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.

Georgina has really helped with my A level physics this year, she's really good at going through each topic/ explaining tough past paper questions and really knows her stuff for the spec. It is clear to see she enjoys her job and physics in general. I looked forward to her lessons and left feeling that I was definitely making progress.

Lila has been an excellent tutor for me over the past several months. They have a wide range of subject knowledge, as they tutored me in A level Maths and Physics, and they use very effective teaching methods to help you really understand the underlying idea of a concept. Overall, Lila is very flexible and adaptive to what subject content you wish to cover and I highly recommend them for A level tutoring.
