My review:
I am a British undergraduate student at Cardiff university studying religion and Archaeology in my 3rd year. Writing essays can be stressful and tiring especially when you have a few deadlines lined up, however Barbara has been Amazing! II say this with such happiness she has helped me sooooo much in my 3rd year and I truly have seen a difference in my essay writing skills. She is also very organised and patient, there have been times were I have sent my work a day before the deadline!
