Connell B
Since starting tuition with Connell my daughter has gone from failing to a grade A in just a few months. Using his science knowledge alongside his maths knowledge it’s made her understand topics in a way sixth form wasn’t.
He is extremely patient with her given she can be very shy and reserved. He has also been flexible with the slots when we had a family holiday or he had commitments.
Highly recommend

Kate A
Kate is as an excellent math tutor. My daughter has been having lessons with her for a few years now. There was a steady and noticeable improvement in my daughter’s understanding of the subject within a few months. The last couple of years she has been achieving between 90% to 100% on her tests. Kate has managed to not only help her develop her understanding but also her enjoyment of the subject. My daughter really looks forward to each lesson with Kate. Kate follows my daughter’s school curriculum, assesses her knowledge, and fills any gaps in her understanding. If my daughter is finding a topic easy Kate pushes her to challenge herself. We have come a long way in both my daughter’s proficiency and confidence in Maths, and that is all down to Kate. From her reliability, the way she teaches to her ability to build a rapport with her student. Maths is one subject that we haven’t had to worry about because of Kate’s input.

Helena P
We are having a wonderful tutoring experience with Helena. My daughter is 10 years old in year 5 and she has progressed in her Maths at school since working with Helena during her weekly sessions.
Helena creates fun and engaging content which my daughter enjoys, and is really friendly and encouraging throughout the lesson.
In addition to the tutoring sessions, I find it very easy to arrange lessons as Helena is very organised and attentive to the platform which makes the whole process seamless and very manageable.
I would highly recommend Helena for tutoring.

Eve B
Eve has taught both of my daughters, from KS2 through to most recently my eldest’s GCSE Maths, and she has been outstanding throughout. She goes above and beyond—answering questions outside of lessons, sharing extra materials, and providing targeted revision resources. Eve is patient and has a lovely, encouraging approach to teaching. Both girls have grown significantly in confidence, and their test results and teacher feedback show the impact of Eve’s support. We strongly recommend Eve—she is a brilliant tutor!
