Testimonial

“Nikki has been working with my son for two years.

The difference in my son is incredible. He is back up to being above average. The school is very impressed. But not only has he improved academically his attitude and confidence has dramatically increased.

He loves his sessions. They have fun but clearly work extremely hard. Nikki sets homework if required. She works with each individual child and makes sure the work is of interest to them. My son is able to select the topics they study which makes a big difference. She is easy to contact. Very accessible and works around you.

I would absolutely recommend Nikki for your child without hesitation. We will be continuing with Nikki for as long as she is available. She is such a worthwhile investment into your child's future.” - Lynn
