.

My daughter lacked confidence in maths, finding it difficult to apply the strategies taught in school to more complex problems. Leanne built a fantastic relationship with her, putting her at ease and explaining the concepts in ways that she could relate to and make sense of. She communicated clearly with us as parents, ensuring the sessions were relevant to what she was working on at school. We have seen a real improvement in our daughter's confidence and engagement with her maths homework. We would happily recommend Leanne to anyone looking for that additional support with their child's learning.

I have known Leanne for over 13 years as a colleague and have seen first-hand what an excellent teacher she is. She has also tutored both of my children, so I can recommend her from both a professional and personal perspective.

Leanne worked with my son on English, spelling and reading comprehension, and with my daughter in English and maths. She extended my daughter’s writing despite her already being a highly able pupil, while also helping her build confidence and fluency with her times tables.

Leanne has a real ability to understand what each child needs and adapt her teaching accordingly. She is patient, encouraging and knows how to challenge and support in equal measure. My children enjoyed working with her, made excellent progress and grew in confidence.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leanne to any parent looking for an experienced, knowledgeable and genuinely caring tutor.
