Setareh A
Setareh is an excellent tutor, would highly recommend her. I started using her in year 1 of my Biology A level and she has always explained things very clearly. If I didn’t understand something she would go the extra mile to support me. It was very helpful working through exam questions together and this would highlight areas that I maybe needed a bit more support. She’s supportive and friendly, a great tutor that I would highly recommend.

I was really struggling with mark schemes and language and lost my confidence in biology but max has helped me gain my confidence back and I am beginning to understand biology again couldn’t recommend him more, I also think that him being closer to my age has helped me having someone who also recently went through the same course I’m going through now, fab tutor and a really nice guy

They understand the expectations for students across the UK, including those from schools in Durham, and can tailor lessons to match what your child is learning in class, whether it's at Durham Johnston or another excellent local school.
Is Tutorful only for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills too?
