We can not thank Melissa enough in helping Mya achieve her grades in her GCSE’s, Mya enjoyed every lesson and also gained so much knowledge from Melissa’s experience in tutoring.. would definitely recommend! Thank you again 🩷
I contacted Melissa to ask if she had a tutor that could help my daugther Emily to prepare & build up her confidence for GCSE maths. Melissa sent over Megan and what I can say, Megan has been fantastic with my daugther and has given her confidence & that been seen by her Classroom Assistant in school. Megan has gone over & above in helping my daugther grow in confidence in maths. Again I asked Melissa if she had someone that could help my other daugther Sophie with English. Melissa sent over Hannah. Hannah has been brillant with Sophie & they have built up a good rapport. Hannah has helped Sophie confidence grow in doing English in school and Sophie teacher commented to me that she has seen a big improvement since Sophie has started with Hannah, her confidence is growing and a big improvement in her work. Thank you Melissa for 2 wonderful people on your team ( Megan & Hannah) as they are making a big difference to my girls. Thank you Megan & Hannah & Melissa 😀
My son attended one of the online revision GCSE English classes. I only wish I had signed him up before. Excellent session. Well paced, super tips and clearly explained. Thank you so much x
My daughter loved learning with Mel. She signed up to the SEAG course and was initially dreading "more work at the weekend", but ended up looking forward to the sessions. she said Mel and Jamie made learning really fun and she learnt lots of techniques to help with her test. Thank you!
Did a zoom session for some last minute Seag prep and my son really loved it! He said he wished he did sessions long before now lol but he just didn’t ever think it could have been fun but he loved it! So thank you ☺️
Thank you Mel and Jamie for all your hard work over the Seag scheme! Curtis has learned so many tips and tricks and he found it so fun while learning. He will miss you both but we will be back with Alfie next September! 😊
I reached out to find a tutor for my twins who were struggling to keep up in class for Maths. Mel sent me the lovely Sophie who has done wonders over the last few months helping my kids not only catch up but gain confidence in maths and in class tackle things head on. I am beyond delighted. I would definitely recommend using Learn with Mel!!
Megan, part of the Learn with Mel Team, has given my daughter an increased confidence and ability when it comes to Maths! This has also been noticed by her Maths teacher in school. Thanks for everything so far.....
I have previously reviewed Melissa but needed to update. What can I say? Melissa brought the best out of my daughter, Lexie. She was really struggling with all her AQE prep but Melissa made it interesting, educational and more importantly, fun. Lexie thoroughly enjoyed every session, even asking if she could continue after the dreaded exams. Results just in and she did so much better than we initially expected. Highly recommended
