Jennifer A
Caring and experienced Piano teacher
I have been teaching piano for 30 years now. I actually started my business at the age of 12. I LOVE teaching! It’s what I’ve always wanted to do and that hasn’t changed over the years. I have, as you can imagine, taught many people and everybody is different. I truly believe that you have to teach people individually and not in one blanket method, to get the best out of them. So I like to know my students and put them at ease, as it helps me to plan effectively and teach them in a way that makes sense to them. I teach exam boards such as ABRSM and MTB if you feel that exams motivate you in yo...

Sotia N
Miss Sotia is able to tailor the lessons to the students needs, and ensures that the student understands the concept before moving on. She is able to teach 1 whole topic and go through exam style questions in a 1 hour lesson, this is one of the main things that made me have her as my Alevel chemistry AQA tutor, although she is able to teach other subjects and exam boards. She also leaves constructive homework for the student, which further helps them improve in that topic. Overall, her unique teaching style has helped me greatly with this subject.

Hannah D
We are very grateful to Hannah for all her help and support. My son had missed a couple of months of school, so he needed extra help with Geography, and Hannah made a huge difference. She helped him catch up on the material and prepare for his mock exams with confidence.
His level improved significantly, and even his school teacher was very pleased with his progress. Hannah is an experienced and knowledgeable tutor who explains the subject clearly and effectively. She is also very friendly and pleasant to communicate with, which made the lessons enjoyable for my son.
My son truly enjoyed studying with her, and we highly recommend Hannah as a tutor!

James Thomas W
James went over the lesson topic in a good amount of detail - you could tell he did a good amount of preparation before the lesson. He also tailored the lesson to what I asked to focus it on by linking it back to the clinically-relevant aspects which helped to accomodate my understanding. He was also very patient and asked throughout the lesson if I was okay with how it was going which I appreciated.

She gave thoughtful, detailed feedback that really improved the clarity, structure, and overall quality of my writing, and was also very friendly and easy to talk to, which made the whole process feel comfortable and straightforward.

Liam W
Having really struggled with the bridge between GCSEs and A level maths, Liam has been extremely patient and considerate with me, somehow managing to explain confusing concepts in a way that helps me understand and remember it. He adapts each class to whatever topic the student would like to focus on and is always prepared, even when I cover 3 completely different topics during a single session.
