Mad about Maths ... Retired teacher but still enthusiastic about teaching, offers 1:1 tutoring in maths from KS2 through to the GCSE. Experienced and highly successful in Y7 & Y9 school Entrance exam

Mel helped me check over my dissertation for my physiotherapy degree. Really careful and thorough work. I am pleased to report i got a First! Would definitely recommend. Thank you.

Melanie gave my son some lessons in both English and Maths prior to his GCSES. She was very friendly, encouraging and knowledgeable and they got on well. She helped him not only with these subjects but also worked on his confidence and exam technique helping him to gain the results he wanted.

Melanie helped and inspired my son in taking his Math and English GCSE resits.
She understood his ADHD and at very short notice made him very comfortable to try his best and do any homework set.
She explained things clearly , had a great sense of humour and they got on straight away .
He passed them both, a tribute to how she taught and inspired him.
I would highly recommend Melanie.

Melanie – English & Maths Tutor

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Melanie for the past three years, and the results have been exceptional. She has supported our daughter Evie with both English and Maths, and the progress has been remarkable.

Melanie is patient, reliable, and highly effective in her teaching approach. She takes time to understand each topic thoroughly and adapts her sessions to Evie’s individual needs and learning style. As a result, Evie’s confidence has grown significantly, and she’s consistently achieved strong results at school.

Melanie’s calm, encouraging manner and clear explanations make her stand out — and her dedication has played a key role in Evie’s academic development. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality, long-term tutoring support.

I've known Melanie for over 4 years, having taught my two children and she has successfully improved their performance in both English and Maths. My son wasn't confident in Maths in Year 6 but engaging Melanie was a game-changer. My daughter, on the other hand, needed to secure a higher GCSE English grade to go onto A Level, and we were delighted with her achieving Level 8. I have no hesitation in recommending Melanie.

I met Melanie over 3 years ago when I was looking for someone to help my son prepare for his upcoming entrance exams for senior school. Melanie coached him in maths, English, verbal and non verbal reasoning and also helped with preparation for the interview by discussing current affairs and other potential topics with him. With Melanie’s help, my son was awarded scholarships from both of the schools he had applied to.

My younger daughter didn't need any extra tuition but she wanted lessons like her brother which is a testament to Melanie's qualities as a teacher. She is kind, approachable and engaging but most importantly, she makes learning fun, tailoring lessons around your child's interests.

Melanie is particularly passionate when it comes to creative writing and, having had a children’s book published recently, she is ideally placed to develop this skill in her students.

As my daughter now prepares to sit her entrance exams, Melanie is tutoring her again. Melanie builds confidence and helps every child to reach their potential. I really cannot recommend her highly enough.
