Additional information

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and dedication shown by Orquidea, who tutored my child after school over the past few months. From the very first session, it was evident that Orquidea possesses a rare combination of patience, expertise and a genuine passion for teaching. Orquidea's approach is both structured and adaptable, tailoring each lesson to my child's specific needs. Whether it was reinforcing core concepts in maths, improving reading comprehension, or building confidence in creative writing, Orquidea always found engaging and effective ways to make learning enjoyable. My child, who initially struggled with certain subjects, now approaches their schoolwork with newfound enthusiasm and confidence"
