Holly

Holly has quickly developed a positive relationship with our daughter, who loves how Holy helps her to make progress.

The feedback received from students this year has been excellent. We have had more engagement from students since moving to Owl Tutors.

The children found Holly approachable and she made learning fun. We found Holly to be professional and helpful in identifying key areas of focus.

Holly is a great tutor. My son enjoyed the sessions with her!

Holly has been a fantastic tutor. She is extremely engaging and positive and my daughter looks forward to her lessons. I have seen a significant improvement in her abilities and I am confident she is well prepared for her 11+ exams.

Holly is an intelligent and wise tutor. She takes time and effort to understand the cognitive abilities of a child and adjusts her pace/depth and level of tuition accordingly. My daughter really likes Holly and has built a good relationship with her.

Holly is a wonderful warm tutor, always in good spirit. She is really helping my kids. Her teaching methods are excellent. She is approachable, flexible and kind. Most importantly she considers my suggestions and want to achieve goals set for the children. Other English tutors we have experienced in the past do not like to listen to the parents or consider any idea from the bill payer.

Holly was really approachable, the family of the student she helped were really positive about the sessions and she was extremely flexible when things needed to be rearranged.

Holly is a very good tutor. She is very cheerful and makes the lessons enjoyable. My daughter is beginning to build confidence in English as Holly teaches her with praise and encouragement to attempt task helping her to feel free to express herself and contribute in class. My two children she teaches are doing well in school.

Holly has been fantastic with our child. She is nurturing, kind and very supportive. She has knowledge on many school entrance exams and this is very useful with general exam techniques. She is flexible and always willing to have discussions with parents about progress and future lesson planning, to achieve goals.

Holly is a wonderful, calm and knowledgeable tutor. She shows interest in my daughters school week and beyond, which has definitely enabled my daughter to feel very comfortable in the lessons. She pushes her and gives homework to keep her engaged. I and her school English teacher have noticed an improvement not only in her actual grades but her love for the subject! Thank you Holly!

Holly provided fantastic support and tuition, helping my daughter achieve offers from both Sevenoaks School and Caterham School. My daughter enjoyed the online sessions and always looked forward to working with Holly. Thanks so much for all your help!

Holly was very kind and patient and covered all the subjects needed for my daughter’s 7 plus exams. She gained a place at our preferred school!

Holly is a lovely enjoyable teacher. She knows how to deal with kids very well, both education wise as well as personality wise. She managed to get our son to open up to her and I hear him laughing and enjoying the sessions. She always has a good answer that make my son think back and know what went wrong without making him feel bad about mistakes. His improvement has been significant. She is really good and I appreciate her a lot. She is very knowledgeable.

Holly has been able to quickly form a strong bond with our son and spotted the gaps that need addressing in his preparation for an entrance exam. Holly’s sessions are well structured, progressive and positive. She gives plenty of encouragement and lots of hints and tips as well good feedback on progress made.

Holly was incredibly kind and supportive and Leo made real progress with her. I was initially sceptical of online tutoring but it seemed to work well.

Too early to comment on all of these apart form 2 areas - excellent feedback on potential next steps for my son and how he could be managed through the process. Honest feedback about his abilities

Holly is patient and kind, but still gently pushes our daughter with new subjects and challenges!

This is our first experience of hiring a tutor. To give some context to fellow parents, we are an overseas family relocating to London from an International School setting. The process can be incredibly daunting and stressful - especially since the London school scene is oversubscribed and highly competitive. I selected Holly based on her stellar credentials and lovely, warm manner during a preliminary phone interview. Thereafter, I immediately knew that she was the right fit for both my daughter and me. She quickly identified the gaps in my daughter’s understanding of Maths, communicated them to me and set the expectations for the 8+ exam. My daughter went from thinking that she was struggling with Maths to looking forward to seeing Holly every week. Holly taught Maths in a warm, non-dogmatic and meaningful way. I loved eavesdropping on their lessons and fully understood the methods that Holly used. Holly took the trepidation out of getting the answer wrong and showed such patience, sincerity and warmth towards my daughter. My daughter went on to pass all 3 of her 8+ exams, 2 of which were highly academic and prestigious Central London prep schools. I cannot commend Holly highly enough! Holly also tutors in English, and reasoning papers. A bonus and true all-rounder!

My Daughters loved having Holly teach them maths. They felt it was a massive help ahead of their entrance exams and really made a difference to how many questions they could answer. Holly was so flexible with timings of sessions and always tried to accommodate us. My youngest said, “I wish Holly could be my maths teacher at school”. We will be asking for Holly's help ahead of exams on the future too.

Thank you for getting in touch. Our son loves his lessons with Holly, they are really helping with his confidence which is amazing. Holly has been brilliant in terms of communication and really brilliant with our son. My husband and I are really pleased.

Holly is a very organized, calm, thoughtful, encouraging and understanding tutor. Our son has been very happy with Holly and he very much looks forward to meeting Holly online each week. Holly has worked hard at getting to know our son which is often difficult on an online platform. Holly has worked excellently at encouraging him and improving his confidence. This is exactly what we were looking for and I am tremendously pleased to say that our expectations have been met. He produced a lovely piece of creative writing based on his personal likes and we were all very impressed. Thank you, Holly.

Holly was extremely professional, knowledgeable with the perfect friendly approach to tutor my daughter through some Verbal Reasoning 13+ preparation.

Many thanks for Holly's effort in tutoring my 15-year-old daughter. My daughter has had an interest in English and English Literature and would like to learn the most of these subjects. Joining a UK boarding school at the beginning of Term 2 of Year 10 is a bit hard for her to catch up with the syllabus and teaching style. She herself aims high and did not want herself to be left behind. At the end of Term 2, she asked if we could find her an experienced tutor to guide her. Holly is such a competent, passionate, responsible and intelligent person in knowing what gaps my daughter needs to be filled in. After a term -long, weekly tuition by Holly, Allie has successfully grabbed the skills in approaching English literature, started to enjoy English lessons at school a lot. The grades and comments given by her school English teacher is already a strong evidence in showing everyone, including herself, the big improvement. Now, my daughter has gained not only competence in English Literature and Language but her level of confidence in subjects have obviously been boosted up. Holly, thanks for being a passionate and diligent tutor in delivering well-structured lessons with devices to engage my daughter. She finds your lessons interesting and definitely on her way moving up to another level.

Hi Lawrence, we're really loving our sessions with Holly, she's exactly what we were hoping to find and we have every confidence that it'll be a long and productive tutoring relationship for our son!

Our son has gained an unconditional offer at his first school interview with Holly’s help. Although her time with him was short, we found Holly to be incredibly efficient. She was able to help draw out and refine salient points which helped to ease our sons nerves and increase his confidence. We would highly recommend Holly to anyone.
