Honor Carberry – :
The classes are engaging; instead of reading off slides or listening to a lecture, there are actual conversations, which also help to get to know our fellow classmates and teacher, as well as helping in actually thinking more deeply about the texts! It really helps when you have a teacher who actually likes what they do, and either you’re a really good actor, or you really do! Unlike a lot of online teachers, it’s really lovely that we have one that actually gets it- and understands the whole homeschooling thing.
I think it’s really helped, and I really appreciate the time that’s taken to respond and comment on homework- and then again during the classes.
The online Zoom sessions don’t feel like an hour’s lecture of learning, they feel like a meaningful conversation – and that’s how I feel when Tuesday classes end. In other words, I don’t feel like I’ve just left an hour’s worth of listening to facts and slides; I feel like I’ve just left an online call where I got to listen to and have a conversation with people I like! I gave the 5 star rating because of all the above and because somehow we as students are able to recieve encouragement, DIRECTION, humour and a sense of connection with our peers- I think something that tends to be lacking in other online zoom classes is a loss of connection with the actual people we’re studying next to; in the past sometimes it’s been like- we all come on to class, listen to the teacher, take notes, and leave again. That isn’t the case with this course, and I’m very grateful for that!

We are delighted with Helen’s level of engagement and her interest in the course. She’s clearly enjoying it very much.
Thank you for all your support and encouragement of her.

Best thing? Reading new books and learning about them. Very clear and informative during class discussions.

So far, I’ve really enjoyed reading the novels assigned, all of which are high-quality literature rich in little details that are deeper than they seem, like a little object that is symbolic for a much grander idea. Discussion of the novels has been even better, and I’m very grateful to be in the particular class I’m in. It’s very educational whilst at the same time being extremely entertaining. We have discussions that either can make me laugh aloud with the rest of the class, or can make me think thoughts so deep I’m convinced I’ve signed up for a philosophy class by accident. Altogether, a great experience reading and in class. On class, she is very organised, always presenting a good list of plenty of questions that are deep enough to arouse interest, but rarely too complicated to confuse. If I ever find a question confusing, she invariably breaks it down into easier questions, which is extremely effective. She is funny, always able to crack a joke and keep the student’s attention, and always does her best to get everyone involved, which I appreciate because I personally have a tendency to waffle on when no one else talks. She answers any questions I’ve given her very well, and knows most of the books extremely well, particularly Jane Eyre. By knowing the text, she is able to point out details that I might have missed while reading it the first time. Altogether, she is very experienced and communicative and entertaining whilst at the same time being an efficient teacher.

Laura Tejada – :
The best part about the course is that I get to discuss books that I’ve always wanted to read and be able to converse with my peers. Finding teens my age who have similar interests to me and being guided by an amazing teacher. Rachel is simply amazing; she’s so comprehensive and understanding, yet has great teaching ethics and really sets us up for well-deserved success in a high-level class.

Clare Mulvany – :
Thank you for this very encouraging report. Your suggested areas of improvement are noted and we thank you for those too. I know that Honor will get to work on tightening up those aspects which could do with improvement.
I will say that she has really enjoyed the course and I feel that she has flourished under your tuition. I’m so very glad that I signed her up for this course.
Many thanks again
