Sam has been tutoring our daughter for several weeks now in both group and one to one sessions. We have noticed a big difference in how our daughter approaches her learning, she is much more confident and uses strategies to support her learning. Sam is truly excellent and we cannot thank her enough!
my son has ADHD, which makes it difficult for him to sit still , concentrate and put the confidence into his schooling. he has been struggling with maths at a lower-than-average level in school and i found sam and immediately she understood me and what my child needed For the past three weeks, he has been having group tutoring sessions with Sam, and he is already eager to get on zoom and learn . He really enjoys his time with her which is a great change from the norm. Sam is amazing. She truly understood the assignment with my son taking the time to get to know him and his habits , hobbies and then incorporating those into her lessons. This approach has made a big difference—she encourages him to enjoy maths rather than feel overwhelmed by it. You can really see that Sam has a passion for teaching and supporting children, and that shines through in the way she works with my son. I already see an improvement in his attitude to learning, and I feel confident that as the weeks go on, his confidence will continue to grow with Sam’s support. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a patient, understanding, and passionate tutor.
Sam is an amazing tutor to my daughter. She was struggling at school and she lacked in confidence in her maths lessons. Since starting tutoring she has not only gained her confidence back but she has also started enjoying her lessons and that's all thanks to Sam. My daughter is so happy after every tutor session and comes running to show me all the work she has completed and that makes me a very proud parent. Sam always has time for her pupils and if my daughter ever needs support with her work she knows she can always contact her. So glad we started the tutoring journey and I know this has already benefited my daughter and I can't wait to watch her progress and gain even more confidence in her work.
My daughter Year 6 has been struggling with Maths for some time. Sam met with both of us online before we signed up for the course and my daughter said immediately afterwards that she wanted to do it. Sam communicated so well in the lead up to the sessions and even checked in when doing her preparation to make sure the content was accessible which we really appreciated. She had her first lesson this evening and said Maths is now her favourite subject. An incredible turn around in just one lesson. So far we have had a fantastic experience and can thoroughly recommend Sam to anyone.
My daughter’s been having maths tutoring with Sam for around 12 weeks and she loves it Sam is so approachable, happy to help and always there to support and answer any questions we both may have. My daughter has thrived in such a short space of time and her confidence has grown massively, and she’s starting to enjoy maths because of Sam. I can’t recommend Sam enough she’s a brilliant tutor who always put the child needs first and adapts the learning accordingly Thank you Sam
cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Sam as a maths tutor for our daughter. Initially, she struggled with confidence and often dreaded math classes. However, Sam's patient and encouraging approach has been nothing short of transformative. From the very first session, Sam created a safe and welcoming environment where our child felt comfortable to express their thoughts and questions. Her ability to break down complex concepts into manageable and relatable ideas has made learning enjoyable and engaging. It's clear that Sam truly cares about her students and goes above and beyond to ensure they understand the material. Thanks to Sam's guidance, our child's attitude towards math has completely changed. What was once a source of anxiety and insecurity has turned into a subject they genuinely like and look forward to exploring. The improvement in their skills is evident, but more importantly, their confidence has soared. We wholeheartedly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a dedicated and compassionate tutor. Her impact on our child's academic journey will make a dramatic Impact and we are so thankful that we found her and for her support!
