Recommended: Tutor 7+, 11+

Recommended Posts

Just wanted to post a recommendation for a tutor, Betsy Rowland, https://www.dulwich-tutor.co.uk/, who is based in East Dulwich.


She has been tutoring our 6 year old son in Maths and English on a weekly basis for the past year. In our case, the driver for the tutoring was to help prepare our son for the 7+ school assessments for a few of the local private schools.


We feel that Betsy has done a fantastic job in preparing him (and us) for these assessments and from the outset we saw a marked difference in our son's performance as a result of the tutoring, especially with regards to English writing which was his weaker subject. Betsy tailored her approach to our son's needs, has taken a personal and vested interest in him and has maintained an open and honest dialogue with us throughout the process which I have found to be very valuable.


We have been extremely pleased with the outcome of the tutoring with our son now set to go to his and our preference school.


As well as specifically tutoring for the 7+, Betsy also tutors for 11+ and provides broader tutoring (from pre-school upwards).

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
