Phil T
Phil did a terrific job with my daughter. Took her from zero chemistry knowledge and no confidence that she could ever learn it, to a solid B in her Scottish Higher within just a few months. Phil has a methodical approach and clearly sees his students as individual learners and is very keen to understand each one's strengths and weaknesses. We were very pleased indeed with her progress and success under Phil.
