What the children say about us and our courses:-

‘Since starting the course I feel more confident in all areas. I have
benefited a lot and my tests results have really improved.’ S... (Year 7)

‘The course I attended was specifically aimed at CE exam technique and preparation.
I felt much more confident at the end of the week and much better prepared for my imminent exams. The venue
was good and having 8 in the class was less intimidating than at school. I felt confident to speak up and we
were all there for the same purpose, to learn. The marking of our work was constructive and informative. I really
enjoyed the course, it was legend.’ R... (Year 8)

‘I felt much more confident sitting the Guildford High 11+ exam having just completed the exam preparation course. Not only did I really enjoy it but I really felt able to go into my exam with confidence. I feel my story writing and comprehension have really improved. I was delighted to be offered a place at Guildford High!’ S... (Year 6)

‘The hour lesson passed so quickly and I always look forward to going.’ K… (Year 8)

‘You got me confidence and stuck by me all the way. Made questions much easier to read and answer.
Really helpful.’ T… (Year 7)

‘I like going to Lex because it changed my attitude from hatred to enjoyment. Alex G -age 11- going for
one year.’ A… (Year 7)

‘I never knew that I could learn as much in just ten hours.’ A… (Year 8)

‘I don't always look forward to going to class at 5pm on Tuesdays but I do always enjoy it when I get there. The
tutors are friendly and really encouraging and I know that my English is so much better now than when I started.
This has helped me get better grades at school in English but also in other subjects such as History and Geography
where you need to write well.’ C… (Year 7)

What the parents say about us and our courses:-

‘We would whole-heartedly and thoroughly recommend the courses run by Amanda Alexander and Rachel Gee. They gave our children the confidence they needed for their exams. Worth every penny!’ Mr & Mrs C.

‘Lex Education is run by people who are passionate about the subject they teach and the people to whom they teach it.
They have a personal interest in the children and want to see them achieve their full potential. The classes are small
and each child receives individual attention. The children are required to participate actively in a relaxed and
pressure free environment with positive reinforcement all the time.’ Mrs A

‘Can highly recommend Lex Education. Excellent teaching in calm, friendly environment. Excellent rapport between pupil & teacher.’ Mrs M.

‘From early on F… has never enjoyed English and it has always been a battle for her. We have noticed a huge
improvement in her confidence and she has gone from hating English to ‘really quite enjoying it’. Lex Education
has taught her strategies to help her understand the task at hand and in doing so, achieving the required result.
She has learnt to organise her thoughts and plan her writing in a way she hasn’t been able to do before. F… loves the fun atmosphere in which the lessons are held and looks forward to her Wednesday class.’ Mrs A

‘English homework used to be a chore for my son each weekend. Since he has been going to Lex he now enjoys
English and buckles down to the task without me having to nag him!’ Mrs G

'A… has struggled with English for many years considering his natural intelligence is quite high. It was very frustrating for us parents and him! We are so glad to have found this programme and wish we had done it much sooner! Thank you!’ Mrs A

‘F… lacked in confidence until he started with Lex. They made him believe in himself.
Lex Education are a team who are familiar with the curriculum and know what is to be expected of each child.
The group sessions are intimate and allow the children to learn from each other as well as the Lex Education team.’ Mrs L

‘T... has gained confidence in his abilities during the course – he is now able to be less inhibited in his descriptive
writing. He has always been happy and positive to go to the Lex Education evenings –for a sport obsessed boy,
this is testimony in itself! Rachel and Amanda are always very positive and encouraging to the kids but expect
an appropriate level of commitment and are ambitious for their pupils.’ Mrs Mc

‘Lex Education has been invaluable in strengthening our son’s ability, confidence and general enjoyment of English.
Class size is small and with two tutors each child can receive individual attention whilst enjoying the atmosphere a
group session provides. To date, our son has participated in a weekly tutoring session but will now have the
opportunity to attend holiday courses dedicated to his level of ability and choice of senior school.’ Mrs C

