Very helpful in my last year of A-Level Maths, explained things in a more practical way than the standard "by the textbook" ways allowing me to understand concepts a lot better!

Jess B
We were very happy to have Jess B tutoring our son for his A-Level geography exams. Jess was flexible regarding tutorial dates and times, was always well prepared, made them interesting and interactive, and regularly set homework. I feel that our son's exams readiness benefited from his sessions with Jess which increased his knowledge and confidence in the run up to the exams themselves. Jess, thank you for all you have done to assist him. From JF.

Sarah T
Sarah has been absolutely fantastic with Sophie, my daughter, who is currently in year 10. Sophie had very low confidence with her Chemistry and was struggling to find a way forward with revision and methods for retaining the information. After her first lesson with Sarah there was an almost instant transformation in Soph’s attitude to Chemistry. She has grown to enjoy the subject rather than dreading it and gets so much from the time that Sarah spends with her. Sarah is very communicative and spends time keeping me informed of progress which is so appreciated. We’ve had many tutors over the years through Tutorful (as I have older twins who studied the sciences) and Sarah is proving to be a truly outstanding tutor. Thank you Sarah!

Connell B
Since starting tuition with Connell my daughter has gone from failing to a grade A in just a few months. Using his science knowledge alongside his maths knowledge it’s made her understand topics in a way sixth form wasn’t.
He is extremely patient with her given she can be very shy and reserved. He has also been flexible with the slots when we had a family holiday or he had commitments.
Highly recommend
