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...

David is definitely one of the best tutors I have ever had! I am a university student and reached out to him about two months ago, wanting to learn Latin from scratch for personal interest, with the goal of sitting the GCSE Latin exam in about six months. While most tutors I approached dismissed this as unrealistic, David took on the challenge without hesitation.
His lessons are truly exceptionally well delivered, with a level of precision that reflects thorough preparation and extensive teaching experience. Through our weekly lessons, we have been able to cover more than half of the language component of the GCSE within just 2 months! But more importantly, I am able to retain the material effectively because David consistently incorporates active recall into our lessons and offers really useful advice on how to memorise things by building logical connections. His explanations are clear and succinct, lessons are well structured, and his ability to adjust the pace to my progress has made the learning process both manageable and effective.
David is also incredibly patient and motivating. His teaching style gives me full confidence that he can work effectively with learners of all levels and backgrounds. I would highly recommend him as you Latin tutor!

Heena is truly unique!
A brilliant tutor that truly teaches and connects with the child. Exactly what my son needed. She is understanding and supportive. Before seeing Heena he was in maths support for his year.
We have been working with her for 5 months. He recently completed his first term assessment paper and got 88 percent - he was so happy and couldn't wait to share with Heena. He honestly enjoys the sessions and its wonderful to see him grow in confidence in the subject.I recommend Heena highly!
