Hi, my name is Miss Thomas and I am a current Teacher of Science at a large secondary school in the East Midlands. I have been teaching for 4 years, and throughout that time have taught AQA GCSE Chemistry, AQA GCSE Combined Science, and AQA A-Level Chemistry. I am an examiner for AQA Paper 2 Chemistry. This benefits my tutees as you know exactly what to write to ensure you gain maximum marks, to avoid wasting time in an exam. My lessons follow a similar structure of a retrieval activity to activate your prior knowledge and to identify any gaps, direct instruction to ensure you have a crucial understanding...

I found Georgina when we began our home educating journey. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced, with a deep understanding of how children learn. My daughter had formal lessons on comprehension and grammar, as well as sessions that encouraged creativity, exploration, and cross-curricular learning. Georgina used my daughter’s interests to teach concepts and often connected English with art and photography, making each lesson engaging and meaningful.
She was always very patient and kind, creating a calm, positive atmosphere where my daughter felt comfortable and able to learn at her own pace. The home activities she set were thoughtful and reinforced what had been covered in my daughter’s lessons.
I highly recommend her because educators with her level of insight and creativity are rare, and she truly understands how to teach children in a way that works for them.

Sutandra C
We couldn't be happier with Sutandra! He has been tutoring our son for his GCSE Physics preparation, and the results in just three months are incredible.
Sutandra has a real gift for making complex concepts clear and engaging. We've seen a significant, measurable improvement in his grades, but even more importantly, his entire attitude toward the subject has transformed. Our son now approaches Physics with genuine enthusiasm and confidence, a change we hadn't thought possible. We highly recommend Sutandra to any parent looking for an effective and inspiring tutor.

Alena S
Alena tutored my Year 12 daughter with her BTEC3 Health and Social Care when she got behind. She was a big help and my daughter's confidence is much improved through her sessions. Alena was always punctual and helpful. The experience was something my daughter enjoyed and benefitted greatly from. She was easy to deal with and I would recommend her without hesitation.

Christina V
We had a great experience with Christine. She made my nervous and shy daughter feel at ease immediately (we'd already tried a few other tutors).
Chris focused on what we asked for her focus on initially, but then moved on to different subjects when she saw my daughter was progressing well. Each session felt tailored to her learning needs.
My daughter excelled in her 11plug and won places in 2 top schools. We can't recommend Chris enough.
