About me
Qualifications & Experience

Her insightful sessions helped me craft a compelling narrative that highlighted my interests and potential for the program. Throughout the process, Polly’s patience and linguistic expertise were evident. With Polly’s guidance, I felt confident in presenting the best version of myself in my application.
2.5 months ago, I needed an hour to write an introduction. But now I got 6.5 on the writing paper!!! I never thought I would get this band. I would not achieve this without Polly's tutoring. Especially, you will ask me to do corrections before you mark it, it is a good chance to know my mistakes and think about how to correct.
My son started learning with Polly during the summer vacation, for about three months. He learned many new words and his writing improved. Polly was very dedicated. In addition to individual classes, she also arranged conversation sessions with several students. Polly first assigned each student a different topic, allowing them to prepare their conversation content and gather information beforehand. Then, they could speak freely during the conversation sessions, which made my son more confident and proactive in his speaking skills.

About me
PERSONAL APPROACH & MENTORSHIP Families often tell me that I am more than a tutor—I am a friendly coach. I recognise each student's unique strengths, personality, and learning style. I walk with them through every challenge, whether supervising homework, preparing for school assessments, teaching etiquette and manners, or listening when they need support. I believe that in the AI era, the human elements of empathy, encouragement, and companionship are more essential than ever. I aim to be not just a tutor but a trusted guide and mentor. I maintain long-term relationships with my clients, with the majority working with me for two years or more as I guide their children through different educational stages. Additionally, I have over two years of experience as a homesharer and elderly companion in a private London household, which has strengthened my understanding of discretion, organisation, respect for privacy, and maintaining appropriate boundaries.
