    Being an experienced educator and a good listener allows Isabelle to identify each student’s own strengths and areas for development, enabling her to provide the necessary support to ensure the student is ready to face challenges with confidence and maximise their performance.

    In her free time, Isabelle enjoys keeping fit and healthy, cooking, reading and listening to music.

    Testimonial
    Isabel has tutored our son for a number of years and he has just received outstanding chemistry, biology and physics GCSE results. She’s kind and patient but ensures students reach their potential. She knows precisely what’s required for the exams whilst also allowing students to go off topic in areas they enjoy. Our son always looked forward to his lessons. Nothing was too much trouble. We wound thoroughly recommend her.

    TESTIMONIAL

    “Isabelle has been tutoring my son in Maths and Science since September. She is an excellent tutor. My son enjoys his sessions with her, and he says she makes everything easy to understand. Isabelle is reliable, patient and kind and my son has made great progress with her and as a result his confidence has also increased. Unfortunately, he has missed a lot of school due to ill health but thanks to his lessons with Isabelle he has been able to keep up and do well despite his lengthy absences.”

    TESTIMONIAL

    “It is with great pleasure that I recommend Isabelle Flamant as a science tutor. She has been working with my son, a reluctant student, on all three sciences as set by the GCSE syllabus, for the last many months. The difference in his academic performance has been dramatic. Isabelle is an impressively calm and patient teacher, willing to re-visit topics until knowledge is secure. She is also flexible and fluid between the subjects; their weekly sessions focus on my son’s needs at the time, not necessarily the chronology of the syllabus. Isabelle has been a very positive addition to my son’s educational experience. ”

    TESTIMONIAL

    “Isabelle is a calm, focused and professional tutor. She tutored our daughter in GCSE Maths and Chemistry on alternate weeks in preparation for her exams. This was an excellent way of supplementing her full-time learning without overloading her. Isabelle was able to fill in any gaps, tackle difficult questions and help build confidence in both subject areas. This resulted in a two point increase in her grades and was achieved without undue anxiety or stress. Isabelle was always on time, well organised and gave her time generously, preparing work for the sessions and following up with information where needed. I would not hesitate to recommend Isabelle and her experience in multiple subject areas is a definite plus.”
