‘’When my son first attended tutoring, he would not take his coat off or engage in learning. However, with time and patience, my son has become a much happier child who now not only attends sessions but learns and engages.​ I have enjoyed watching his happiness grow. P you have helped my son achieve because you knew he could. Thank you for helping bring back his smile.’’ Parent

 

​‘’My daughter has presented as non-school attender for the last 3 years (since Y9). As a result of N’s teaching and pastoral care, my daughter passed FSL1 maths and has been entered for English examinations July 2024. As a result of the tuition provided by N, my daughter has made significant progress ensuring that despite the barriers created by non-school attendance, she has achieved academically on par with her peers.’’​ Parent

 

’My son was struggling in a school setting, and we were offered online tutoring with 1st Staff. I have not regretted making the decision to go ahead with this as my son engages wonderfully with his tutor F.  F is a godsend to us, and she works wonders with my son’s education. I cannot thank her enough for all the support she gives him. I look forward to seeing more success over the upcoming year. Thank you.’’​ Parent

 

​‘’I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for your outstanding teaching. Your dedication, passion, and commitment to K’s  education have made a significant impact on her learning experience.​ Your teaching style is engaging, always finding creative ways to make the subject matter come alive, even when K says she is not interested in engaging or attending the session, you find ways around it.’’ Care Home
