Dear Kate,
Since John came to you in August for tutoring he has improved considerably in his Maths and English. There has been a definite improvement in his English which his form teacher has remarked upon. He is more confident in his writing and has actually started to enjoy writing short stories and poems. John even writes for fun now.
Thank you for getting him to this point,
Yours faithfully,
Anna

I just wanted to write and thank you for helping Jack with his English, spelling and writing. We have seen a big improvement in all these areas and his school are very pleased with his progress.
As you know he is very keen on his music and quite reluctantly we have allowed him to stop coming to you to attend music classes.
Thanks once again.
