  • “I am delighted to write this letter of recommendation for Elaine who has been working as a SEND tutor for my six-year-old daughter.

    Elaine has been teaching my daughter at home for one hour each week, and throughout this time she has consistently demonstrated exceptional patience, professionalism, and dedication.

    She has created a warm and supportive learning environment where my daughter feels comfortable, valued, and motivated to learn.

    Elaine has a remarkable ability to adapt her teaching methods to meet my daughter's individual needs. She carefully plans engaging activities that encourage learning while building confidence and independence. Since working with Elaine, I have seen noticeable progress in my daughter's communication, focus, and overall enthusiasm for learning. Elaine's calm and encouraging approach has helped my daughter develop both academically and socially.

    I wholeheartedly recommend Elaine to any family, school, or organisation seeking a skilled and compassionate SEND tutor. Her commitment to supporting children with additional needs, combined with her genuine care and expertise, makes her an outstanding educator.

    We feel extremely fortunate to have had Elaine's support and are very grateful for the positive impact she has had on our daughter's development.”

  • “Elaine is a special tutor who made learning fun whilst helping my daughter reach her goals and target for each lesson. She is friendly, warm and had a different take on each lesson which had my daughter enjoying her one on one lessons. I would recommend Elaine as she is kind and patient.”

    Ikram

  • "Elaine's support was invaluable for our child's successful transition to his school. Arriving at a new school can be challenging, but the added hurdle of navigating unfamiliar language made it even more daunting for our child.

    Elaine's patience, dedication, and engaging teaching methods made all the difference. Thanks to Elaine's guidance, our child was not only able to learn English but also excelled in most of his academic subjects.

    Her personalised approach helped our child gain confidence in his abilities and flourish in his new environment. We are incredibly grateful for Elaine's positive impact on our child's education."

    Anthony & Pascale

  • "Elaine looked after our son for several years during normal school hours, several times a week. Through her accurate and very well-founded feedback, we felt informed at all times and had a very good overview of all learning progress.

    In this way, amongst other things, she ensured that he met the [school’s] requirements, especially in areas such as academic vocabulary, grammar and the use of homophones.

    Elaine was available at all times, always ready with advice and made us feel that he was in good hands.

    We would like to thank Elaine for her exceptional work and wish her all the best for the future."
