"Thank you for introducing us to Mr George Marsh. We all enjoyed talking with him. My husband was particularly pleased to have gained an insight into the British university system and helping our son with his personal statement. As for the interview today, our son came out very much relaxed. Mr Marsh put them into a right frame of mind and certainly it helped.”

"I really do appreciate you keeping in touch with me. M's results came out on the 13th and she got admission into the University of Kent to study Law. Ivy Education have been instrumental in the strides my children are making and for this we thank you all immensely."

Mr C Hammersmith
"The consultation went very well. Without Sophie's help, we would not have been able to truly understand the university system and the right options for L. Given our circumstances, Ivy Education was able to tailor make the consultation, providing the service we needed at a discounted price. I would be happy to recommend Ivy Education to anyone.

“We cannot begin to express how transformational Ivy Education has been for our family.
We stepped into the London school system fairly clueless and what Ivy has achieved is nothing short of remarkable.
From tutors to school consultants to assessments, we have at least triple the information we had just weeks ago.
Their expertise and approach are spot on and they’ve built a confidence and relief that we’ll find our way through a complex process.
Tremendous thanks to the entire Ivy team, especially Alastair, Jessica, Charlotte, and Conor.
We cannot recommend Ivy enough!”
