“Alexa patiently and confidently supported my son with his significant dyslexia and dyspraxic tendencies. With her direction, and guided by a range of innovative and tailored techniques and approaches, he made excellent progress. His work with Alexa facilitated his transition into secondary and beyond, eventually gaining him a much vaulted GCSE level 5 pass at English language. I cannot thank her enough for her support on this journey.”
"Alexa, has provided invaluable support to a young dyslexic individual that I have supported over the last 3 years. Her ability to engage with young people, build self-confidence and provide a supportive learning environment has been truly life-changing. Few young people request on-going support from the same tutor and this is a testament to the support she has provided. She has flagged areas of concern and adapted lessons to suit the vagaries of multiple challenges in a pragmatic and consistent manner."

“Our son went for tutoring with Alexa when he was in Y 8 ahead of his common entrance exams. He went from being a boy who thought he couldn’t do maths and English to achieving a 9 and a 7 in his GCSEs. It really transformed his ability to concentrate and to believe in himself.”
“My son started with Alexa when struggling with English, we thought he had Dyslexia (found out I did too whilst he was being taught). He came along leaps and bounds with just one lesson a week, this foundation that Alexa gave helped my son succeed gaining his English GCSE with 5 / 5 more then we could have hoped for first time! He is now doing a degree apprenticeship which he could never of achieved without the support of Alexa.”

“I have had the pleasure and privilege of working with Alexa within school in my role as an HLTA and more recently as a private Maths Tutor. Alexa's subject knowledge and professional expertise is exemplary, especially in the complex areas of dyslexia and study skills. Alexa's teaching style and the encouragement of her study skills groups enabled them to embrace and learn specific skills to experience success.”
“Since our daughter came for tutoring with Alexa it’s transformed her attitude to school and learning. She went from being predicted Bs to achieving As in her English exams.”

“Alexa is a truly inspirational and dedicated tutor. Her lessons were enjoyable and equipped my son, who is dyslexic, with the skills, strategies, and confidence to move forward and realise his capability to achieve. My son had a very positive experience and went on to pass his GCSE in English.”
