Testimonials
We would like to express our utmost thanks to the KTL Tuition team for the help they provided to our son who has dyslexia and dyspraxia.
After some research we enrolled him at KTL Tuition. The support over the years in both English and Maths has enabled him to enjoy school and not feel that he was falling behind. As a result, his self confidence has grown hugely over the past few years.
Marie has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. We would like to record the highest possible recommendation to KTL Tuition for other parents.
