Bahar O
Bahar has been helping my daughter with her A-level Chemistry revision. She takes the time to explain concepts clearly, filling in knowledge gaps and helping my daughter consolidate her learning.
My daughter is becoming more confident in her understanding and her ability to apply her knowledge during revision ,which is helping her improve her grade.
Bahar is also quick to respond to messages, which makes communication smooth and reassuring.
I would recommend Bahar to anyone looking for a supportive, knowledgeable tutor.

Susan L
Had my first lesson with Susan which went very well. She was such a lovely person to work with, making the lesson fun and helping you to feel comfortable as I was feeling fairly nervous at first. She was quickly able to notice areas of which were strengths and weaknesses and knew how to help with those. Can’t wait for when I work with her again. :)

Natalie G
I can’t thank Natalie enough for guiding me from start to finish in achieving my Maths Level 2 Functional Skills qualification with TQUK.
For years I believed passing this exam was impossible. I changed exam boards multiple times — from Open Awards to City & Guilds and finally to TQUK — and despite sitting the exam over and over again, I kept failing. Natalie completely changed that mindset. She made me believe it was possible, and more importantly, she made it happen.
I’m so grateful I found her on the Tutourful app. Natalie is an outstanding tutor. She explains everything with patience and clarity, always making sure I fully understand before moving on. She and I worked through official mock papers from the exam board, carefully identifying my strengths and weaknesses, then focused our sessions on the areas I needed most. That targeted approach is exactly what finally got me over the line and helped me pass.
Natalie is brilliant at what she does — professional, respectful, encouraging, and incredibly thorough. And at just £30 per hour, her sessions are genuinely great value. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough. Whether you need help with Maths or any other subject, you won’t regret booking with Natalie. She is worth every penny and truly the best!

Mahmood G
I had AQA A-Level Chemistry tuition with Mahmood, and he genuinely helped raise my grades by 2–3 grades in a short amount of time. He’s incredibly thorough, explains everything clearly, and always makes sure I fully understand before moving on. I never even need to tell him beforehand what I want to do and he will know all the content in the lesson, and he also recommends really useful revision resources and textbooks. He’s helped me improve both my understanding and exam technique so much, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone struggling with A Level Chemistry.

Sofia R
I think Sofia is a great tutor. We follow a textbook at the base but often explore more topics that come up from my own life. She is very knowledgeable and patient too. I also think being native in both English and Italian is super helpful to understand the translations. Overall I really enjoyed my lessons and would certainly recommend Sofia if you’re looking to learn Italian!
