Founder of Marial Associates | Educational Consultant | Psychologist | Chartered Linguist

I've been working in education for over 25 years — first as a teacher and university lecturer, then as a tutor and consultant for families across the UK and around the world.
In 2015 I founded Marial Associates in London. Since then, we've guided hundreds of families through every stage of the journey — from building early foundations to securing places at top grammar and independent schools.

I'm a Chartered Linguist of the Chartered Institute of Linguists, a qualified psychologist and a member of The Tutors' Association. Outside of work, I served as a Trustee of an international charity supporting vulnerable families and refugees.

This course brings together everything I've learned about 11+ preparation: no fluff, just honest advice, proven strategies and practical tools that genuinely make a difference.
I built Exam&Prep so that every family — wherever they are — can access expert guidance.
