"Very knowledgeable and a great communicator"

I have worked with Hettie in her capacity as an 11+ expert and adviser and it has always been a pleasure. She is extremely knowledgeable and has provided really helpful insights into what is needed for 11+ learning and practice resources. She knows her stuff and can communicate that very clearly.

"An excellent & kind 11+ tutor"

Hettie is an excellent tutor and helped our daughter to prepare effectively for UK 11+ examinations. Her lessons were always well prepared and organised and she provided valuable feedback for the examinations & school interview. Hettie has a kind & calm approach which helped our daughter feel at ease.

"100% recommendation to John "

John was a great help improving our son's confidence and skills in English literature before his GCSE exam. John is upbeat, encouraging and has good structure to his lessons and the pace of the lesson was always made to suit our son. John was always punctual, reliable and always fed back to us straight after lessons but also by email. Hopefully with all of johns help over the last few months are son will reap the rewards in August on result day.

"Highly recommended "

Hettie was kind, encouraging, calm and thorough during my daughter’s tutoring sessions.

My daughter enjoyed her sessions and gained great benefit from them, whether reinforcing current learning or stretching her capabilities.

"Lovely team and tutors"

Lovely team and tutors, approachable, adaptable and communicative. Homework set and our child is enjoying the quality 1-1 time, which he is finding beneficial.

"An amazing tutor"

We have had Hettie as our tutor for the last 4 years, originally for our son and then for our daughter. Initially, we wanted to support to help our son get into his chosen secondary school. Both our children achieved the grades they needed and excelled our expectations achieving top grades.
To us, Hettie’s success has been much more than grade achievements. Through the process of her individualised, creative and well considered online lesson plans, she has made learning fun for my children. Hettie has instilled in them an enthusiasm for subjects they didn’t previously enjoy. They excel almost as much in these subjects as they do the ones where they always possessed natural flare. She has taught them how to handle homework and how to plan ahead. Many of my friends have to check their children’s homework. We have found that the foundations built a with Hettie provide them with the ability to self manage their work load years on.
Not only has Hettie been wonderful with our children but she has been a delight to work with. Her feedback has been insightful, knowledgable and invaluable. She really got the children and our needs from the start. I can’t recommend Hettie, or the process of one to one online tuition, enough. Thank you Hettie!!

"Would recommend"

Reliable, personable, well-organised tutoring. Good communication about lesson dates, times and availability. Great affinity with my daughter - encouraging and supportive.

"Definitely recommended"

We contacted Beam Tuition and their response was quick, informative and very helpful. We trialed one of the tutors which went very well and have since continued with regular tutorials as an extra curricular activity to positively impact studying for GCSE. I would definitely recommenced Beam Tuition.

"Hettie is a fantastic tutor"

Hettie is a fantastic tutor, calm, patient and understanding.
I have two girls with very different personalities and academic needs, year 6 and year 4. They both really enjoy their regular lessons. My eldest started with Hettie in the summer before the Kent test, when she expressed a wish to try for grammar school. Her maths was half way off where it needed to be. She engaged with Hettie's tutoring and was encouraged to put effort in her maths studies through the summer and got a pass!
We then started our youngest on regular lessons to help encourage her with her maths and English. When it came to half term - she insisted to have her lesson even during the holidays. That's a win from an 8yo!
I'd strongly recommend Hettie to anyone looking for a tutor for primary school, for 11+ or Kent test or just for general academic help.

"Amazing tutor!"

We have been absolutely delighted with the tutoring and support Hettie has given to our 12 year old daughter whilst she prepared for Year 8 grammar school entrance tests. Hettie has a perfect combination of warmth, enthusiasm, focus, expertise and clarity. Her lessons flow beautifully and she covers so much during her lessons and through the homework she sets. Hettie is always encouraging, inspiring and extremely supportive. It was wonderful to see our daughter's confidence and knowledge grow over the series of lessons. We feel so fortunate to have found Hettie and are extremely grateful for her support in helping our daughter receive an offer of a grammar school place. We would highly recommend Hettie in every way!
