Private Classes in Your Own Home

Sometimes your children need more customised, personalised tuition.  The private classes I offer to young people in your home are in the following subjects.  All that is required for a private class is your child’s homework area or kitchen table. The private classes run in 10 week semesters. Trial classes are available.
