Catherine is such an amazing teacher. Her style and approach of teaching just make tough subjects for my son so easy to understand and he has raised his GCSE predicted attainment grades in recent assessments. It is interactive, the time flies by and he is retaining the knowledge from the sessions. Catherine is dependable, flexible and gives great advice.

Catherine's qualifications
Catherine qualified to teach Science in 2007, and holds a QTS from University of Hertfordshire.
Catherine has really helped our daughter’s understanding of all 3 sciences over the past year that they’ve worked together. She makes the lessons fun and is very good at explaining tricky concepts. It’s been very helpful that she’s actually teaching the subjects on a day to day basis at a school so really knows what topics are important. She also gives some helpful exercises for our daughter to work on after the lesson is done. We would very much recommend Catherine to anyone who needs help with their sciences.
