Laila F
I honestly couldn’t recommend Laila more as a biology tutor. She is incredibly accommodating and always goes out of her way to find lesson times that work, even if I have a busy and changing schedule.
Her teaching style is amazing ,she doesn’t just rely on generic materials, but creates her own resources and diagrams that make even the most complex topics so much easier to understand. Everything feels really tailored and thoughtful, rather than copy-and-paste teaching.
She’s also so patient and kind, and never hesitates to go over things again until they fully make sense. On top of that, she provides so many helpful resources, and will even make personalised ones if you need extra support on a topic. Honesty even with just the resources she provides is worth 5 stars
Her knowledge of biology is incredible, and thanks to her, I feel so much more prepared and confident going into my exams. I genuinely can’t imagine a better tutor ,I’m so grateful for all the help and support she’s given me.

Alexandra E
Alex has been a great maths tutor for my daughter in preparing for the AQA Level 2 Certificate in Further Maths.
She knows the subject brilliantly, and if there's ever a question that she can't work out during the lesson she goes the extra mile to get back to us with an answer after the lesson. More often than not it's just down to a misprint in a textbook!
She's also very punctual and organised, and sends resources and homework to make the most of the time we have in lessons.
Overall, she's a pleasure to work with, and very highly recommended.

The way she teaches challenges me but it helps me to grow and pursue Physics even more than I did before. She goes through the theory and then gives you questions to test you.
