Sally engaged with our children and we saw an immediate improvement in their ability, performance and confidence. Both of our children are performing in the top of their class and our daughter recently tested and was accepted to Queens School! Sally is a fantastic teacher and is engaging and compassionate in leading your children to do their best.
Sally is a brilliant tutor, she has managed to raise my daughter's confidence and ability levels in both English and Maths (Year 6) which has resulted in her moving up a set in both subjects at school. My daughter continues to improve week on week. I will continue to use Sally's services in preparation for my daughter's SAT's next year. My daughter enjoy's being taught by Sally and looks forward to her lessons.
Sally's lessons are challenging and fun, and we cover lots of different topics, which makes me feel more confident in maths lessons at school"
Archie - aged 10
We've noticed a real difference in Archie's approach to Maths. Sally's lessons have inspired a keeness to learn, and by making lessons fun and rewarding him for his efforts, she has helped him to grow in confidence."
Archie's Mum- Katie RoebuckWe asked Mrs Pemberton to help our daughter with her English. She has done a wonderful job with massive improvements in story writing and comprehension. She has been very flexible and provided lots of encouragement and support making a big difference to the level of self confidence.
I highly recommend her.
Melanie the pupil shared, 'She is a joy to have teaching me,always explaining everything so clearly and this was a big help in my entrance exams .
Queens scholar achievement was gained.Melanie Paul aged 10 says "She is a joy to have teaching me, explained things clearly and she was a big help in my entrance exams".
Jan 2014Sally tutors our 6 year old daughter Edie and has quite simply transformed her Maths and English comprehension/grammar. How did this happen? Edie' says that 'Mrs Pemberton explains things in a fun way'. Without doubt Sally is the most caring and empathatic teacher we have ever known. She clearly loves children and loves teaching and is very good at it. In short every child should be taught by Sally and we are very grateful we found her. Too good to be true? She almost is.
Sally is a very nice teacher We work hard and have great fun!. I feel very much at home when I go there,.
Sally has really helped me in Maths and English. She has really boosted my confidence I have just had a big set of exams and before I had Sally I was very nervous about them but now I am much more confident.
Sally is a great teacher and I highly recommend to all childrenSally is an excellent teacher who is consistent , keeping a familiar lesson plan .She provide challenging tasks to stretch my son,yet she re-enforces the basics until problems areas are solidified. What I love most about Sally, is the happy safe environment,she provides, where she will make the house cosy and welcoming by lighting the fire on those cold days and sitting in her conservatory on hot days. My son loves going to Sally, I have noticed he always comes back with a happy smile on his face.
Sally is very easy to understand and is very patient.I would certainly
recommend her to others who want help.I am truly grateful for what she has done for me I'm certainly much more confident and happy in maths.Sally is a great tutor.she is concerned ,experienced and patient not to mention her rewards! She has all sorts of handy tips and techniques to pass on to learners My son's improvement in Maths has been noted by his teacher , by his very pleased parents but most importantly my son who is now confident when faced with maths challenges. Sally also spent some time with my 6 year old daughter in preparation for her Queen's assessment (which she was successful in)
