Engaging Weekly Sessions

“Our daughter enjoys the sessions. She finds them very engaging and looks forward to learning with Marie every week. She is making good progress. Thank you for all your help.”

A valued parent

Rapid Reading Improvement

“‘Marie has been an excellent tutor to my 7-year-old child. I enrolled her in Year One as she was struggling with English and Maths and we felt the need for some extra attention.

Marie has done a fab job of tutoring her and enhancing my daughter’s English and Maths skills. She is now in Year Two and is doing really well with her studies. Her reading has improved rapidly and it wouldn’t have been possible without the extra support received from Marie.

My daughter looks forward to the weekly sessions […] and enjoys the learning pattern that has been set. Marie ensures that the session is interactive and filled with fun. Great job Marie, keep it up!”

Engaging Online Sessions

“Marie has been great at tutoring English to my son. She manages to change the pace to keep him interested throughout each session, which is a challenge when he’s not engaged in learning, and this is over a Zoom lesson too.

The different games and apps used are good fun and keep the interest going. Marie has also been great at switching tools to use when we discovered my son’s new Chromebook didn’t do all the expected things with Zoom any more.

I highly recommend Marie for your tutoring needs, no matter where you are located.”

Chloe, parent

Noticeable School Improvement

“Since my son (now in year 6) started tuition sessions with Marie, I have noticed a good improvement in his school work. He is now achieving much better on the subjects covered (Maths and English). His last year-end report showed a good deal of improvement.

My son enjoys the tuition sessions as Marie engages him very well and keeps the sessions interactive. Marie is an excellent communicator, always providing me with necessary updates and changes.

I recommend Marie as a tutor and am grateful to her as she is helping my son grow in confidence.”

Creative and Effective Teaching

“Marie has done such a great job with our son and he absolutely loves his sessions with her and always looks forward to them. Marie is amazing at finding new ways to keep [him] engaged and on track and he has made lots of progress already. He is using lots of the techniques he’s learnt with Marie […] at school too.”

Tailored and Flexible Support

“Marie has been helping our 10-year-old daughter particularly with SPAG and telling the time. Marie has been brilliant – she understood what we wanted to get out of the tutoring before she started, then fully assessed our daughter and has worked to address areas she struggles with. Marie’s communication with us is excellent and she has been really flexible. Our daughter really enjoys the sessions and I’m so pleased that we found her!”

Sarah, parent

Calm and Focused SEND Support

“Marie is fantastic, friendly and has such a calm but firm demeanour, which is why she was the only choice for us when it came to finding a SEND tutor for our son. She has a fun approach to tutoring and breaks the sessions down into bite-sized chunks of different activities to help keep him focused, which isn’t always easy. Thank you for all your continued support and for helping him grow.”

Tracy, parent

Patient and Encouraging

“My daughter is homeschooled and gets home tutoring with This Child Can. Her tutor Marie is lovely and my daughter really enjoys learning with her. She can become easily distracted and hard to focus sometimes; however, Marie is really patient which is what any child needs whilst learning. I definitely recommend.”

Nikita, parent

A Wealth of Experience

“‘Marie has been working with my son since July 2023, keeping him up to date with the UK school curriculum in English and Maths (we live abroad). She makes the classes engaging and fun, which is important for my easily distracted 11-year-old!

She clearly has a wealth of teaching experience, and she has succeeded where other less experienced but highly qualified tutors did not. My son genuinely enjoys her classes. I highly recommend her as a tutor.”

A valued parent

Transformative Autism Support

“‘It’s with great pleasure that I write this […] recommendation for Marie Warner. She is the best teacher for my autistic boy who had really challenging behaviours and won’t even sit in a place.

He is really good at learning now. Marie teaches him with music and games he really enjoys through the learning. She [has been] teaching him for four years now. We are really doing well. Thank you Marie for your dedication and hard work.”

Melini, parent

Empowering Confidence and Joy

“‘Big thank you to Marie for her extremely professional and well-organised approach to teaching. Most importantly, the lessons are tailored and flexible based on the evolving needs of the child. Both my girls love their lessons with Marie. It has empowered them with confidence and fostered their joy of learning.”

A.S., parent

Personalised, Fun and Engaging

“‘Having a child who is out of school, unable to talk to people, means it’s almost impossible to access most things to help your child learn. Marie took great care and love to personalise the learning for my child so she could access it in a fun, engaging way.”

Jennie, parent

Patient, Child-Focused Support

“‘My daughter can be quite challenging in lessons, but Marie is calm, reassuring and patient with her. Marie has tailored a class to my daughter’s needs which means she remains focused and engaged. She has progressed so much with Marie’s support. Marie keeps me updated with progress and is very timely with her communication.”
