Matthew is a phenomenal tutor. He is extremely sharp and honest in his approach to teaching, setting out clear instructions on how to write a law essay and giving me honest feedback on my writing. Matthew has been invaluable for me in going from a 2:2 in my first year to a high 2:1 overall classification. I cannot recommend him more highly! Thank You Matthew for everything.
