Tom S
Tom is such a good tutor very kind and encouraging. Very supportive when not knowing an answer he gives you prompts to the answer instead of telling you which really encourages you to always be thinking. I’ve been doing tutoring with him since September last year and just got back my year 13 mocks and have gone up 2 grades (from an E to a C). A very kind man and would definitely recommend :)
