Testimonials
A higher level lesson for extended metaphors. This worked well for our higher level learners.
From the time, I saw the six text type video by Taughtly, I knew Sarah is a knowledgeable and experienced teacher! What we discovered after signing up, was that she adapts to the students learning style and engages the student well, helping build comfort and confidence around the language. I am thankful to her for helping my son do well in his FLE to reach a high A in the IGCSE.
Great energy and environment in class and always made me feel welcome! Gave me a spark for writing I didn’t think was possible, and gave me consistent practice and tips that have left me more than prepared for my exams!
Sarah’s a lovely human being and every English student should get to have a teacher like her once.
