Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 12 reviews)

Gallison began working with our son when he was in year 4 and came to our home for 8 years on a weekly basis, teaching both English and maths,

She is dependable and highly organised and will always give time after each lesson to give detailed feedback. She really knows how to achieve the best from students. My son always looked forward to her visits and did his best for her. He has really thrived and developed a very studious nature.

He sat his GCSEs this year and achieved level 8 in both English Language and Literature and a level 9 in maths! A great part of his success is thanks to Gallison.

We are so grateful for her patience and dedication and would highly recommend her as a tutor.

Dear Jackie,

Thank you so much for the very positive review.
It was always a pleasure coming to teach at your home.
Your son deserves his excellent grades and I wish him every success in his future studies.

We have had this tutor for 4 years and we first had Miss Allison for my elder son. In two months she improved my son's handwriting , then she helps my son in all the areas in English and Maths. Such as answering comprehension questions fully and difficult areas in maths. Miss Allison makes sure whoever she teaches that whenever a student gets a question wrong she makes sure that the student understands the question , by going through it thoroughly and explaining the question step by step. If you request any sort of topic on Maths and English , Miss Allison gives it at the next lesson. I think this exceptional . After putting my second child in , his scores on his report started going up . Then he fixed his handwriting and started doing comprehension , addition and spelling only at the age of 5 years old. I strongly recommend her Platinum service so think twice before hiring a different tutor.

Thank you so much for your positive review.

It's a pleasure working with your children.

Credit for their progress is also due to their great attitude to learning and hard work!

I was recommended Gallison's services by a friend in Harrow. I was particularly interested in online tuition during the lockdown/school closure period.

The lessons for my son have been very beneficial in preparation for his 11+ exams.

Gallison is very organised and well prepared. During the lessons,my son enjoys working alongside his teacher . He enjoys explaining his reasoning and says that he now understands lots of new things in maths ( especially algebra and word problems ).In English/verbal he enjoys looking at harder comprehension texts with his teacher,as she always makes sure he understands the work. She has been setting a lot of homework through Google Classroom and quickly marks and returns the work with helpful comments.

I fully recommend this teacher and hope that my year 4 daughter can start lessons in September.

We are really happy with Miss.Allison who is with our daughter more than a year. Normally our daughter will show less interest with teachers if she doesn’t like them but with Allison she is so happy and comfortable.After Miss.Allison started teaching our daughter Maths And English, those are her favourite ones especially Maths ..!!!! All credits goes to Miss.Allison....!!! Thank you

Our daughter's reading and writing have improved. Her class teacher was so surprised about her beautiful handwriting and appreciated very much. Allison is always on time and will let us know any changes in advance. I have recommended Allison to my friends and would not hesitate to recommend Alison's tution for anyone looking for genuinely experienced teacher in the future as well !!!!!!
Thank you

Gallison is tutoring maths and English to my son. I find my son has improved a lot since she took over. Gallison is very well prepared for each lesson and uses very engaging materials. My son very much likes to work with her.
I would strongly recommend her service.

Allison has been with us for almost a year now and I am very happy to have such a committed teacher to help my son. She takes most of the credit for his dramatic improvement in his handwriting and positive attitude towards his work. I like the fact that she takes the initiative in providing additional materials when required to help my child when he's struggling to understand a particular concept. She knows how to create a rapport with children and the time she spends with them is always productive. I would highly recommend her and commend her organisation and dedication.

I am a teacher with two daughters, 5 and 7 years old. I met Allison through childcare.co.uk two years ago. My older daughter's English and Maths has improved massively; she is more confident in her studies now! My youngest one is looking forward to starting with Allison in September.

Allison is extremely organised teacher and serious about homework which she sets after every lesson. Her years of experience in teaching is well worth what we are paying for. I highly recommend Allison to any parents who is looking for a great private tutor in KS1 and KS2. My daughter is getting ready for the 11+ exams. Allison is stretching her in the right direction. My child is aware of her teacher's high expectations and tries to meet her standards. We are very pleased to have an excellent tutor, Allison!

Our 5 year old daughter takes tution lessons from Alison. We have searched a lot to find a right teacher for our child. We came across Alison's profile on childcare website and luckily managed to get a slot for our daughter. I must admit that we are extremely happy that we found Alison. She has great experience and obvious skills in teaching children. She has lots of patience.
My daughter's reading and writing improved a lot. Recently her school teachers appreciated her beautiful handwriting. Alison deserves lot of that credit.Alison is never bothered just about money. I would not hesitate to recommend Alison's tution for anyone looking for genuinely experienced teacher.

Allison has been my daughter's English and Maths Tutor for the last 18 months, coming to visit our home to teach on a weekly basis.

During this period our daughter has made considerable progress thanks to Allison. She shows considerable patience and empathy,while maintaining a firm approach.She is always actively engaging our daughter in the lessons,combining learning and fun.It's also very clear that Allison puts considerable thought and planning into lesson

.Allison not only keeps me fully informed of my daughter's progress,but also is keen to involve me with follow up activities and is willing to listen to my queries and concerns.

In summary,she is a wonderful teacher who treats her pupils as individuals and cares for them.I have no hesitation in recommending her.
