Testimonials
"As the founder and lead of a local behaviour intervention centre/alternative education provision, I have had the privilege of observing Phil working closely with challenging students across all academic key stages.
In his role as a mentor, Phil has demonstrated patience, understanding, and calmness in their interactions with students who have struggled in mainstream education. These students often face significant barriers to learning, including behavioural challenges and emotional difficulties, but Phil approaches every situation with a level-headed, supportive demeaner. Phil remains calm, even in high-pressure situations, allowing for a great effect on the students he works with." (Founder & Director, Local Alternative Education Provider)
"I booked a course with Phil for my daughter who had very low self esteem. Phil was amazing, and she finished the course with a whole lot more confidence and a new found liking for herself. I would recommend Phil to anyone with a teenager who is struggling." (Parent)
"My son was really stressed about his 11+ and we came across Phil. From the very first conversation we felt that it was a great match for us, and we are so glad that we gave it a try. Phil helped our son so much by giving him breathing exercises that helped him massively." (Parent)
"Phil has worked wonders with my 15 year old son who struggled with social anxiety. He came away each week with a new found confidence and techniques to help him when he felt uncomfortable in new situations." (Parent)
“Since starting my sessions with Phil at Ray of Light Mentoring, I have seen an improvement in my confidence and life direction. Phil has helped me to believe in myself and to like myself which is something I never thought I'd do" (Student, 17)
"Phil has totally changed my outlook on so many things. He has helped me become a much more positive person” (Student, 16)
