Angela brings 15 years of teaching experience from her previous career as a primary school teacher, bringing structured pedagogical expertise to driving instruction.

They offer flexible lesson durations from one to two hours, with Chris favouring 1.5-hour sessions based on proven student benefit. Crucially, they guarantee full value—students receive exactly what they pay for with no truncated lessons.
