Recent Testimonials

We get frequent feedback from parents and children. The extracts below are from just a few of the many emails and letters we received between November 2009 and March 2010. The letter X has been used to preserve privacy.

Things are going really well at school for S. He is achieving consistently (frankly) amazing results in maths at a level even just a month ago I would not have expected. Most of the work at school he finds too easy, so his teacher is giving him much more challenging exercises. Thanks for all your help; it really is making a huge difference.

T has gained most in terms of maturity and being able to take some responsibility for his own learning. What amused me the most last week was his comment “I am bored without my Jo Work!” Thank you from us both – LITP worked well for us. It is a fantastic format.

We spend time in the morning and evening and she loves the work. N is committed and says that she will do anything I ask to do to help her….but it’s also fun for her, so it’s not a problem. It’s incredibly heartening for me to see this sense of personal responsibility in one so young, and to be able to do something together that we both recognise is constructive.

What I have realised from this experience is how thoroughly unequipped I have been so far to support my daughter in her learning. I have relied on school and now realise that this is a mistake. I can see the gaps and can also appreciate how much parents can do if they have the tools. I mourn the wasted years! Thankfully she is learning fast and making very few mistakes.

It was no hardship to recommend you to my friends, from one business woman to another. I think you have a great product.

A has worked out percentages and is thrilled with herself. Her confidence is growing all the time and she has developed a really good work ethic that I notice around her school work. She has some good results from tests at school which she is pleased with. I am so glad we did this course. You have helped and empowered me to help her channel her energies in a positive way. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Her confidence, accuracy and speed have grown immensely. N is amazed at how much work she has completed in such a short time, and remains very focussed….. We were nearly late for school last week because she wanted to do just a few more pages.

Sam asked to see the work yesterday and as a result L wants to work with you. It’s been a delight and pleasure for me to share my experience with Sam and I have waxed lyrical about LITP for good reason.

23/01/10

E has sat all her entrance exams and we now have to wait for the results. Thanks very much for all of your help, expertise, intellect and encouragement. E was very well prepared, so collectively we could have not done any more!

26/01/10

Great news – F has got into the school of his choice. We are absolutely delighted and were discussing with him how much Lessons in the Post made this happen. His school has been hugely impressed with his improvement in maths particularly. Thank you so much for all your help and making F’s dream come true. We will keep recommending.

I thought you’d be interested to know that X is doing extremely well at Aylesbury Grammar School. She is very happy. We recently went to a parents’ evening and saw all 8 of her teachers. They all knew who she was and one teacher described her as ‘my highest achiever.’ Another told me that she is in the best place for her. She has been earmarked to take part in maths challenge days representing her school against others in the summer term. We are so very proud of her.

14/02/10

We recently recommended to you to a friend of ours who have a grandchild in the same position as C whom you helped 15 years ago. Both C and H are doing very well. C qualified as a doctor in July 2009, happy and fulfilled and H is on course to complete his masters in mechanical engineering. Thanks for everything. You did make a difference.

22/02/10

Thank you for making the work so interesting and fun. Your lessons cover everything he needs to know and although some evenings it is difficult to find the time as A can be set a lot of homework, we always manage to keep on top of your work. The teachers have certainly noticed an improvement. Without LITP A certainly wouldn’t be at the level he is today.

27/02/10

S is really enjoying the lessons – she has completed the first 2 weeks and will be starting week 3 today. We make sure that we go over any questions that she has got wrong or doesn’t understand.

02/03/10

We have some very good news. X has a place at Latymer which was his first choice. Thank you very much for everything you did. LITP was a very sound investment for us – if only they all worked out that well!

02/03/10

X did the Ipswich School entrance exam and was called back the following week for a scholarship interview. He was awarded a fee remission of one-third off, which was great. Then he was offered a place at Colchester Royal Grammar School. I now have all three of my children at the Colchester grammar schools!

02/03/10

X got into Queen Elizabeth’s School, Barnet which was his first choice, so we are all delighted. Many thanks for the excellent lessons which have certainly helped him on his way.

05/03/10

B is doing really well, and I am noticing a difference in his confidence. I think we are speeding up and I am thrilled so far. Very glad I rang. Thank you.

03/03/10

You have performed wonders on her….. She is now one of the best in her class and it really notices. She doesn’t worry nearly so much about school work anymore because she’s up at the top. This has been a real help, so thank you.

11/03/10

S has grown up such a lot over the last 6 months – in confidence as well as size – this is a tough year for him but I have never seen him happier or more engaged.

11/03/10

N told me yesterday the good news that she has been moved to the top group in maths. They had some assessments last week so it appears her teacher has noticed an improvement.

16/03/10

Still slightly stunned that X has got into Colchester, and really cannot begin to thank you both so, so much for all your help and guidance and endless support.

19/03/10

I am the best at maths now and when everyone was getting help on the whiteboards I didn’t have to help and was allowed to go straight on to the sheets.

23/03/10

I would like you to know the following: X was awarded the bronze medal for the UK maths challenges. There are 4 finalists from his school and X was the only one who got a medal prize. B is on track to achieve an excellent set of grades for his Advanced levels and this will help towards his university applications.
