A truly exceptional tutor — kind, skilled, and endlessly supportive
We were incredibly fortunate to have Hollie work with our son on his maths. From the very first session, she brought warmth, patience, and a deep understanding of how to make learning both accessible and fun. Her background as a primary school teacher was evident in the way she tailored each lesson to suit his needs, building his confidence and helping him grasp concepts that had previously felt out of reach.
Our son absolutely adored his time with Hollie; he would look forward to each session with genuine excitement, and it was wonderful to see his enthusiasm for maths grow week by week. Hollie created such a positive, nurturing environment that he felt safe to ask questions, make mistakes, and celebrate his progress.
Beyond her teaching skills, what stood out most was her kindness. She was always encouraging, always calm, and always ready to go the extra mile to support him. Thanks to her, he not only improved academically but also developed a real belief in his own abilities.
I can’t recommend Hollie highly enough. She’s a rare gem - the kind of educator who leaves a lasting impact. Any child would be lucky to learn with her.
Hollie has been tutoring my 9 year old daughter in Mathematics over the last year. My daughter was struggling with maths at school and found this subject especially hard to focus on in a class environment.
When we started using Hollie, my daughter had done very badly in some mid-term testing and we were struggling to give her extra support as parents.
Since Hollie has been working with her the improvement in maths has been astonishing. She has gone from being well below her expected level to being happily within the middle of her year group and still improving. Hollie knows her subject and also the appropriate syllabus very well so there has been seamless working with her and what the school have been teaching. Hollie has a lovely, calming manner and has provided a relaxed atmosphere for my daughter which she has really benefited from in a one-to-one setting and we could not be happier with her as a tutor.
Hollie is great at communicating with us and has been very flexible with us which has been really helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a private tutor.
Hollie was a pleasure to work with and has tutored both my daughter and my son.
My son has ADHD and dyslexia and Hollie worked wonderfully with him. Despite my son’s challenges, he was always very receptive to Hollie and worked well with her. She has a lovely manner and connects so well with children.
Hollie is always super well prepared and provides fun learning activities that really spark my children’s interest. A great tutoring experience!
