Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Hazel is a diligent, reliable and responsible tutor. She built excellent relationships with my children and significantly improved their marks. She is flexible in her approach, tailoring it to the pupil. She is friendly and approachable yet always managed to cover the subject matter planned. She is inspiring and enthusiastic and clearly is an excellent tutor. I would not hesitate to recommend her. My children gained enormously from her help.
Hazel tutored two students at MPW college Cambridge, preparing them for A level exams in Portuguese.
Hazel taught me Spanish for over a year and improved my spoken and written Spanish a great deal. She speaks Spanish well (according to my native Spanish speaking wife), and teaches in a relaxed and friendly manner, making learning good fun!
Michael worked with Hazel on his Spanish as an extra to his GCSEs, he thoroughly enjoyed the language and was sorry when the lessons ended. Hazel is an excellent tutor choice
Hazel made our lessons both interesting and fun.
She had such patience with
my husband and I who are retired and whose brains were not quite so receptive as they once were!
I do not hesitate to recommend Hazel as a tutor.View more recommendations
