Just spent several minutes looking over it, George. I remember you asking about web-site builders not so long ago; you've certainly got the job done  quickly and it looks quite comprehensive.
Nice one, George.

There are some awful looking web sites about but I am glad to see that yours is not one of them. Nice, clean and easy to navigate is what I like.

The link to tuition reviews opens up the site in a new tab, leaving your web site still open. May I suggest that you give the web sites on the Links page the same treatment?

Hi, thanks. this was the intention so the viewer wasnt taken directly away from the main site.
many thanks for the helpful comment,
Yes just given that sugestion more thought and it makes sense thank you

Very nice, clear, simple to navigate and works well on both computers and smartphones. A good job done by your developer.
I do have one point worth considering, though. When clicking on a Gallery image to enlarge it, the focus stays on the small image whereas I think it would be better if the focus switched to the enlarged image.
Of course, the best thing about the website, is the superb work displayed on it!

A good site easy to navigate and tells the store , like all web sites the proof of the pudding is in the eating so lets hope it brings in the extra work.   I do think one of the major issues with a lot of websites is money and effort is spent on setting them up but not keeping the up dated.

Thank you Duncan .
That was one of the problems with the old site it did not work on Smartphones..
I get what you are saying about the image I will have a word with Reg I am sure he can alter that.
I think you are right then you would not have to scroll up to the larger image

Thank you Michael.
To be honest I am not looking to get extra work at my age less would be better.
I just felt that the old site had got very dated and wanted brightening up.
I tend to keep my Blog which is acessed from my Website up to date.
Unless you build the Website yourself it is not easy to keep it updated because you have to keep asking your Webmaster to do it  whereas my Blog I ca do myself

George I think the whole thing looks nice and fresh.
I had a look through and found one or two things that may need changing. On the profile page 2nd para. do away with the second "as well as" and insert "and is also".
On the tuition page an apostrophe is missing from "student's need"
On the profile page under tuition you are asking a question but there is no question mark.
On the tuition page once again there is an apostrophe missing.
On the line that starts "whether you are..." you have mixed tenses.
Otherwise George I think it is a very good job, the images look good too.
