Ruby (Student)
Lisa asked me every week what I felt weak on or worried about and what things that I needed to recap, which was very helpful. She also tailored everything to how I learn! I have truly enjoyed going to her sessions each week and felt more confident week by week!
Thankyou for helping and supporting me each week Lisa and giving me confidence that I can do this!

Joanne (Parent)
My eldest son was failing English and so he went to Lisa for help twice a week for a month leading up to his exams and with her help passed his English. Next my youngest daughter was tutored by Lisa as she started high school in a learning support class. English was a subject she really struggled with. Lisa taught here English once a week until she caught up to the other children in her year and moved out of learning support.
Finally, my middle child had an English teacher in school who was unsupportive and knocked her confidence. Despite being good at English she would constantly question her own ability. Seeing Lisa weekly really boosted her confidence and filled her with strategies which allowed her to confidently tackle her exams.
All three of my children really enjoyed their sessions despite English being one of their least favourite subjects. They said Lisa made learning fun as you could sense her passion for the subject.

I have always perceived the appointment of Lisa as the best appointment I have made in my career.
She is a very dedicated educator who puts her students at the forefront of everything she does. Her commitment to be an outstanding teacher can be seen in the engaging and dynamic lessons she delivers, which are always tailored to meet the needs of her students and she used her fabulous relationship with students to motivate and inspire everyone around her.
She always shows the necessary dynamism to be an outstanding teacher and a lead practitioner and this is clearly evident in the ‘Outstanding’ lessons that she delivers in both her formal lesson observations and ‘drop-ins’.
Lisa has simply proved to be invaluable. She has boundless energy and enthusiasm for teaching, her students and education as a whole. She is innovative, resourceful and has an excellent rapport with both parents, students and outside agencies.
