JRD Languages Tuition

KR - September 2024

I cannot recommend Jenna highly enough. She skilfully tailors the lessons to work on a student's areas of weakness and areas where they are most likely to make gains and pick up key skills. My son enjoyed the lessons despite not being an enthusiastic language learner and I believe he would not have achieved the grade he did without Jenna's help. Communications are also excellent; Jenna is very approachable and responsive.


TK - September 2024

I was apprehensive about having a French tutor at the beginning of year 11 because I thought I could try and improve my grade on my own but I honestly don’t think I would have passed GCSE French without Jenna’s incredible patience and tuition. When I started my French tutorials with Jenna I was on a grade 3 foundation. My weekly online lessons with Jenna helped me gain confidence and a much better understanding right from the start. Jenna provided useful resources to speed up learning and help with revision. She set weekly homework and achievable targets for each of the 4 areas of French and we worked on mock exams based on my areas of development. With Jenna’s help I was so pleased to achieve a GCSE grade 6 at the higher level.


RJ - September 2024

Jenna’s Spanish tuition has helped both children to grow in confidence with their Spanish. The support throughout the GCSE exam period was an unbelievable help, especially in the speaking part of the exam. One of the children gained a grade 7 in GCSE.

We have carried on the Spanish tuition into sixth form. I would highly recommend Jenna, she so encouraging and makes learning Spanish fun.


SS - August 2024

I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks to Jenna for her exceptional guidance and instruction. After my daughter received a low mark on her mock exam, we were understandably concerned and eager to help her improve her performance in her GCSE. Jenna worked closely with our daughter, ensuring she grasped how to approach and answer specific questions. Throughout the process, Jenna was patient and kind, which made a significant difference. Our daughter was even disappointed when the lessons ended, a testament to the positive experience she had. Her mark went from a 4 to an 8. Thank you Jenna. 

 

AE - August 2024

I had lessons with Jenna from Year 8 through to Year 11. She is an amazing tutor who has a wide range of resources. Her lessons are fun, helpful, enjoyable and productive. Her knowledge on exam technique and familiarity with the specification/mark scheme were hugely helpful for achieving a 9 in GCSE French.  


JC - August 2024

My daughter Georgie was passionate about taking a GCSE in Spanish however I had reservations because of her Dyslexia. Georgie didn’t have a particularly good Spanish teacher at school with little support and help! Georgie desperately needed some professional help and thank the lord I picked up Jenna Doidge, a professional language tutor online.  Jenna has been amazing, her professionalism support and communication has been fabulous and her approach to Georgie’s needs completely seamless. Yesterday Georgie opened her exam results and was so excited to have passed her Spanish GCSE she achieved 59/60 for her Spanish speaking paper.  Georgie’s GCSE pass is completely down to Jenna’s tutoring strategic approach enabling Georgie to go from a low to a high GCSE grade. Thank you Jenna.


YL - August 2024

Jenna has been teaching my son French and Spanish since 2021. Jenna is an excellent teacher. She is reliable and always prepares the lessons adapting to what he was doing at school or his interests. She communicates well with me too around his progress. He is receiving really good grades. I was nervous about doing online lessons but it worked really well. I would highly highly recommend her. 


SA - August 2023

Jenna provided exceptional assistance to my son in preparing for his Spanish GCSE exam. Jenna's dedication, thoroughness, and diligence were instrumental in my son achieving the grade he had hoped for.

Throughout the study period, Jenna consistently demonstrated her commitment to ensuring my son's success. Her proactive approach of preparing ahead of lessons allowed for productive and focused study sessions. Jenna's attention to detail and deep understanding of the subject matter ensured that my son was prepared for the exam.

Her patience, encouragement, and clear explanations made the learning process enjoyable and rewarding for my son.

I am grateful for Jenna's dedication to her work and her ability to tailor her teaching methods to suit my son's learning style. It is without hesitation that I recommend Jenna as an exceptional tutor for anyone seeking assistance in Spanish.



ZT - August 2023

I could not recommend Jenna highly enough; she enabled me to achieve a Grade 8 in my French GCSE and helped me throughout year 11, consolidating my skills and providing plenty of practice and opportunities for personalised feedback, which was especially critical for the speaking exams where the tailored help that schools often lack enabled greater progress, whilst designing each lesson in a way that made them both educational and engaging. 



AB - August 2023

Jenna has given French tutoring to two of my kids. My daughter who has just finished her GCSEs says Jenna is brilliant. She is very professional, and provides really clear tuition which has been a huge help to support the kids in their GCSE French. 


KB - August 2023

Jenna is highly experienced, focused, friendly and organised. She was able to quickly identify areas of weakness following a disappointing mock GCSE result. My daughter really enjoyed her tutorials and managed to exceed her predicted grade following only an handful of sessions (as sadly I found her too late!) achieving a 7. Jenna was very helpful and also provided/suggested useful resources for revision. Would highly recommend! 


AE - August 2023

Jenna is a superb tutor. She is very organised, experienced and very competent with an excellent teaching style. My child has been having French lessons with her for two years now and we're planning to continue until the end of GCSE. We're happy we went with her!


NC - August 2023

Jenna has been tutoring my son (year 7) for over 6 months now. His confidence in French was low stemming from low grades at school. Jenna has worked with him on all aspects to transform this and he is really enjoying the lessons. His spoken pronunciation has really improved as well as his confidence, so much so he is trying out a few phrases while on summer holidays! Her communication with me has been very open and direct and she is always available to discuss my sons progress. I would highly recommend Jenna. 


EM - August 2023

Jenna has been tutoring my son for over a year now and he looks forward to his weekly Spanish lesson. Jenna is extremely organised and highly
motivated. Her lessons are stimulating and exciting. My son has made fantastic progress with her and has achieved excellent marks in his school exams - all thanks to Jenna’s knowledge, experience and her ability to instil confidence. If you are looking for an amazing language tutor look no further. I cannot recommend Jenna enough. 


NQ - June 2022

Jenna has been an excellent Spanish Tutor! She was always well prepared for lessons and made them enjoyable. She has improved my daughter's GCSE grade considerably. We would highly recommend Jenna.


BA - May 2021

Fantastic teacher. Very organised and very well-informed about how to prepare a student. My daughter progressed so much with Jenna. I would recommend to anyone.


NS - January 2021

Jenna has been teaching our two daughters for the past 3 years. Our elder daughter took French as an additional subject outside of school and prepared for the GCSE exam under Jenna's guidance. With Jenna's help, she managed to achieve a grade 9. Jenna is now teaching our younger daughter to prepare for her GCSE French. Jenna is a brilliant teacher and is always very helpful, reliable and flexible. She is very thorough with her lessons and teaches with passion, constantly encouraging her students. We would highly recommend her!
