The kind words of appreciation that parents have shared over the years.
These are original versions. I had first thought of having a concise version here. But then -these words mean a lot to me- parents have taken time to add such beautiful words of appreciation and they are so heartfelt. I would do great injustice to them and myself if I didn’t share them in their original form.

Sumona has been instrumental in our son securing a place in MTS( it was our target school) and 4 other schools he applied for.
He started with Sumona in spring term of year 4 – at that time he really struggled at creative writing. Sumona was very patient with him – firm and encouraging at the right time.
She is very methodical and structured in her approach, and knows exactly what each school is looking for in their prospective students.
She is always available to talk and feedback on the progress.
Though 11 plus is a big focus , her approach equips the child with the necessary skills and tools to excel beyond 11 plus .
We are so pleased to have found Sumona, and I will be back in a few years when my daughter will be prepping for 11 plus.
Can’t thank you enough Sumona!
– Arjiit Bose
Sumona is a lovely English teacher.She created a very positive atmosphere in her class and encouraged my child .She is firm but friendly with children and my daughter looked forward to her weekly class.
Her most endearing quality is definitly how she brings a positive perspective to the whole 11plus process which is very essential for a child going through a demanding year.With Sumonas continued support my dd secured a place in Henrietta Barnet School.
I would highly recommend her and wish her all the best for future.

Sumona helped our daughter transition from India to the UK, building her confidence and English skills. She excelled in 11+ exams, securing offers from Habs and St. Helen’s. We highly recommend Sumona for her dedication and support.
-Jaishekhar
My son started in year 6 with a focus on creative writing and reading comprehension which are very much required for 11+ exams. Within few weeks, he was able to analyse comprehension easily and able to elaborate answers in writing comprehension. Sumona helped him crack both Grammar (QE) and Independent schools (Habs Boy’s) 11+ exams with confidence. I really recommend Sumona as she provides much needed motivation and encouragement.
-Amit Trivedi
Sumona is an impeccable teacher, who has led, coerced and supported my ds with his English studies during his 11+ programme. It has been an intense roller-coaster ride exploring the bounds of proper grammar and vocabulary to produce some amazing writing pieces under her guidance. While on one hand providing a targeted learning framework, Sumona has instilled a passion for English too. Her kind and approachable personality has been influential in bringing the best out of my ds both in his studies and day to day life. Over the course of this journey, Sumona gave very deep and thorough feedback, enabling a profound sense of calm and confidence. We are very grateful to have been able to work with a knowledgeable and experienced teacher like her and would highly recommend her work and her dedication to teaching.
-Mohima
I cannot thank Sumona enough for the fantastic support she has given to both my kids for their 11 plus English preparations. Both the kids have achieved their target schools and owe a lot to the coaching provided by Sumona.
Most importantly my kids thoroughly enjoyed each and every session with her and have grown from strength to strength with their writing, comprehension skills and in general their love for the English language. It’s been such an impactful journey that I continued their sessions even after the 11 plus exams. Her passion for the English language goes beyond the 11 prep syllabus and has positively inspired my kids to carry on with their pursuit to gain greater proficiency in the language independently. I have absolutely no hesitation is recommending Sumona to others for 11 plus English prep and beyond.
Positive Communication, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Sumona is an excellent English teacher. My son did very well in his 11+ exams and secured admission to the well known private schools in the area MTS, HABS. Sumona’s teaching and guidance helped him improve and refine his comprehension and creative writing skills. I would highly recommend her for English tuitions.
Sumona is fantastic tutour. My son has had tuition with her for a year to prepare his 13 plus exam. She analysed my son’s problem and worked very strategically but in a friendly manner. After having her tution, improvement was seen in not only English but also other subjects which involve essay writing!
My son now got a place in MTS. Thank you Sumona.
Sumona is an excellent teacher. She prepared our daughter very well for her 11+ entrance exams leading her to get offers from all the five schools that she applied for.
-Rajat Thakur
Sumona is a fab English teacher I found online while looking for a tutor for my son in year 4. My ds used to hate writing and basically lacked confidence in his ability to write creatively. I am so glad that I found Sumona.
Sumona is genuinely keen in developing love for the language rather than just preparing for the curriculum. An affectionate & warm hearted person who is able to make my son re-do the work until it passes her standards! In each lesson , she gives detailed feedback with alternate techniques for improving writing, comprehension decoding and answering etc. After the class, I am able to call her for a detailed feedback. She patiently listens to concerns of an anxious parent and coaches them (atleast me!) along with my son.
My son has become much more confident, better skilled and enjoys the language. Sumona has been instrumental in removing that fear of failure in my son’s heart and I believe that’s half the battle won!
I would recommend Sumona to anyone looking to develop skills in English language.
-Vibha Sridhar
Me and my husband are so glad that we came across Sumona’s profile online. We were seeking placement for our two daughters in London’s top schools. And with her profile, we couldn’t see anyone better for our kids and with Sumona’s hard work , my daughters got placed in 13+ .
Sumona brought my kids up to a level where they have become so confident with her dedicated sessions even during her surgery , she made a great effort out of her comfort zone.
Sumona took this project in hand with so much passion and ensured the results are flying colours. Thanks a million x x
