Testimonials
My son had been assessed as still working towards the expected standard for his age on his school reports for several years and although he enjoys numbers, he had little confidence in his mathematical abilities. We wanted him to have some additional support before secondary school so he started seeing Katherine weekly at the beginning of Year 5. From the start he looked forward to going each week because Katherine's friendly, caring and approachable manner meant the sessions were enjoyable for him as well as educational. Katherine really took the time to get to know him and identify where the gaps were in his understanding, and as a result both his confidence and his achievement absolutely soared over the year. His Year 5 school report showed he was achieving the expected standard for his age, as did his maths result in his Year 6 SATS. I recommend Katherine to other parents all the time and my son, now nearly at the end of Year 7, still misses her!

Katherine has worked miracles with our daughter whose confidence in Maths had fallen really low. With her really friendly and gentle approach, she gradually rebuilt her confidence and we saw our daughter going from strength to strength finishing her school year Secure in the standard in Maths. Katherine keeps you as a parent informed of progress and keeps the children interested, motivated and excited about Maths. We were sad that we could not carry on with Katherine when we moved away and our daughter still misses her very much but is still benefiting from the strong foundations she learnt with Katherine.

Katherine was referred to us by a friend and tutored our youngest son. She was amazingly patient, kind, and energetic. There was always fun and relevant learning provided, at a pace that suited and our son had a wonderful time and always looked forward to his sessions. His enthusiasm to learn and please was nurtured and Katherine was incredibly approachable and always willing to provide updates and discuss his progression. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
