Perfect! Very experienced and knowledgeable tutor who has had a very positive impact on my child.
Perfect! In the countdown to exam day, Sylvia massively boosted my confidence in Geography, with targeted practice towards exam technique and the areas which we had not had time to fully cover in our school lessons. In regards to course structure, I had been incredibly confused for the past two years about the seemingly endless case studies, examples and sections. Sylvia identified it and explained it all to me in minutes. I am so thankful!
Perfect! Excellent tutor and very helpful for my son.
Perfect! Good communication and seems knowledgeable and helpful

Perfect! Always prepared. Great lesson structure
- Kameron was a pleasure to teach, we looked at exam techniqueSee the response Sylvia :
Perfect! We have had one lesson with Sylvia and my daughter found her lesson extremely helpful. She gave her excellent advice about the textbooks and case studies. Sylvia’s explanations were clear and easy to understand and her calm, considered manner helped create a comfortable, reflective atmosphere. Sylvia sent us a lot of extremely useful resources exactly tailored to our needs - they really reflect her vast professional experience. She also very thoughtfully addressed our concerns about exam scheduling. Her guidance in this matter was invaluable- we weren’t aware it was possible to do Papers 1 & 2 in separate sessions.
- Roshana is s pleasure to teach. She is an intelligent and motivated studentSee the response Sylvia :

She is a detailed and patient teacher. My son improved after her lessons!
Sylvia was honestly one of the biggest reasons I achieved an A* in my Geography NEA. Her support throughout the whole process was incredible, she always explained things clearly, and made sure I fully understood how to improve my work, whilst giving me the most complex techniques needed for top marks. Her exam practice sessions were also amazing and helped me feel so much more confident going into exams. I’ve jumped over 3 grades with her! She’s patient, encouraging, and genuinely cares about her students doing well. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
Sylvia is very good, knowing how to improve student’s weakness. Highly recommended!
A very intelligent and helpful tutor with excellent resources and a calm approach to teaching
Sylvia is a really great tutor who takes a lot of time to explain things to you that you don’t understand, which is really helpful. She is very patient and understanding if you get confused and is always willing to help and persevere with you. Sylvia is also really great at going through and planning practice questions to consolidate knowledge.
Sylvia has been tutoring me for the past few months, and within the first few weeks I could already see a significant improvement in my work quality and ethic. She has been very supportive, helping me weekly with exam questions and school work.
Sylvia came with an excellent reference from her current school where it was evident her success rate was very high, hence the reason we chose her . Her communication is excellent and my son is certainly happy . His feedback is that Sylvia knows her subject very well
Great tutor with many years of experience of teaching IGCSE and A-Level geography. Her lessons are packed with useful and detailed geography case studies. Explanation of the knowledge was we'll fluent and easy to understand. Definitely a great tutor for preparing exams as she can give you lots of useful tips in terms of answer exam question and ensure you hitting all the top boundaries.
At GCSE I tended to struggle with geography but she helped me to get past this with great revision techniques and helped me to obtain amazing results
Sylvia was extremely helpful in providing me with wider geographical knowledge, not just that of my A level syllabus. Practicing exam questions was beneficial as I was able to recognise my weaknesses, therefore improving my technique. Her teaching style is patient and at a good pace.
Sylvia Hutchinson is a teacher with a proven record of excellence in the delivery of Geography. In the 5 years and more I have known her, the Geography grades for A Level and GCSE at Princess Helena College have often been the best results for any subject in the school; indeed, with CAT scores of +3 for A Level and +1.1 for GCSE this year she has easily retained this position. Her skills have recently been acknowledged by the Head, as she takes the lead in promoting and spreading good practice throughout the school.
She takes pride in her work and is tireless in support of the most and least able. She has a great deal of experience as an examination marker; her grading and understanding of assessment are excellent.View more recommendations
