Sarah Simpson is a great tutor. She has offered somebody like me a wide array of tools to study better and eventually perform better. Wish I had this opportunity to learn from Sarah during my School, university and Chartered Accountancy days. The explanation was very, very clear and the concepts were most helpful.

I was expecting more practical strategies, unfortunately, it was more theoretical which is a shame.
