Zoe and Martin Gluckman, Pinner

We have been in regular contact with Katie for the two years preceding the 11+ exams and are very grateful for her sound guidance, words of wisdom and parental understanding through this stressful process. She gently managed our expectations, motivated both us and our daughter with words of encouragement and sensitively highlighted areas for development, with very practical advice on how to make improvements.

The tutor recommended for our daughter was superb – hugely supportive, yet tough on occasion, as required. Significant and noticeable improvements were made very quickly.

The interview practice session is a ‘must’ for every child sitting independent entrance exams. Within a single session our daughter learned how to present herself in a positive light, discuss her achievements with pride and gained an insight into what interviewers are looking for in a child. We have no doubt that this was a huge factor in her being offered places at each of the four independent schools she applied to.

We look forward to working with you again as our second child moves through primary school and, should the need arise, for our daughter as she progresses with her secondary education.
