    Just wanted to say thank you for today, it was A's first time of speaking on her own and for her it was a huge step forward. She only does your online class and was absolutely terrified at the start but now eagerly asks for the session plans in advance so she can compose some answers throughout the week. I just wanted to let you know what a positive learning experience this has been for A.

    Parent 

    My son can be resistant to speaking and contributing in online classes but has really enjoyed Amy's sessions. He has engaged in the debates with us off camera and is gaining in confidence with sharing his opinions. Amy encourages but doesn't force children out of their comfort zone. Her experience in teaching shines through and her friendly demeanour helps my son feel more comfortable in taking part, thank you Amy.
