Tony D
I only wish we had identified the potential benefits of tuition and found Tony earlier. Tutoring my son for A level history in the 12weeks leading up to exams, my son has described Tony as engaging, interesting, clear, kind with a good sense of humour. He has provided structured and well-planned lessons with excellent supporting materials and increased my son's confidence ahead of the exams. My son commented after just a couple of sessions that he was gaining a much stronger idea of what examiners are looking for and how to approach questions. I feel that Tony has set up my son with fantastic information in a short space of time - now it's just down to my son to apply this in the room.
