Testimonials

We are featured in the Good Schools Guide A List of tutoring companies and consultancies, with a glowing review:

ā€œThey certainly know their onions when it comes to education ā€“ a combination that makes you feel instantly at ease with them, as well as in safe hands. ā€˜These women are something else. What they donā€™t know about the system isnā€™t worth knowing,ā€™ one parent told us.ā€

ā€œWhat we like about JK Educate: Katie and Lorraeā€™s knowledge of the educational system and curriculum and their ability to target appropriate schools through their assessment process. Correctly matching tutor personalities to suit the pupil. High standard of tutors.ā€

Parent Feedback to JK Survey

ā€œI would highly recommend JK Educate. Tania and team have been with our family on our son’s 11+ journey from the very beginning- from an initial assessment, all the way through to interview preparation. They also helped my son match to tutors that brought out the very best in him and supported him in a way that was most suited to him. I would highly recommend the JK team!ā€

ā€œFriendly personal service which has a genuine desire to assist with childrenā€™s educational development and progress.ā€

ā€œFirstly, congratulations on JK Educate being recommended by The Good Schools Guide! I also remember being impressed earlier in the year as I read an article in the Telegraph by yourselves.

You have given us plenty to think about ā€“ thank you. We are absolute beginners in the private school world and will take time over the weekend to consider the next steps.ā€

ā€œWe had a great experience with JK Educate, especially with Tania who gave a really comprehensive explanation of our daughterā€™s assessment and helped us in the decision of which direction to take in her further education (transition from primary to secondary school). Tania agreed to teach our daughter English in preparation for her 11+ exam and the progress was amazing in just seven months of work.ā€
