Aileen L
Experienced and encouraging English Literature tutor
As an English tutor I have tutored all ages, but I specifically tutor A Level Literature where I have a wide knowledge of the curriculum - I have tutored students across all the examination boards. I am a happy and enthusiastic mature person, who believes strongly in education and the confidence and opportunities that can be gained. My first aim is to encourage and praise pupils in their work - I believe enjoyment of the subject is the key to doing well. I personally enjoy the discussions, the debates. the sparks that come with a broader knowledge of the subject. And that "light bulb" moment that...

Robert P
Robert has a great structured approach to teaching and provides excellent detailed feedback after each lesson. Robert has taught my son for over 18 months primarily with a goal to get him through his ISEBs and school entrance exams. Robert has managed to build my son's confidence to ensure he made excellent progress. I'm delighted to say this success resulted in my son getting 4/4 offers to Eton, Harrow, Radley & Tonbridge. I highly recommend Robert after our positive experience.

Anthony V
The stars given isn’t even enough. A tutor you can relay on the explain hard concepts breaks it down in easier ways to understand. He teaches you and then gives you homework and the next lesson is to rectify and move onto other topics. Everyone book Anthony.

My daughter has been having weekly maths lessons with Kiren for the last 4 months and has found Kiren to be an excellent tutor.She always checks and plans topics before the lessons,is really supportive and ensures to check my daughter's understanding before moving on to a different topic. It's really helped consolidate my daughter's maths learning and A level preparation. Would thoroughly recommend Kiren as atutor.

Samuel P
We started lessons with Samuel in June 2024, and the difference has been remarkable. Although my daughter has always had a maths tutor, her progress with Samuel has been noticeable. When we began, she had just been moved down a maths set, but since working with Samuel, she’s now in top set and is predicted to a achieve a grade 2-3 levels higher than her previous prediction.
My daughter has shared that what makes Samuel stand out is that he explains not just how to solve problems, but why the methods work. This approach has really helped her deepen her understanding and build her confidence.
We couldn’t be happier with the progress she has made - thank you, Samuel!

Sue C
Sue has been an amazing tutor for my daughter in Year 10. She helped her with Biology, Chemistry and later Physics with very well structured lessons and clear guidance to prepare for her mock GCSE exams. My daughter is attending a grammar school in London and her test schedule has been very tight and demanding. Thanks to weekly lessons with Sue, she managed to keep the right pace and improve her results, reaching a predicted GCSE grade 8 in all science subjects.
