We were so pleased to have found Max A - who has helped my son Toby this year. He really knew how to engage students with difficult subject information and present it more easily. He had an easy, clear style which was important - and was clearly on the students level. A great experience - Thank you Max for all your help.

Jon P
Jon has been an absolutely fantastic tutor. Every lesson we’d go through past paper questions but his ability to spot weaknesses quickly and do thorough explanations of the harder topics is brilliant.
Physics is not an easy subject at A level but Jon makes the lessons more accessible. He genuinely takes an interest in you and is a positive influence for the future. This is a tutor you can truly rely on for anything and it’s been a pleasure having him.

Shahreen Z
Shahreen is a very efficient tutor who thoughtfully structures the lessons in a way that teaches all the needed content and then immediately tests whether the information has been retained, strengthening understanding and pinpointing any gaps in the knowledge. She is extremely patient and answers any questions willingly and with clarity and helps in revision by doing exam questions, which actively improves exam technique and understanding. I would highly reccommend

Greg S
The lessons were really helpful I’m so grateful for the amount that I was able to improve, as I had Greg for physics and also chemistry at GCSE. I felt very engaged during the sessions and comfortable to say if I didn’t understand anything, which we could then work through. He also checked to make sure we were covering the content that I wanted which was very useful to target my weakest areas. Lastly I felt that he genuinely cared about my confidence in the subjects and in making sure I knew I was prepared and supported for my exams.
