Heidi T
Heidi has been brilliant for my son Max. She taught him combined science and really improved his knowledge. She was also very patient and understanding when he struggled with either the subject or being punctual.
He will definitely get at least 2-3 or levels above what he would have got had he not been supported by Heidi. I cannot recommend Heidi enough. We used for a period of at least 2 months.

Alastair B
Alastair has been tutoring my son Michael in Coordinated Double Science for the past two years, and we are extremely pleased with the progress he has made. Before starting lessons with Alastair, Michael was working at around a C grade, but with Alastair’s support, guidance and encouragement, he achieved an excellent **AA in his IGCSE Coordinated Double Science**.
Alastair is knowledgeable, patient and very supportive. He explains difficult topics clearly and helped Michael build both his understanding of the subject and his confidence. The improvement in Michael’s results speaks for itself.
We are very grateful for all of Alastair’s hard work over the past two years and would highly recommend him to any student looking for an excellent Science tutor.

Jack helped my son for about 4 months prior to his final A Level Economics exams, and made such a huge difference to him. My son went from D/E grades to achieving an A. Jack just had a way of explaining things, and was so patient. My son worked really hard for his A but I know that Jack gave him the confidence and the support he needed. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a tutor for anyone who needs extra support.
