For students in the process of applying to university, I understand...

David V
Patient Biology tutor
I am a graduate of Durham University with a Masters Degree in Physics and Astronomy. After graduating into a lockdown I began tutoring online full-time, turning my previous sixth form and University side job into full-time self-employment. In one year I taught over 1000 online lessons and was blessed to receive hundreds of positive reviews from satisfied students. In 2021 I began working full-time as an experimental physicist and gained invaluable experience of using and communicating physics in the 'real world' which complimented my part-time tutoring.Over time I came to realise that working with...

Max H
Max has really helped me understand A level biology, instead of focusing on taking notes, we focus on doing exam questions and how to target the very specific markschemes. Not only has this helped me understand the content, this has also helped me apply my knowledge .

Evie O
I chose Evie as a tutor for A-level Biology, this is due to a lack of support and teaching within college. I have had nearly 20 lessons with Evie and in each lesson, she has put her full effort in whether it was learning new content or completing exam papers, she tailors each session for my needs, such as when learning new content rather than just reading through the content and me making notes she would test my recall of the information with flashcards then applying it to exam questions. If you are looking for a friendly, understanding tutor I would recommend Evie, she has helped me understand A-level biology so much better and has boosted my confidence for the exams.

Sarah has been great helping my daughter build her confidence across all three sciences. Sarah has a friendly and supporting style that helped quickly develop trust and removed nervousness in my daughter engaging with a new tutor.

Leonora V
In the words of my daughter (16 years old) “Leonora was brilliant Mum - she helped me understand straight away .... she is very helpful and has an amazing way of explaining things so that you understand them - I knew the answers but did not know how to explain them - I’ve had two hours with her for my GCSE Chemistry due to start in two weeks and am so grateful for all her help - I feel much more confident in Chemistry now thank you very much - highly recommended”.
