Jon has vast knowledge of Physics, friendly, approachable, pays attention to the person he is tutoring and can adapt to changes. He has been tutoring my daughter which has helped her confidence in A level Physics. Jon is a brilliant physics tutor as she was able to pick up my daughter’s weaknesses in a topic which they tackled together to help my daughter have a crystal understanding of the topic which increased her confidence in the topic. Jon is good at his job and a Physics teacher you can bet on. I highly recommend 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.
