Tony M
Tony worked with our daughter for about a year in preparation for her GCSEs, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. He made the lessons enjoyable and was incredibly flexible with the content, tailoring sessions to suit her needs. He thoroughly covered past papers and explained concepts in a clear, easy-to-understand way.
Most importantly, Tony built a fantastic rapport with our daughter, which really boosted her confidence and motivation. Thanks to his support, she achieved grade 9s in all three science GCSEs!
We were so impressed that we've now booked Tony again for our younger daughter, who’s just starting Year 10. Highly recommended — thank you, Tony!

Leer L
Leer is such a kind, patient, and encouraging tutor. She has been helping me with my A-Level Chemistry and uses amazing slides to explain complex concepts clearly. Whenever I don’t understand something, she takes the time to explain it thoroughly without making me feel rushed. Even when she’s not immediately sure of an answer, she puts in so much effort to find it for me. I would highly recommend her!

Uzma A
Uzma has been helping our daughter prepare for her 11+ exam. Their weekly sessions over the last three months have really helped to increase both her knowledge and her confidence ahead of the exam. Uzma was very good at identifying areas where she could add value and would focus on those both within the lesson and the homework she provided, giving our daughter chance to put her new learning into practice. She was really patient and good at explaining everything.
