Bahar O
We met Bahar back before Covid when our daughter was in year 9 and told us she struggles with physics and chemistry. Thanks to Bahar’s clear and adaptable explanations our daughter fell in love with chemistry and ended up choosing it as an A-level subject. Bahar continued tutoring her for the duration of her A-levels and she ended up getting into University College London (UCL), where she studied chemistry with management. After graduating she found a job she loves.
Now Bahar teaches our son who is in secondary school. He loves having lessons with Bahar and has chosen tripple science for his GCSEs. I’ve been recommending Bahar to friends whose children needed help with science and will continue recommending her. For us, she played a big role in our daughter’s future and now in our son's. I am forever grateful to her.

Emilia I
We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Emilia on Tutorful! After my son’s test today, I felt I had to share just how much of a difference Emilia has made as his science tutor.
He came home feeling really confident and said he did very well. What’s even more impressive is that earlier this week his teachers and classmates were genuinely shocked at how much knowledge he had gained.
His teacher even mentioned that if they had seen this level sooner, they would have entered him for the higher paper! After his mock results he now been set to take the higher paper.
This boost in confidence and understanding is a true testament to Emilia’s dedication, teaching style, and ability to engage and inspire. He has grown so much not just in knowledge, but in belief in his own ability.
He’s now even asking to continue with tuitions which shows just how motivated he’s become.
Thank you so much, Emilia, for your hard work and support. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to help their child succeed.
