Testimonials
"Emily has been an excellent support for my daughter as she prepared for her National 5 exam in English. Emily is always punctual, well prepared, professional and patient in her approach. What stands out the most is how well she understands my child's individual learning needs and adapts her teaching style accordingly. Lessons are not rushed, and my daughter is given as much support as possible.
Emily has helped to build my daughter's confidence, and she now feels comfortable asking questions. Emily has had such an impact on my daughter that she has not only engaged in this subject in school but in fact, in all her subjects.
My daughter achieved an A in her English exam. I would highly recommend Emily to any parent looking for focused, reliable support for exam preparation."

"I cannot recommend Emily highly enough as a tutor. From the very beginning, she has been a wonderful support for my daughter, bringing not only a wealth of knowledge and experience but also a deep understanding of neurodiversity.
Emily took the time to truly understand how my daughter learns, tailoring each session to her individual needs. Her compassionate and thoughtful approach has made a significant impact, creating an engaging and supportive learning environment where my daughter thrives.
Emily’s kindness, patience, and dedication set her apart. She has been an incredible source of guidance, not just for my daughter but for me as well, offering invaluable support and insight.
We feel truly fortunate to have found Emily, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective tutor for their young person."

“I found Emily very easy to talk to and she helped me to understand in easier terms than I was getting at school. She is very friendly, put me at ease and helped me to understand English better. Would highly recommend.”

“I was worried about my critical essay for Nat 5 English because we hadn’t spent much time on it in class. Emily helped me to understand the techniques that I needed to write about and showed me what the markers were looking for. I got an A in my exam.”

"Emily is a fantastic tutor. She was extremely patient with me as I struggled a lot with English but after a few months she has made me very confident in the subject. She is worth every penny!"

"Emily was tutoring my son in both English and History for his Nat 5 exams. She began working with him in November before his English prelim. We were prepared and briefed for my son, Tyler, to fail his prelim but after only a few sessions with Emily he passed.

History was particularly difficult for Tyler and Emily noticed huge gaps in his knowledge and realised that she may need to take a different approach with him. She helped him to organise his notes and time and gave him guided and specific direction with his study, which is something he would not have been able to do on his own or even with parental input.
Tyler is a student that requires extra support with written subjects and is undergoing assessment for suspected ADHD. Emily picked up on this on her own before we discussed it and showed endless patience in working with an anxious and very easily distracted teen. Emily managed to find new ways to keep him engaged and able to retain what he was learning, going above and beyond what somebody would expect from any tutor and often finding alternative ways of working with him. There is no doubt in my mind that Emily truly cares about giving her students the best support she can. I would highly recommend Emily to any parent whose teen is struggling with these subjects."
