Although there are some students I only work with for a short period of time (6-18months), I've been so fortunate to work with many families for years, working with students from Yr 4 all the way through to GCSE and/or with each sibling as they grow up.

"Anwen is a brilliant tutor as she is totally professional in her work. She is obviously highly intelligent and on a different level to other tutors. Anwen came along at a time that my son's GCSEs in English Language and Literature needed a boost. His school teaching was both weak and uninspiring. Anwen stepped into the breach. She even managed to adapt at the 11th hour when my son's school changed its exam board. My son obtained a Grade 9 for English Language and an 8 for English Literature, both grades of which we were very pleased. Thank goodness we were recommended Anwen. She was wonderful in following up with my son and sent him a congratulations card, which was thoughtful and appreciated." - Mrs C.

"Anwen tutored both of my boys for English Language GCSE. The most important gift she gave them was confidence in their ability and to ‘attack’ English and not to be afraid of the subject. Both boys improved their grades significantly and it also helped to give a strong base in other subjects like History. Anwen is 100% reliable and has a gentle yet firm manner ensuring the kids can’t hide on screen!"

“Anwen, thanks so much for all your help over the years. 2 x 9 for *** in English…. You have inspired, encouraged and supported her and helped her to believe in herself. How many times she was told [by school] the top grades weren’t possible with dyslexia. So proud of her.”

"Yesterday was my GCSE results day and I’m really happy that I was able to achieve an 8 in English Language. I got a 6 in English Literature but I was only 1 mark of a 7 so hopefully I’ll be able to find that extra mark when I get my paper (2) remarked. Ever since the beginning of my secondary school journey you have helped me every step of the way. Your guidance and suggestions really did help me through these past 7 years and I always enjoyed your informative and extremely useful lessons. I hope that you continue to help and inspire students like me to try their absolute hardest to achieve their best grades. As I now move on to my new college and my A-Levels I will always remember you as one of my best teachers. I wish all the best for the future and thank you so much for everything that you have done for me."

"A BIG thank you for all your wonderful tutoring of [***]! You've been an absolute godsend and taken a lot of stress out of the process."

Dear Anwen,

Thank you for teaching me you have really helped with my exams. You have made me more confident and I’m going to miss seeing you lots. Thanks for all the help and support. I’m really proud of the new things I have learnt. I couldn’t have done it without you.
