I'd like to recommend a brilliant tutor... Betsy Rowlands


Recommended Posts

I'd like to recommend a tutor, Betsy Rowlands. We came to her (through recommendations on this site) to get some help for our 9yo daughter who has always struggled with maths (Betsy also does literacy / English). For us it was about moving our daughter from being behind and feeling unhappy in class to feeling comfortable, relaxed and able to keep up with the rest of the class. Already after just over six months I would say she has achieved this. Our daughter is doing much better in lessons and in tests and her teacher has, unprompted, commented on her significant improvements.


Our daughter gets on very well with Betsy and is very fond of her. She was happy in the one-on-one sessions and, when Betsy felt the time was right, she matched her with another child and it felt like a very good fit. I think Betsy's methods of getting the children to a point where they can explain the maths principles to one another, rather than just being able to 'do' the sum, work very well and are a major contribution to the success of the sessions.

I can definitely recommend Betsy too!

Our Year 5 daughter was not enjoying maths anymore and her decidedly average performance (particularly with times tables) was impacting on her self-confidence...

Enter Betsy!

Recommended to us, over the past few months she has turned the situation around, made maths fun again with her ability to run well-organised sessions in a relaxed atmosphere, whilst still challenging our daughter to progress, to the point where she now really enjoys maths and performs a lot better, which has given her a massive confidence boost!

Betsy also suggested our daughter could share her sessions with another student of similar ability, which has worked out really well as the 2 girls seem to get on well and spur each other on, proving positive for their improvement and financially interesting too, as our weekly sessions now work out cheaper! Thanks, Betsy! 😉

Me to, highly recommend- Betsy.

A year ago , Betsy coached my daughter with her writing. When she started she was behind. She is now performing at a standard that?s above expected for her age. Aside from that she enjoyed the sessions and they definitely gave her more confidence with her writing. I?d recommend her to other people looking for some support with their child?s writing.



Can't thank you enough Betsy.

    • The most recent one did, despite the council making it very difficult for anyone to object (which interestingly they were forced to change for the CPZ consultation and look how that went for them). I will dig out the responses for you when I have more time so you can enlighten yourself.   Ha ha...the language used by councils when they see the results of a consultation and need an out to ignore the views of locals...;-) Did you not notice how this only became a thing once the consultation had been run....one wonders why!? Earl you can bluster all you like but you cannot ignore the fact the council closed the junction to emergency services and put lives at risk and resisted all calls (from the emergency services) to open it for them. Surely you can't defend that  or are you willingly turning a blind eye to that too? Ha ha, which kind of begs the question then why so many of you get so vexed by One Dulwich? Surely you could compartmentalise their work if the above was true? I suspect it has a lot to do with the accountability that they are forcing and the fact some don't like it.
    • I believe around 57% of the 5,538 people who were part of the self selecting sample making up the original consultation, opposed the LTN. So just over 3,000 people. This was around 3 years ago now. I think there’s something like 40,000+ living across se22 and SE21 🤷‍♂️  The LTN is a minority interest at best. Whilst it’s an obsession for a small number on the transport thread who strongly oppose it, I suspect most locals quietly approve of the improvements made to that junction. …and we still haven’t heard who has supposedly been pressurising the emergency services and how (are we seriously going with the far left / the commies)? Is anyone willing to stand up and support the 'One' claim that people are partially covering their plates and driving through the filters due to inadequate signage? Again, it all sounds a little ridiculous / desperate. Feels like it may be time for them to start coming to terms with the changes.
    • Okay Earl, of those 'consulted' how many voices were in favour of the junction and how many against? Were there more responses in favour or more against? This local junction change is being driven by Southwark Labour Councillors- not as you assert by Central Govt. Also, if consultations are so irrelevant as indicators of meaningful local support in the way you seem to imply, why do organisations like Southwark Cyclists constantly ask their members to respond to all and any consultation on LTN's and CPZ's?  
    • You could apply the same argument to any kind of penalty as an effective deterrent.  Better than doing nothing.
