Forever grateful

Extremely supportive teaching style

Skill, grace & utter reliability

I will be forever grateful for the support Verity has given my daughter with her A Level Biology. This is a subject she particularly struggled with and Verity has enabled my daughter to gain confidence and to identify where she was losing marks in her answers to exam questions. My daughter has particularly liked the in depth PowerPoints with questions to check knowledge and understanding throughout. Verity has been able to explain topics that my daughter was unable to grasp during her school lessons. My daughter was reluctant to begin tutoring but what was a trial lesson to begin with, soon became a necessity. A big thank you from a happy parent!

Thank you so much, you've been an amazing tutor for L. Tutoring a young person who finds it so hard to stay in the room is a real challenge & we were so lucky to find you. Your skill in adapting the learning, the grace & understanding you gave him, & the utter reliability that you kept showing up for him - these are all the building blocks that kept him learning science. I'm also really grateful for the time you have taken to keep me informed. You've been brilliant. Thank you!

Choosing Verity for my A-Level biology tuition is one of the best decisions I've made. Her style of teaching is extremely supportive and I have found myself with a newfound confidence when it comes to answering exam questions. She has an ability to make the content less intimidating and easier to digest whilst still maintaining the details needed. I couldn't recommend Verity enough and am so grateful to have her!

It was quite by accident I stumbled upon Verity for my daughter’s GCSE Biology, but so glad I did! I can't recommend her enough. My daughter found her teaching style engaging and effective, making complex topics much easier to understand. My daughter has significantly improved in her understanding of biology, her exam technique and is much more confident now. Thank you Verity for your support and guidance, and pushing my daughter up 2 or 3 grades!

We have been so fortunate to find Verity who is tutoring my daughter A level biology. Her lessons are always well structured and she takes the time to identify and target areas that need developing. The exam question practice has really helped boost my daughter's confidence and grades. Thank you Verity!

Ever since my son joined Verity's tuition, he is more confident in answering exam style questions and I believe he has learnt a lot from this when doing an exam paper. She has helped him with exam technique and also taught him some content as well to acquire good knowledge of the topic before answering exam questions. All in all I would recommend any family or friends to Verity if they consider doing biology for A level.
