Jordan H
According to my son, Jordan is one of the best teachers he has had. In 5 or so months, my son has progressed from a predicted 5 to achieving a grade 7 in his mock Computing GCSE. More importantly he has installed in him an innate confidence and interest in a subject my son disliked. Jordan has an ability to explain difficult concepts simply and concisely. He has the knowledge and resources to teach, test and embed knowledge when asked about a topic at short notice I.e during tuition. He ensures he is familiar with his students capabilities and uses this to quickly ascertain the root cause of any areas of confusion. Thank you

Luigi was extremely helpful in helping me prepare for my Italian A-level. He was very good at helping me identify my mistakes and helping me correct them. Not only did he help me gain confidence in my speaking and language skills but he also allowed me to explore a lot about the Italian culture which is extremely important. I 100% recommend his lessons!
