LS Tuition - Edinburgh Primary School Tutor

"Wonderful teacher!"
We are so thankful that we approached Lydia for support for our son’s learning during P4. His confidence seemed very low, especially with his maths, and generally he felt like he ‘couldn’t do it’ .
The journey has been nothing but transformative in that we now realise he is completely capable in maths, he just needed his confidence unlocked. With time and patience our son no longer has an aversion to learning and is more than happy to see Lydia each week. Her holistic approach demonstrates a deep understanding of how each child requires different types of input and pace to unlock their abilities. We are so grateful to Lydia for brining calmness and fun to our son’s learning journey. He is in P6 now but tackling P7 level topics and showing unbelievable potential in both literacy and maths. Thank you Lydia and LS Tuition!

"Having missed a lot of school through…"
Having missed a lot of school through the pandemic and finding it difficult to focus in bigger class environments our daughter had fallen quite far behind her peers and was struggling academically.
Thanks to Lydia and Ashley’s support, encouragement and care we’ve seen our daughter’s confidence with maths and comprehension steadily grow over the past two years.
It’s been a game changer and we’re so grateful to Lydia and Ashley for their hard work and tailored approach to our daughter’s learning and development.
On top of all this Lydia and Ashley are both lovely human beings and have built an incredible bond with her which makes learning less of a chore and something she genuinely looks forward to.
Thanks so much Lydia and Ashley :)

"Fantastic Team!"
Our son has difficulty with literacy due to autism, which affected his confidence. Lydia immediately understood his needs and tailored lessons specifically for him. She created effective strategies to help him cope with different learning challenges and actively incorporated feedback. Thanks to her support, our son has made immense progress in both literacy and numeracy, and his confidence has grown significantly.
A huge thank you to Lydia and the fantastic team at LS Tuitions!

"First class tutoring at LS"
We brought our son to LS almost 2 years ago now with focus primarily on numeracy and maths, a subject he found challenging and in which he lacked a little confidence.
Working with Lydia since then has been excellent and really helped to increase his confidence, bringing him on to the extent that he is now placed in the higher group for maths in the classroom at school. Whilst some aspects of maths still challenge him, we really appreciate Lydia's ongoing support in consolidating what he is learning in school and to maintain him at the level he has now achieved.
Working holistically, Lydia was also able to identify aspects of literacy which could be improved and which we were previously unaware of. There is therefore little doubt that she has brought about a significant all round improvement in his skill set across all domains as well as increased his self-confidence which is key to fulfilling potential.
At a personal level, Lydia is kind and cares deeply about the children she tutors and who in turn all clearly adore her. She is a fun, natural teacher who has created an environment at LS which is warm, nurturing and which works extremely well.

"It’s been fantastic to have Lydia’s…"
It’s been fantastic to have Lydia’s support for my daughter. She has really helped build her confidence and making sure she has a strong foundation in maths and literacy. My daughter now feels much more capable and positive about her learning, which has been wonderful to see. Lydia is patient, encouraging, and really knows how to bring out the best in my daughter. She looks forward to every lesson she has with Lydia!

"Lydia is a wonderful teacher"
Lydia is a wonderful teacher, she helped our daughter gain in confidence and of course improved her maths and literacy skills. She creates a warm and supportive environment for her students to learn and focuses on building that relationship throughout so they feel safe to learn. Would highly recommend her.

"Positive, effective tutoring."
Lydia is a wonderful, talented tutor with a great team of teachers. We really appreciated the opportunity to get a comprehensive assessment of our P4 son's abilities.
Lydia guided our son through the private school entry assessment process with positivity and kindness. Not only was he fully prepared for his exams - he wants to keep tutoring with Lydia as he loves it so much. Thank you Lydia and team.

"Great tutors!"
From the beginning LS Tuition was very friendly and engaging. They listened to the concerns we had about our seven year old son and carried out a thorough assessment of him before we started his tutoring.
Ashley was assigned to him and he absolutely loved having her as his tutor. She formed a strong bond with him and found a way of getting him to be enthusiastic about his lessons.
In the classroom they have a wide range of resources, including some great educational games, and they always take the time to give parents feedback after each lesson, which we really appreciated. The tutors are genuinely interested in getting to know the kids and helping them through their educational journeys.
We feel very fortunate to have had the pleasure of working with them.
Thank you so much!

"KS1 Summer School 2024"
My child attended the KS1 Summer School in 2024. They have a diagnosis of Autism and Dyspraxia, so finding activities which they can access effectively during the school holidays is very tricky. The small group setting at LS Tuition, combined with the 'whole week sign-up' (i.e. meaning that the same children are there every day), along with the high level of staff professionalism / expertise, made Summer School a perfect fit for them ... they had an amazing week. Communication with me (i.e. as a parent) was also excellent ... I could not recommend Lydia and her team highly enough ... first class! :-)

"Lydia & her team were very…"
Lydia & her team were very professional, friendly and engaging with our son.
We saw him grow in confidence and ability as a result of attending LS Tuition.
The teaching approach was very measured for the given stages of learning. Moreover, the positive reinforcements and moral boosts that our son enjoyed was very encouraging & much appreciated.
