 I’m very happy with her way of teaching, she doesn’t go too fast that you can’t catch up, but still goes fast enough that you learn something every lesson. I’ve learned a lot from here and would recommend her to others!

 Hello Isabel. I hope you are well. Ryan has had the results back from listening and reading. I'm am very pleased with him, and very grateful to you for all of your support. In listening, he has gone from a U (3 marks away from a grade) to a Grade 8! In reading, he has gone from a U (1 mark away from a grade) to a Grade 5! It is such a huge improvement after just 7 weeks. Thank you again for all of your support.

 Before I started my lessons with Isabel, Spanish was a real nightmare and I was only getting U in my mock exams. I didn't want to do anything with Spanish anymore. However, my mother encouraged me to take 1:1 classes with a tutor. Luckily for me, Isabel is not only a Spanish teacher but also a SEN teacher. She did what no teacher had ever done before, teaching me Spanish and at the same time teaching me strategies to improve my dyslexia. In my last mock exam I got grade 8, I am extremely happy, I never thought I would achieve it, I am extremely grateful. Isabel is superb tutor, highly recommended.
