A lovely teacher. She made the lessons interesting and easy to understand.

My daughter needed extra tuition to pass her English GCSE that she hadn't passed at school. Mes was fantastic going over the areas that my daughter needed to revisit. She inspired and pushed her to her full potential and guess what - she passed with marks to spare. I can't thank Mes enough.

Mes tutored my son for both his 11+ exams and for the local Boarding school which required him to sit an Academic test. In total she taught him for just under a year on a weekly basis with additional intensive lessons as and when needed. Mes was extremely professional and friendly and my son enjoyed his lessons with her. I would definitely recommend Mesbah for anyone who wants to provide their child with a well structured, fun and intuitive learning experience. She teaches your child and gives you straight talking feedback on their strengths and weaknesses, then plans an excellent strategy to get the best results. Oh and yes he passed his 11+ for both Grammar and Boarding school!

Mesbah gave my daughter a few top up English sessions, prior to her GCSE’s. She was friendly, caring & very informative. My daughter enjoyed her sessions and found Mes to be a great help. Would definitely recommend her.

Mesbah is my tutor she helped me gain my confidence before 11+ we are still going and trying our best to pass she encourages me to work hard and not be lazy she gives me games and website links that are fun and educational. Also, she provides me with stuff that I will need in order for me to focus and to help me.I really recommend that Black Country Tutoring will help you pass any exam whether its GCSEs 11+ Sats anything really you will surely improve your confidence and knowledge.It is affordable and really helpful.

As a student of the university of Birmingham, I am highly conscious about the level of academic work I submit and as a result of this , I use Mesbah's academic services to critic my work before submission. She is able to provide guidance on how to best tackle the essay title in question along with what appropriate sources to use in your discourse; and following this Mesbah is able to proofread your essays with some last minute adjustments.

Mesbah helped my daughter gain confidence and improve skill in her weakest areas before 11+ Thanks Mesbah for your care and commitment.

Mes tutored our 15-year-old son for 3 months on the run up to his English GCSE's, we are awaiting results, but feel sure that having Mes around twice weekly has increased his chances of getting a higher grade. We noticed his ability to talk about what he needed to do become more positive and his confidence grow. We found Mes to be very caring, passionate and able to motivate in a way that we couldn’t. We will be calling on Mes when my daughter gets into year 10 to give her a boost. Thank you Mes, we’ll be in touch x

What a fantastic tutor! Since I started my English has improved significantly. I got the work a lot easier, reading poems also became so much easier. I struggle with one to one as I feel I have to get things right first time, here I felt comfortable and didn't feel embarrassed when I got something wrong as Miss helped me until I got it right. I can't thank her enough.

Mesbah has recently been tutoring our son Dylan in preparation for his English exams in year 11. Dylan had always struggled with revision and study prep work until meeting Mesbah. She introduced positive methods of study, provided good communications whilst building a friendly but professional approach with our son. We can’t recommend her enough for any additional study needs that you may require. Thanks again Mesbah.

English was my sons weakest subject but due to Mesbahs passion and patience hopefully he will get a B grade, Mesbah goes above her tutoring hours time,sends many useful links, marks exam papers and sets homework. But most of all my son is comfortable in Mesbahs company and happy to ask her questions which in turn has made him more confident in his English.

Mesbah has been tutoring my daughter who needs to re-sit her English exam. She has identified my daughter's weaknesses giving her strategies to improve which has made her more positive. She enjoys the friendly style of tutoring and always looks forward to her lesson, I am therefore confident with Mesbah's help it will make all the difference.
