Alicen is a fantastic teacher. We worked together at a challenging high school and she was able to make great relationships with pupils and achieve some fantastic results. Alicen is very knowledgeable about her subject and is excellent at making learning accessible for all.
Having worked with Alicen for many years, I know she is a very enthusiastic and fun teacher who explains things in ways pupils can understand. She is patient and caring. She really understands the requirements for exam grading as she has been an examiner and teacher for years. She's worked with pupils in every grade range and will make sure learning is personalised. I 100% recommend her!
