“My daughter has been having weekly tutoring with Janet Atkinson for more than 18 months now. She has special educational needs and struggles with a lot of her school-work, but I was particularly concerned about her incorrect letter formation and illegible handwriting that had become a real barrier to her learning. On meeting Janet, I felt that she would have the experience to deal with my daughter’s extra needs, and the patience to help her unravel some bad habits. Janet also has high expectations – although my daughter really enjoys her sessions, she certainly knows that Mrs Atkinson is kind but tough, and will not accept anything less than her best work! Everyone has remarked on the difference in her handwriting, and there has been a marked improvement in her concentration and confidence too. Her best writing, when she tries hard, is getting really quite good now and she is so proud of herself. Janet’s tutoring is making such a difference that we now come twice a week. Thank you, Mrs A.”