‘Amanda and Rachel gave A… the tools to approach his English tasks with confidence.
They have loads of experience in getting the best out of children in preparation for Common Entrance and beyond.’ Mrs F

‘Lex Education is very good value for money. The classes are small and the individual attention for the pupils is
high allowing each child’s individual strengths and weaknesses to be worked on. The content of each lesson is well
planned and structured and the feedback is detailed.’ Mrs A

‘I don’t think you can put a price on your child’s education. Every penny spent is a good investment with hopefully
a good return for their future. F… enjoys his sessions with Lex Education no matter how tired he is. To sum up: If
you enjoy it you will learn. F… does really enjoy Lex Education.’ Mrs L

‘Highly recommended by previous clients. At last an after school class that he enjoys attending.
The group atmosphere helps the children to relax and enjoy the sessions.
M…’s confidence when it comes to his English and exams is improving and he now does not panic when given his
homework!’ Mrs D

‘A…always goes to the class looking forward to it and leaves feeling he has learnt a lot and enjoyed
the discussions.’ Mrs A

‘Lex Education has helped A… gain self confidence. She has come to enjoy English as a subject.
Her grades have improved and she is now reading with great enthusiasm!' Mr and Mrs F

‘We feel that you run an enjoyable course and work very closely with each student providing both motivation and good structure.’ Mrs J

‘Lex boosted her confidence so that she recognized that she could achieve and be creative. Working in small
groups with a high staff to pupil ratio meant that the children received lots of guidance and support and could
bounce ideas off each other.’ Mrs W

A… feels that he is more confident to start off stories. His structure for answering comprehension questions is much
stronger now. We feel that both instructors have good background and abilities as well as great attitudes.’ Mrs A

What the parents say about exam preparation:-

‘The exam preparation is excellent. Rachel and Amanda are experienced in what is required in exams and are
able to pass this information on to the children in a structured way. F... has gone into exam situations with a far more positive attitude knowing that she is fully prepared for what is required of her.’ Mrs A

‘Went through all aspects of what to expect in CE exam. Boosted confidence and given greater understanding
of exam technique.’ Mrs M

‘Very useful and positive boost before the senior school pre-test exams. T.. felt far more confident in his abilities at the end of the course.’ Mrs Mc

‘The Common Entrance preparation course has been invaluable. It has brought together years of disjointed study
into one rounded approach to the examination papers.’ Mrs B

‘Specific techniques aimed at improving exam strategy.’ Mrs D

'The course was invaluable in building B…’s confidence prior to her exams in January. Once again, thank you for
contributing to our daughter’s exam successes.’ Mrs W

'This course definitely helped A.. secure a place at his next school.’ Mrs A

What the parents say about our feedback and communication:-

‘This is the best bit – constructive and positive feedback with T.. present. This gave us a clear picture of what are T…’s strengths and weaknesses. We feel that this personal service makes for a complete learning experience.’ Mrs Mc

‘The liaison with parents is carefully thought out. Rachel and Amanda are very approachable and there are numerous opportunities to discuss your child’s progress throughout the course. At the end of the course there is a very detailed and informative report of your child’s progress, strengths and weakness. The meeting with the parents and the child at the
end of the course is both constructive and informative again with so much positive reinforcement.’ Mrs A

‘Meeting with the teachers prior to the course meant that we were fully informed about the content and we could communicate any of our concerns about our daughter’s weaknesses in English. The feedback afterwards meant that we all
felt reassured that B… would perform to the best of her ability in her exams. It also enabled us to focus in the last few
weeks on any weaknesses she had.’ Mrs W

‘Excellent feedback & nothing was a problem. Always looking for other ways to help pupil.’ Mrs Mc

‘The daily interaction with teachers is friendly and welcoming. The feedback session is amazing with both teachers
discussing all the term’s progress with parents and student.’ Mrs A

‘Always regular & detailed feedback allowing us to know how F… is progressing.’ Mrs L

‘Amanda and Rachel are personable individuals. Their rapport with both
students and parents is easy yet businesslike. Feedback on progress is
regular, focused and constructive.’ Mr and Mrs F
