The Education Hotel Reviews 41

Top service and worth every penny. From the initial consultation to the matching with the right tutor, to the flexibility with lessons. Daughter got top offers. Thanks to Jemma and Maria.

​We cannot recommend this Jemma's Interviewing Masterclass enough! We are so grateful for the expert help and guidance provided. The tools we received were incredibly valuable and gave our daughter the confidence she needed to articulate her thoughts clearly and stay composed under pressure during her 11+ interviews.
​If you are looking for someone to help your child navigate the interview process with skill and confidence, look no further!

My daughter greatly built her confidence this year due to the group online sessions from Claire. Her lessons were thoughtfully planned, ensuring that all the students were contributing to the lesson. The personalised feedback for these lessons was thoughtful and productive.

Tazy has been really helpful, friendly and proactive to get things done and supporting my daughter a lot through her journey to have her confidence and proficiency in maths year 8 topics.

Dear Jemma, The 11+ Interview Master Class was instrumental in supporting my daughter during her private school interviews.

Thanks to the preparation provided, she has received offers from City of London School for Girls, Latymer Upper School, North London Collegiate (NLCS), and James Allen’s Girl's School.

She has frequently praised your masterclass, highlighting how it equipped her to respond to interview questions confidently and effectively. Your course was the only preparation she undertook for these interviews.

We are deeply grateful for the time and effort you dedicated to running this course—thank you sincerely!

I have been a part of the group on WhatsApp for year 5 parents help. It is tremendously helpful. A lot of time we get stuck in solving some questions and when posted there, people and Jemma are so willing to help and find an answers, not to forget too promptly as well.

I’d suggest this group for all parents preparing their kids for 11+.

My daughter is thriving and gaining so much confidence since being tutored by the education hotel. The tutor has a wonderful approach and the group setting is very effective over 1 to 1 tutoring for my 9 year old. I highly recommended The Education Hotel

Excellent tutor - would highly recommend
Thorough, organised and good at explaining concepts.

Jemma was professional and detailed when conducting the mock interview and providing personalized feedback afterwards. Her tips were on point which really helped to make a difference in the end and gave my daughter confidence to speak confidently on the day. My daughter was offered a place at one of the top independent schools in the UK.

As a family we have found the service provided absolutely phenomenal, we were paired with Nichola for 11+ revision and she was an ideal fit for my child. Patient, understanding and gave a fantastic grounding that gave confidence in the exams. The whole team were responsive whenever we had questions. They were also helpful when advising on scholarship applications. Ultimately we ended up with offers from both schools we applied too, both with scholarship offers.
Huge thanks to the entire team

Really impressed with the level of teaching. Very structured. The children are kept engaged. Some really helpful tips that have escalated learning. Plus homework marked with detailed feedback. Highly recommend.

My daughter really struggled with her maths and as she started year 6 I needed a tutor to help prepare her for her SATS. The match was perfect first and foremost. Nicola was so patient and would go over things 5 times if needed. My daughter enjoyed her sessions due to this. After 6 months working with Nicola, my daughters confidence grew as did her maths skills and I am delighted to say that my daughter recently passed her maths SATS exam. Bearing in mind she was below the expected age at the beginning of this year I couldn’t be happier, my daughter is now starting secondary school feeling positive and excited about maths. Thank you so much education hotel and of course Nicola xx

The tutoring that my daughter has received from all of her tutors has been exceptional. The Education Hotel came to our rescue in our hour of need and have delivered an exceptional service. I would highly recommend the Education Hotel

My son did an interview masterclass and mock interview with Jemma.

As a state school applicant to selective independent schools in London I was keen to get some expert support in this area. He found it all helpful and was ultimately offered places everywhere he interviewed so I do think this helped him and his confidence. Would recommend doing this with Jemma to people going through the process.

Thanks to Jemma and Education Hotel for the support and encouragement she gave to my daughter for the interview preparation. The material and mock interview are highly recommended. Jemma provided us detailed feedback post the mock which was very helpful.

We engaged with Education hotel many months ago and found them excellent. Rebecca is an exceptional tecaher and has helped a lot. The intereview 1:1 with Jemma was very helpful and gave us concrete actions to work on without sounding very made up. My son cleared the 10plus at a very prominent school.

Claudine is doing a great job supporting my child with his maths. He likes her approach and patience.

Huge thank you for all your patience in coaching my son this year. He seems to really value the time he spends on the tutoring sessions and it has definitely boosted his confidence – not only in certain subjects but also from the help you’ve given him in just getting his head around revision plans and putting things in perspective a bit.

George was a dynamite tutor. He fuelled up Ethan's learning capacity with full power at a short space of time. Ethan had learned to analyse complicated texts and comprehension questions to give well-interpreted answers. He had learned to analyse paintings and use sensory imagery and emotive language for descriptive writings and narratives. We especially liked his intelligent mnemonic 'CAD' and '5Ws' which helped memorise the essential technique to make a good piece of writing.
George's English grammar was excellent and he was knowledgeable. Ethan learned not only reading comprehension and writing with him, but also general knowledge, history etc.
Finally, George's lovely, polite and patient personality was an outstanding merit. Ethan and I liked George immensely.
I would easily give George a full mark for his tutoring.
We wished we would cross paths with him again in future.

We signed up with The Education Hotel tuition for my sons in secondary school who needed support. Jemma Smith is a professional tutor and takes care to explain processes and answers questions patiently. Her interview masterclasses have helped many too, for which I have recommended friends who have been most impressed. Her help in many Facebook groups is invaluable. Honest and straightforward.
