Catrin has been a real asset to our group and we are sorry that she is leaving but at the same time, happy for her that she has found a permanent post.
She has proved to be reliable, honest and has demonstrated great integrity in her work with our students. It is difficult finding good calibre teachers who are genuine and have an interest in the students, especially given that the commitment is for a few hours and only one day a week. Catrin not only engaged and enthused them but also showed good insight into each individual and their capabilities. She found a way to make the syllabus more interesting, whilst keeping it relevant for those taking the exam in 2019.
From the beginning, Catrin was keen to ensure that she gave her full and best effort to teaching our group. It was clear that she took her role seriously and that she wanted to inspire the students to perform to their best abilities.
Her quiet strength and understanding of young people worked to the advantage of both parties in developing good teacher/pupil relations. The students appreciated having a teacher who could relate to them l, whilst also retaining her professional stance.
We are grateful to Catrin and Cardiff and Vale Tutors for stepping up at short notice when we were let down by a previous tutor. The stress of trying to find a high calibre teacher in a short space of time was alleviated and exceeded all expectations. Not only would I recommend Cardiff and Vale Tutors but as testament to this, we have enlisted their help a second time in finding a replacement English teacher for Catrin.
Thank you for providing not only an excellent service but a superb teacher. You have rescued the group twice and taken away the stress factor which has previously been a huge burden.
With grateful thanks.
