Exam Candidate Testimonials

Thousands of students bundle their exams with CloudLearn, here's what they say...

Matilda Hector

I got my results today and it was an A!

I bought the A Level Edexcel English Literature course, I really enjoyed the prose and drama texts from A Streetcar Named Desire, Hamlet, Frankenstein and Never Let me Go. … I got my results today and it was an A!

I’m glad, especially since it was about 5 and a half months in all I spent learning everything. They don’t recommend doing it in that time crunch but I think if you can make it work, go for it. … The lessons all had quite nice designs, with themes, meanings and close text analysis quite useful for mocks and the real exams. I would recommend.

Nazmeen Begum

Very helpful..

Very helpful and always have someone on hand to help with anything. Love the feature where students can message tutors for help and you don't have to wait long for a reply. Overall I really enjoyed my home learning experience. The course was well structured and easy to go through. I wish I had redone my other GCSEs alongside this course. I did the igcse biology course and got a 9! That's my very first A*!! Really pleased with myself and thank you to everyone who were there to help me. 100% would recommend to everyone!

Thanks to cloudlearn I got a high grade!

I began my maths IGCSE's this year with cloudlearn. From my experience of other online courses, I would definitely complete another course with cloudlearn. I loved the fact that all the lessons were clear and had a verity of questions to answer. I personally, want to thank my tutor as they were helpful and quick in replying to any questions I had which helped me gain a higher grade. I got a grade 8 and I would definitely recommend any student who is aiming for higher grades to study with cloudlearn!

Excellent support

We’ve been with CloudLearn for the last two years while my daughter worked through her GCSEs, and Laurie-Alysia has been brilliant throughout. When I ran into technical difficulties she stepped in and booked the exams for me rather than leaving me to struggle with it. She’s now helping us look at A levels and has been just as clear and patient. Thank you for all the help.

Abigail Swallow

Excellent for A-levels!

After having medical issues, I had to contact them in regards to my course and extending it, and they were brilliant. The response was quick and comprehensive (done by a girl called Niamh) and they were very understanding! I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to complete their a-levels.

Great IGCSE Experience.

I am home schooled and was aged 14 when I started studying with Cloudlearn. I received grades 8, 8 and 7, in English, History and Geography, also a good pass in Maths. I would happily recommend Cloudlearn to anyone who wants to study online from a distance. Thanks.

Mohamed Rahoy

Excellence

Cloudlearn is professional in what it does. I have had an excellent online learning experience. It was convenient and support was available throughout my journey. I did Physics iGCSE and got 8. This will now open more doors for me in the future. Cheers!
