In my opinion, Audrey is an exceptional and outstanding tutor. With my son’s English Language and Literature GCSEs fast approaching, I only wish we had found her sooner.
Her teaching style is positive, motivating, and highly engaging. Her verbal feedback is clear, thorough, and delivered with genuine kindness and encouragement. The high standards she sets, alongside her perceptive feedback, ensure that the targets she shares with my son are both concise and achievable.
As a result of Audrey ’s support, my son’s confidence in his written abilities is growing rapidly. The fact that he has requested additional lessons is a real testament to her skill and professionalism.
Audrey ’s expertise in text analysis, evaluation, and vocabulary has been especially invaluable for my son’s exam preparation. He benefits from the practical strategies, advice, and techniques drawn from her extensive experience teaching and assessing GCSE English. I also appreciate her follow-up emails with lesson materials and her flexibility in offering both in-person and online sessions.
As a retired primary school teacher with nearly 30 years of experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Audrey as a private tutor.

It's also lovely to teach such a keen and willing pupil. I have great confidence in his GCSE prospects. Only a few weeks to go!
We couldn’t be happier with Ms ! She is an incredibly experienced, inspiring, and motivating teacher who builds such a fantastic connection with her students. Our daughter, Yağmur, used to feel quite anxious about her GCSE English, but thanks to Ms ’s structured, organised, and supportive approach, she now feels so much more confident and positive.
Ms truly goes above and beyond—not only does she support Yağmur brilliantly, but she also gives us, as parents, very helpful advice and guidance. This has made a huge difference to us as a family throughout this journey.
We are so grateful for all her support during this important GCSE period. She is an outstanding teacher, and we wholeheartedly recommend her!

Yagmur is pretty special too! It's such a pleasure to support a gifted pupil and watch her thrive.
My daughter enjoys the sessions and seems to be progressing well. Will be continuing through to gcses

I'm so pleased you see it that way. We're working through the paper and the techiques needed to get full marks, and the path is clear to maximising your daughter's success.
Audrey was a fantastic tutor and she really helped my son with his GCSE English in the run up to the exams and was very flexible in making herself available.
Tutor response
It felt great that I was able to help.
Fantastic tutor, who understood what my son needed to do from an examiner and a GCSE teacher’s point of view. Her flexibility was great when we needed to cancel at short notice. Would recommend to any GCSE students!
Tutor response
Thank you Jen. Your son is perceptive and wise. We both learned a lot.
I enjoy being ’s student. I look forward to every session.
I feel I have gained more than improved language skills. is encouraging and helps me feel more confident with my language, but she is also fun and has wide-ranging interests that we share.
I appreciate her flexibility and readiness to respond to my wishes. Highly recommended.
Tutor response
Thank you for this feedback. I look forward to our sessions as well!
Thank you to Audrey and especially to her for the excellent support and service.
My son will be entering Year 11 this September and has been struggling with English Literature for quite some time. Although he had worked with another tutor previously, we didn’t see much improvement in his school exam results. In April, we reached out to Audrey for help, and from the very first trial lesson with , my son responded positively — his exact words were, “Wow.”
What impressed us right away was ’s clear, focused, and structured approach. She is straight to the point and highly organised, which has helped my son understand what to focus on. This clarity has made a real difference in his learning. He finds her teaching insightful and appreciates the practical tips she provides. is also very supportive — even offering help outside of scheduled lessons when needed.
As a parent, I naturally worry about my son's education. has also given me some kind, friendly advice which I truly appreciate.
One of my priorities when choosing tuition is to have in-person sessions rather than online, as I believe this is more effective for my son. Initially, I was slightly concerned because the platform did not allow me to confirm or clarify ’s location beforehand, which made me hesitant. However, I’m very glad I went ahead — having as his tutor has been a great decision, and I’m confident she will continue to guide my son well in his English Literature journey.

Thank you Stephen. You know I find learning with your son hugely enjoyable, as he is so responsive to the teaching, and is so much fun. Thanks again.
I’ve had an exceptional experience with Audrey who tutored my son for his GCSE. Her teaching style was clear, engaging, and was tailored to my son’s needs. She broke down complex literature analysis, essay structure and exam technique.
Audrey provided additional reference notes and a very stimulated learning experience.She went beyond her teaching hours and was generous with her time even after his exam to clear a few queries he had and was very supportive and encouraging.
I highly recommend Audrey.

Thank you Sanjeev. Working with your son has been wonderful, as he is clearly so gifted. A joy to work with. Thank you for your comments.
Farhana MamtajFirst Tutors I wasn’t happy the way address was explain to me it was far from my location and the tutor mentioned it’s near my location ,so we couldn’t join the lesson.
Tutor response
I regret that you misunderstood my comment that I "live near the Green Walk" (that also runs past where you live, and I frequently cycle up your way and back on it) which I do. I regret that you stood me up for our first meeting. I regret that although we rescheduled, you did not stop your car so that we never met. I regret that you felt it necessary to leave this feedback despite my clear goodwill.
