About Melanie
The key to educational success is self-belief and confidence. This I endeavour to instil in my students in their learning and their ability to achieve. I am pleased to say that pupils move up between sets at school, achieve two grades higher at GCSE level and all Entrance exam students have been offered places (including those aiming for the most prestigious of UK schools). I like to think that I am approachable and can take a creative approach to learning, where appropriate, whilst encouraging students to aim for their potential. I feel particularly rewarded when those students who find learning more of a challenge begin to find a renewed confidence, turning that into significant strides in their capabilities.

Although a specific, targeted approach is needed for Entrance exams, it still needs to be engaging. Pupils' strengths and areas for development are catered for. I like to encourage students to think through the tasks and evaluate how they could improve or use a more effective strategy to boost their outcomes. Subjects covered are: English, Maths, Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, Interview practice. There are always follow-up tasks to complete between lessons.

Melanie gave my son some lessons in both English and Maths prior to his GCSES. She was very friendly, encouraging and knowledgeable and they got on well. She helped him not only with these subjects but also worked on his confidence and exam technique helping him to gain the results he wanted.
Melanie helped and inspired my son in taking his Math and English GCSE resits.
She understood his ADHD and at very short notice made him very comfortable to try his best and do any homework set.
She explained things clearly , had a great sense of humour and they got on straight away .
He passed them both, a tribute to how she taught and inspired him.
I would highly recommend Melanie.
Melanie – English & Maths Tutor
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Melanie for the past three years, and the results have been exceptional. She has supported our daughter Evie with both English and Maths, and the progress has been remarkable.
Melanie is patient, reliable, and highly effective in her teaching approach. She takes time to understand each topic thoroughly and adapts her sessions to Evie’s individual needs and learning style. As a result, Evie’s confidence has grown significantly, and she’s consistently achieved strong results at school.
Melanie’s calm, encouraging manner and clear explanations make her stand out — and her dedication has played a key role in Evie’s academic development. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality, long-term tutoring support.I've known Melanie for over 4 years, having taught my two children and she has successfully improved their performance in both English and Maths. My son wasn't confident in Maths in Year 6 but engaging Melanie was a game-changer. My daughter, on the other hand, needed to secure a higher GCSE English grade to go onto A Level, and we were delighted with her achieving Level 8. I have no hesitation in recommending Melanie.
I met Melanie over 3 years ago when I was looking for someone to help my son prepare for his upcoming entrance exams for senior school. Melanie coached him in maths, English, verbal and non verbal reasoning and also helped with preparation for the interview by discussing current affairs and other potential topics with him. With Melanie’s help, my son was awarded scholarships from both of the schools he had applied to.
My younger daughter didn't need any extra tuition but she wanted lessons like her brother which is a testament to Melanie's qualities as a teacher. She is kind, approachable and engaging but most importantly, she makes learning fun, tailoring lessons around your child's interests.
Melanie is particularly passionate when it comes to creative writing and, having had a children’s book published recently, she is ideally placed to develop this skill in her students.
As my daughter now prepares to sit her entrance exams, Melanie is tutoring her again. Melanie builds confidence and helps every child to reach their potential. I really cannot recommend her highly enough.View more recommendations
