John B
Successful Chemistry teacher with experience as an examiner.
I am a highly experienced Chemistry teacher who is greatly enjoying the tutoring work, both in person and now online, which I have taken on since retiring from working in schools five years ago. It is wonderful to still be able to watch as my tutees develop their understanding of Chemistry. I taught Chemistry to A level and Science to GCSE (mostly Chemistry, with some Physics and Biology) with consistent success for nearly 40 years in 4 schools, including lengthy spells as Head of Science and Deputy Headteacher in a school rated as outstanding. I am a current exam marker for Chemistry at both A...

Thomas B
I’m very grateful for the support I received. Thomas helped me improve my undergraduate dissertation at fairly short notice and was always responsive, patient, and helpful throughout the process.
His feedback was thoughtful and constructive, and it was clear he had a great deal of knowledge and experience. He took the time to explain his suggestions, which not only strengthened my dissertation but also helped me develop my academic writing more generally.
I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for support with a dissertation or wanting to improve their essay writing (perhaps for GCSEs or A-levels). His guidance was invaluable, and I really appreciated his professionalism and encouragement.

Jonas V
I cannot recommend Jonas highly enough. My daughter started her Year 10 GCSE Science preparation at a Grade 5, just before the mocks, and after a series of condensed online tutoring sessions with Jonas, she achieved a Grade 9! His teaching style is clear, engaging, and tailored to the student's individual needs. He has an excellent ability to explain challenging scientific concepts in a way that builds both understanding and confidence. Beyond improving her knowledge, he gave her the exam techniques and self-belief needed to perform at the highest level. We are incredibly grateful for his dedication and support, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Jonas to any parent looking for an outstanding Science tutor.
