My Y10 son is studying Computer Science as an extra GCSE via online 1:1 tuition with Holly. He finds the lessons really engaging and is definitely getting more than enough from them to achieve a high GCSE grade when he sits the exam. Holly provide parents with feedback after every lesson and virtual parents evenings are also held. I know I can ask a question at any time and Holly will quickly get back to me. I would definitely recommend TeachAllAboutIt as a private tutor provider.

I would recommend this company to anyone - when I first got in contact Debbie was so accommodating with all my questions and wanted to do the very best in placing my son asap. Zach's teacher Carly & Paul have supported Zach tremendously over the last couple of terms. Setting homework if wanted and feeding back by email to me, I felt that Zach has really been listened too and the tutors really think about their students individually. Anne from finance was very helpful when I didn't understand the invoice and took the time to go over it with me. Teach all about it is somewhere I would recommend without hesitation everyone is very helpful and Zach has jumped two grades since being there and now tells me he loves math. Thank you all so much - we really do appreciate it.

My children have attended online coding workshops with Holly and her colleagues throughout lockdown and my son was lucky enough to attend the DnD club during our recent holiday to England. The staff are always friendly and professional both online and in person. They managed to engage 5 very bored children remotely (which is, frankly, a miracle) and my son enjoyed the DnD club immensely and wants us to move so he can go every week!

My Year 12 son has received a year of 1-1 A level Computer Science tuition with Holly and her colleague. He has enjoyed the course immensely, established great relationships with his tutors, who combine professionalism with friendly approachability. He is already achieving his A grade and is aiming for A*. I have every confidence he can achieve it through Teach All About It.
