Rachel was fantastic in building a strong rapport with our slightly quiet boy from the get go. Her primary focus with our son was to help him improve his creative writing skills for his 7+ assessments and she very patiently helped him with several frameworks and toolkits that really helped him structure his already very imaginative mind. We could certainly see a stark difference in how his stories were structured once he started with Rachel whilst completing them in the given timeframe - in fact one of the top school’s feedback was that his story writing was most impressive compared to his peers (and I would attribute that to Rachel’s guidance and help). She was also quite willing and flexible to give us further guidance on what we needed to do home to complement her sessions, and on various other queries about which schools to apply, their process, where our son fit in his peer group and what would be most suited to his personality. Finally, she ran a mock test which really helped my son build further confidence for the assessments and the interviews that would follow. Thank you Rachel!
