I was recommended Alice for Maths tutoring, we were a bit late but my son needed to pass to get into his college course and he was struggling with maths.

 

Alice was very professional at all times she worked with him online and gave him and I pointers of what he needed to improve on. He passed his Maths this year and I very much doubt he could have without Alice.

Still not sure what's right for your child?
