For Families
“When our family moved to England and our son transferred to an English school, he did not speak a single word of English. It was an overwhelming transition for him — new country, new school, new language, new expectations. In those first weeks, everything felt exhausting for him. And then Susie came into his life, and everything changed.
Susie supported our son with such warmth, skill, and genuine enthusiasm that we can only describe her as a treasure. She understood immediately how challenging the situation was for him and managed, time and time again, to lift him up whenever he felt discouraged. Her ability to motivate him — even in moments when he wanted to give up — was extraordinary.
Her goal was never just to teach him English — it was to empower him. She often said something we will never forget: “When I’ve finished learning with the children, they can fly on their own.” And that is exactly what she achieved with him. Today, he can read and write independently, and he navigates his school life with confidence. As a family, we are deeply grateful for her dedication and her unwavering belief in our son’s abilities. Any parent who has the chance to work with Susie can consider themselves truly fortunate. She is exceptional.”
Mr & Mrs D
“Susie was absolutely fantastic with our daughter. She helped her not only with language skills, she also supported her in getting the confidence to speak, play with other children and feeling confident being in school. Our daughter was able to pick up the language with Susie’s support very quickly.”
Mr & Mrs P
“Susie has been to us and to our children outstanding help from day one. On both a personal and professional level, Susie was always attentive, motivated and always striving to provide the best possible support for our children. In close collaboration with the teachers, Susie supported in lessons, which meant our children were able to quickly become familiar with the English language and at the same time follow the curriculum.”

Mr & Mrs S-R
“Susie is reliable, highly professional, extremely well organised, structured and focussed as well as kind and helpful in every respect. She always impresses me with her positive mindset. She is well-travelled, well-read and always looks beyond borders. I'm so grateful to have her as someone I can rely on anytime.”
Mr & Mrs E
“Susie supported our three children in English and German. At first, the children did not speak the English language. At the end of the support period, the children could express themselves verbally very well and their grammar was on a similar level to their English classmates. She also conveyed English culture, history, customs and traditions.
Throughout the year Susie updated us on progress and conversations took place regularly. If there were any problems, she was always at our side and supported us in all matters.
Susie is incredibly good with children. She is empathetic, caring and interculturally experienced. Due to her warm nature and her patience, the support gave our children a lot of joy and still has a profitable effect today.”

For Schools
“As Headteacher, I have had the pleasure of working with Susie since 2023, during which time she has supported a range of our pupils and families with great skill and professionalism.
Susie worked closely with two families over several months, as well as with groups of EAL pupils in our school. Her impact was evident almost immediately. The children settled into school quickly and happily, developing a strong sense of belonging and confidence in the classroom. Their wellbeing improved noticeably, and they became more willing to engage socially and academically with their peers.
Her work in developing the pupils’ English language skills was particularly impressive. Through targeted, thoughtful support, she enabled clear and measurable progress, helping pupils to access the curriculum more fully and participate with increasing independence.
In addition, Susie carried out assessments for all EAL children across the school. These were thorough, insightful, and extremely valuable in helping staff understand pupils’ needs and next steps. Her communication with teachers and school leaders was consistently clear and constructive, ensuring that strategies were well understood and effectively implemented.
Susie is highly professional, reliable, and deeply committed to the children and families she supports. She works with warmth and sensitivity, building strong relationships that make a lasting difference. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”
