A few of my happy students!

“Victoria is engaging and lots of fun and a great teacher. Venna is learning so much. Her favourite lessons of the week.” Book Philes 1, Age 11
“My daughter Seren absolutely loves her jolly phonics class with Victoria and looks forward to her lesson each week. The structure of the class is easy to follow and fun. It involves a good variation of interactive writing/grammar work, videos and quiz activities. Would 100 % recommend!” Jolly Grammar 4, Age 8
Alejandro, Jolly Grammar 1
“It was hard to find the teacher for my son Noah, who has SEN. And then we meet Victoria. She showed immediate personal interest and tailored the classes according to his needs. Victoria was quick to respond to any of my questions or concerns that I had about his progress. She believes in a child's potential and ability. Victoria helped my son to love writing and reading. She is not just a teacher, she became a friend to my son.” 1-to-1 teaching and Jolly Phonics 1-2, Age 7
“My daughter Oliana really enjoys Victoria’s lively, inclusive varied lessons . They have really helped with the growth of her reading skills. Many thanks ! “Jolly Grammar 2, Age 7
“Victoria makes English fun. My daughter aged 9 has done Jolly Grammar 1/2/3 and is currently on level 4. My son aged 6 has completed Jolly Phonics 1/2 and currently on level 3. Both my children love her lessons. My daughter wants to be an English teacher when she grows up.”
“I am excited to share my appreciation for Victoria who is an extraordinary teacher for children with special education needs, including those with ADHD and various medical conditions. From the moment we met her it was clear that she has a deep passion for helping Ethan to reach his goals and understanding his challenges and strengths.
Her compassionate approach not only build easy learning environment but also boosts the confidence of kids allowing them to thrive academically and socially.
One of the most impressive aspects of Victoria's teaching is her strategies to accommodate various learning styles and needs. She uses creative methods and activities that engage students with ADHD, ensuring that lessons are both interactive and effective.
I have witnessed firsthand how Victoria patiently supports students including my son who may struggle with focus or anxiety, and she uses techniques which create a safe space where children feel comfortable expressing themselves and exploring their interests.
Victoria maintains open communication with parents, providing valuable insights into each child's progress and areas for development. This communication greatly enhances the support we can provide at home, reinforcing the strategies learned in the classroom.
In summary, Victoria is more than just a teacher; she is a true advocate for children with special education needs.
I wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable educator who genuinely cares success in every child.” SEND, 1-to-1 and group class student, Age 10
