ni4kids Family Awards Tutor of the Year 2012 winners video
“We are thrilled that Sarah got 119 in her transfer tests and want
to thank you for all the work you put in with Sarah in preparing her for
the tests. You made what had been a tense time for her so calm and
relaxed and I know that she got so much from her Saturday morning
classes. Having another child currently receiving tuition we can see the
results from your patience and expertise and again a big thank you for
this. I would have no hesitation recommending Kip McGrath, Lisburn for
anyone seeking tuition.” Karen Allen (Feb 2012)
“Just a line to let you know that Mollie got an A in the GL
assessment. She is absolutely delighted as are we. All being well she
will be going to Dominican College, Fortwilliam. Mary and I would like
to thank you once again for all the work you put in with Mollie. We
appreciated the calm and relaxed manner in which you worked with her. I
think it is a testament to you that never once did she baulk at getting
up so early on a Saturday morning to go to your classes. We will have
no hesitation in recommending you to anybody else seeking tuition.” Jim
McAlister (Jan 2012)
“Just a quick note to let you know that Adam got 108 in his transfer
test. I would like to take this opportunity in thanking you for your
professionalism, dedication and skill in helping Adam attain this mark.
Adam is my second child that you have helped, and I will have no
hesitation in sending my third when the time comes.” Nigel Irwin (Jan 2012)
“Delighted with Jane’s results today – A in GL and Q1 in AQE. Many
thanks to Martin for your help last summer. We are so pleased :-)” Clare
McMahon (Jan 2012)
"I am a mum of a
child with Dyslexia who has been held back by not having the proper
help from the education system until late in the day. His confidence was
very low. He hated work of any kind. From day one Clare and Martin
have been excellent professional and encouraging. For my son to come out
on day one wanting to go back every day which continued throughout his
time here and still does, to enjoying work set and the rewards. I have
seen the benefits of bringing him here from the confidence boost
onwards. I found both Clare and Martin easy to talk to and professional
throughout. I highly recommend them to any parent.” Heather McCall (Sept 2011)
“Martin, I think you helped me initially to find the places where I
needed to polish up on the curriculum and then helped me develop those
areas to the right level for the exams. It was also very helpful that I
could get a different perspective on explanations of subjects I wasn’t
clear on, so that I could understand them better. Overall, I think Kip
McGrath helped me to become an A student with the combination of good
teaching and the focused environment on a Friday to get it all on board.
I’ll be back in the Summer for a brush-up before senior school starts
and my sister will definitely be going to see you next year as well to
help her prepare for the transfer tests.” Conor McMullan (Feb 2012)
"Jordan
managed to get 67% in his summer exam - a massive 25% improvement! So
your magic worked. Thank you for your patience and persistence. Jordan
has gained a lot more confidence and came second in his class." (July 2010)
"I
got into Hunterhouse Grammar School, which was my first choice. I am
delighted. Thank you very much for all your help with the AQE. I'm
very excited about my new school. I couldn't have done it without
you." Amy (Feb 2011)
"Just to say thank you for your input in helping
Rachel achieve a 'C' in her GCSE Maths (Foundation). We were delighted
and Rachel has got into college to study for A-Levels." Norma (Aug 2010)
"Thank you for all the help with my work. I'm so pleased it paid off as I am now going to Hunterhouse College." Taylor (Feb 2010)
"Just
to say thanks again Martin...for all your help preparing for the entrance
test, Ciara always enjoyed going to Kip,and all her hard work paid off
with a well deserved A!" Trisha (Feb 2009)
"I just wanted to thank you for all you did for
my son, Ciarán. He had a great result in both transfer tests, and
that was due in large part to the work you did with him at Kip McGrath
Lisburn. Ciarán benefited in many ways. First of all, The tutoring
centre gave him a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of home to
really concentrate on his work. Secondly, we we able to target the
skills that Ciarán needed work each week on and focus on them. Thirdly,
Ciarán had had more than half his schooling in the US, and needed
explanation to help understand the cultural differences in the transfer
test. Finally, Ciarán's grew in confidence each week, and the work he
did at Kip McGrath was reflected in the scores he received in his
practice tests he took in school each week. In the end, Ciarán got an "A" in the GL test, and 116 in the
AQE test, both scores that gave him the freedom to choose the school he
wanted. You've helped make one little boy very happy - Thanks again!" Patrick (Jan 2011)
"Just
a wee note to say thank you so much for all your help and I got an A in
my Maths with my N4 replacing my N3. I am now doing Maths for A-Level
along with English Literature, History and Politics, so lots of work
ahead!" Hannah (Aug 2011)
