Amirhossein S
Amir has been and continues to be fantastic.In a very short period of time (weeks) he has taken my son up a grade/grade and a half in both maths and computer science. We shall most definitely be continuing with Amir up to my son’s A levels and now fully expect him to achieve As in both. My son even said the other day that if he had had Amir a year ago, he could have even studied further maths. The confidence Amir has given my son back is quite something. I am very grateful to Amir, he is a very great tutor.
