Perfect! I have had the privilege of working with Iona for over a year as my UCAT tutor, and her support has been invaluable throughout my preparation. From the very beginning, she has been unwavering in her commitment to helping me succeed. Iona has provided consistent guidance, encouragement, and motivation, even during the most challenging times. Her dedication is truly remarkable. she is firm in her approach and will not rest until her students reach their full potential.
Thanks to Iona, I feel not only better prepared for the UCAT but also more confident in my abilities. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone seeking a dedicated and passionate tutor who will go the extra mile to ensure success. Thank you Iona.View more reviews

Since Iona began tutoring my youngest child, I have seen a major improvement in my daughter’s English Literature and Language grades, enthusiastic engagement in conversation as well as our home library and significant change in her attitude towards problem-solving.
I believe in addition to covering the curriculum and standard analysis and writing techniques, the pedagogical approach Iona uses has really brought my daughter out of her shell and led her to discovering a newfound love for her chosen subject. I can’t thank her enough for her patience and support.Really good tutor who supported me in creating tailored strategies for each section that improved my UCAT scores to between 2800 to 3000 from scores of 2600.
Her exceptional communication skills and deep understanding of the UCAT exam made a huge difference in my preparation. She is patient, thorough, and incredibly motivating. Her guidance not only improved my scores but also enhanced my overall confidence in tackling medical school applications. I couldn't have achieved my results without her help.
