Find a tutor Michelle F
My daughter got a U and a 4 in her Physics and Chemistry mocks. We then started tutoring with Michelle - she got a 6 and a 5 in her GCSEs. She worked very hard, but Michelle’s tutoring played a big part. Importantly, Michelle found a way to make the topics engaging and explained things very well. She is expensive, but delivers results.

Chris T
I would absolutely recommend Chris as a chemistry tutor and I achieved an A at A level after getting Bs in all of my mocks. Chris's lessons are perfectly tailored to what you want to cover, very engaging and interactive and leave you with a full understanding of the topic at hand. His extra exam support prior to each exam helped me feel much more confident and prepared for my exams and he was very knowledgeable about the structure and topics in each paper. I could not recommend him more!

Alastair B
Alastair has been tutoring my son Michael in Coordinated Double Science for the past two years, and we are extremely pleased with the progress he has made. Before starting lessons with Alastair, Michael was working at around a C grade, but with Alastair’s support, guidance and encouragement, he achieved an excellent **AA in his IGCSE Coordinated Double Science**.
Alastair is knowledgeable, patient and very supportive. He explains difficult topics clearly and helped Michael build both his understanding of the subject and his confidence. The improvement in Michael’s results speaks for itself.
We are very grateful for all of Alastair’s hard work over the past two years and would highly recommend him to any student looking for an excellent Science tutor.
