Adora P
PGCE tutor — KS1/KS2 English, Phonics & SATs | Online & IG11
Hi! I’m a fully qualified UK primary teacher with over five years of classroom experience, and I now specialise in 1:1 tutoring for children aged 5–11. I’ve taught every year group from Reception to Year 6 and have helped many children grow in confidence — especially in phonics, maths, reading and SATs preparation.I started tutoring because I’ve seen first-hand how personalised support can unlock a child’s potential. I remember one Year 3 pupil who struggled with writing; by breaking tasks into small steps, using visuals and positive reinforcement, she went from reluctant writer to story-lovin...

Krishni R
A patient and attentive tutor happy to help!
Hi there, my name is Krishni! I am a Law and Sociology graduate from the University of Warwick, and now I am doing my legal masters. From all the trial and errors I have undergone, my mission is to transform grades and confidence.I had struggled throughout school in terms of focus and struggling with the ‘one-size-fits all’ approach school teachers left me with. I would constantly get reprimanded and disheartened with my grades. After many MANY trial and errors, I finally figured out how to personalise and tailor the curriculum to ME and saw results almost straight away. This tailoring method is ...

Umar P
A tailored solution for your exam success!
Hi, I’m Umar - a final year medical student with years of tutoring experience (both online and in-person)!I like to get to know my students well in order to find an approach that works best for them, rather a one-size-fits-all approach that is neither understandable nor fun to learn. A typical lesson with me would involve a quick assessment of your understanding of a topic or skill, followed by an explanation and demo. After that, most of the lesson will be spent doing questions together; letting you take the lead and only intervening when you get stuck. I find this approach to be much more engaging a...

Zohra M
Tutor that makes the harder STEM concepts easier!
Hi! I am Zohra and I am currently studying Biochemistry at University. To be completely honest Biology was my least favourite Science out of the three - funnily enough it forms the majority of my degree. It was very challenging in the beginning but I can assure you that it does get easier, only by having patience and consistently putting in hard work!I studied for my A Levels during the pandemic when we had online lessons which was a challenge to get used to but from this experience. I can empathise with the feeling of online studying and working on your own as I have been in your shoes before!...

Ffion W
Absolutely fabulous.. my daughter was in tears this week as her teachers at college refused to help , and isolated her from the class. Tonight after just one hour with Ffion, she has turned a corner for my daughter, going from feeling like a failure to feeling positive again and given her hope that she can do this. Cant thank her enough .. will definitely be booking her again.

Greg B
Greg is a fantastic tutor, he makes the lessons fun and is very patient.
Greg was very thorough and thoughtful in his prep and feedback for each lesson provided. He gave us regular updates post each class regarding what was covered and progress on the topic and was very flexible and a total pleasure.
Greg has successfully tutored my son through the 11+ exams and my son looked forward to his sessions with Greg each week. I can’t recommend Greg enough!

Nigel Q
My 15-year-old son is working through the GCSE Spanish with Nigel. I am very relieved to have found such a good teacher. He is clear and thorough, and he encourages him throughout the lessons. It is clear that Nigel knows the syllabus well and is an experienced teacher, which in my opinion is very important for the exams. Most importantly, my son enjoys the lessons and thinks Nigel is an excellent teacher.
I also rate this site 5 stars. It is clear and simple to use.

Siobhan R
My son has been tutoring with Siobhan for quite a while now and all i can say is how fantastic she has been in guiding him through his mathematics journey!
Her patience, ways of explaining and using visuals to help him understand, the time she takes to get to know how he learns and checking to ensure he fully grasps a concept, are all very commendable!
His confidence has increased and he looks forward to his lessons knowing that Siobhan will be there to support him in a subject that previously he was very anxious about.
