REVIEWS FROM PREVIOUS STUDENTS
Review from Fi. G: "My son has just completed year one of the IGCSE Computer Science with Diana. He is continuing to enjoy the online course for the second year, due to Diana’s expert knowledge of the subject and clear communication. Her friendly and encouraging teaching approach also suits him. I would really recommend this course to any parents, to whom, like me, feel out-of-their-depth with this subject! I will certainly be signing up my other children when they reach this stage."
Review from Claire M: "My daughter took Diana's IGCSE Computer Science class last year. We could not ask for a more knowledgeable, supportive and understanding teacher. Diana's passion for the subject was infectious and engaging and my daughter felt that Diana made coding particularly fun. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Diana for Computer Science lessons, her calm, patient demeanor and comprehensive resources and guidance helped my daughter to achieve a grade 9."
Review from V. R: "Diana taught this course with confidence and passion, sharing her love of technology and the sciences and making it accessible to everyone in the group. This was my son’s first IGCSE and she made him feel at ease and boosted his confidence. My son has dyslexia and dysgraphia, however her fantastic hands-on teaching style meant that this was not a barrier to his learning. The small group sizes enabled regular individual feedback and direction. She also clearly explained how we as parents could support our children’s learning.
The course was great value for money and was very flexible and we were able to access the material when we were unable to access the lessons in person. We were also made to feel very welcome while waiting for my son. I would not hesitate to recommend Diana to anyone on their home education journey; her dedication and my son’s hard work enabled him to receive a 9 in his first IGCSE at 14. He is continuing to code for pleasure."

Review from Katie P: "My daughter has been studying computer science with Diana for a year and is going to take her exams this week. Diana has taken a 13yr old who had no knowledge of the subject and turned her into someone who is confident she's going to pass her GCSE. Amazing! This is because Diana knows her subject, cares about how well the students understand, and is able to coax them through the wobbles they may have along the way. Diana, thank you so much for all your work and support."
