Aishat A
Aishat is a great tutor and we’ve been really pleased with the support she’s given my son. He has weekly GCSE Science (AQA) tutoring with her, and she has taken the time to really understand his learning habits. He’s completely comfortable with her, which has made a big difference to his confidence. Aishat is always punctual, responds promptly to messages, and keeps me well informed about my son’s progress. What’s been especially reassuring is that topics she’s covered with him have already come up in his mock exams, and he was able to answer those questions confidently. We’re very happy with the progress he’s making and would happily recommend her.
