About

I have worked in education for the past 25 years as a fully qualified teacher, and for the past eleven years have worked as a private tutor. I really enjoy working as a tutor and I have supported hundreds of students to prepare for their GCSEs and A Levels and to reach their goals and grades. I have also been an examiner for AQA, Edexcel and CIE for the past thirteen years and I find this really helps me to provide that expert knowledge about what students can do to give themselves the best chance to do well in their exams- whether that is a grade 4 or a grade 9 in GCSE.I also work for two private tutor centres to teach and mark NEAs. I have a huge amount of experience with all the exam boards, as well as expert knowledge of many literature texts.

Imported from Jacqueline E.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.

How we verify these

Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:

  • Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
  • Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.

The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

    My daughter really enjoys her lessons with Jacky and her confidence has increased in both Language and Literature as she heads towards her GCSEs this summer. Jacky sets a homework task each week and provides really useful and detailed feedback on this. Jacky has also provided lots of other helpful resources. Overall, we’re really pleased and I recommend Jacky without hesitation.

    Although early days, my daughter is thoroughly enjoying her lessons with Jacky. We can already see a difference in her confidence in both GCSE language and literature. She really looks forward to her lessons! Past papers/notes that Jacky provides after each lesson have also been very helpful in supporting my daughter prepare for her mock exams and regularly keeps us informed on her progress. We have found Jacky very accommodating, and always responds quickly to emails. We would highly recommend her.

    Jacky is an excellent tutor. Jacky is tutoring both my children for their Literature and Language GCSE exams in 2026. My children both find her to be friendly, approachable and encouraging in her teaching, asking questions that develop their thinking, knowledge and confidence. Jacky is organised and thoughtful in her approach, planning her sessions, as we requested, with her to fit with the curriculum my children are following at school, this has really helped to consolidate their learning. Jacky is knowledgeable about the requirements of different exam boards. When giving my children feedback/ marking their work Jacky, sets out the level to which they have met the numerous assessment objectives of the exam board. In addition, Jacky models what they could have done to improve their answer. Jacky is proactive in her communication and always responds very quickly to my emails. I have found her approachable, confident and willing to discuss the best way to improve and test my children’s knowledge and exam skills. Jacky keeps me informed with objective feedback on my children’s progress. Jacky is very knowledgeable in her subject and skilled in tutoring, she has already made a tangible improvement in my children’s performance. I recommend Jacky without hestiation.

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed feedback- I really apprecaite it and look forward to continuing to working together this year:)
