He helped Agastya strengthen both his subject knowledge and his exam technique, particularly how to approach higher-mark questions. Agastya went on to achieve a Grade 9 in Biology, and we are extremely pleased with the support Jon provided. Highly recommended.

Terence has been working with my daughter for a couple of months now. He is a brilliant teacher of all 3 sciences for her GCSE’s. He’s passionate and clearly loves teaching, he works to her syllabus’, he is flexible, patient (with me too!) and fun. He scaffolds learning and makes sure the knowledge sticks. He is covering exam questions and exam technique with her as she goes. I’m looking forward to seeing how she gets on at school from working with Terence as she already feels more confident. Recurring lessons in place! Thanks Terence.
