Testimonies

We are keen to maintain close relationships with the parents of the children attending our classes.

Below are some comments about the supplementary schools.

“My child tends to be a bit slow at picking things up so the small class size is good for him and gives him confidence.”
                    C. Odiatu, King’s Cross evening lessons

“It was a struggle fitting Saturday School in with my daughter's other activities to begin with, but I knew changing days to ensure that she could go to Saturday School would be in her best interest.

I am really surprised how she has taken to going to Saturday School. I thought I would have moans and groans, but it has been positive all the way. She seems to have really connected with the teachers and always starts her homework as soon as she gets home.

She has always been slightly below average, and I know that we still have a long way to go, but I have seen an improvement in her willingness to try and in her attitude.

Thanks to the teachers and to your team for putting the school together. It great to know that there are people out there willing to help parents, like me, who are struggling to help their children improve.”
                    S. Adams, Hammersmith Saturday School

“The quality of the teachers is very high. My daughter enjoys their teaching and follows their instructions carefully. The end of term reports give me a clear idea of my daughter's progress.

I strongly feel that the contributions of the Saturday School have been a blessing to the children. The high standard of teaching and close attention to individual needs have resulted in remarkable progress in the students.”
                    P. Purokayastha, Sanaton Saturday School

“My child has gained an enormous amount of confidence as a direct result of these classes. Since attending he has gone from two years behind where he should be, to a level appropriate for his age. The small classes and one-to-one tuition have enabled him to progress at a spectacular rate… The teachers have good relationships with the parents. They take the time to get to know the children and take on board their individual areas for development.”
