Zoe P
Zoe has been absolutely incredible supporting my daughter with her iGCSE Film Studies. Sofia had missed the first 8 months of the course, but Zoe worked so closely with her to help bring her up to speed and rebuild her confidence.
She made the lessons engaging and fun, whilst also being so encouraging, patient and inspirational. Sofia can become very overwhelmed at times, and Zoe always went out of her way to support her in whatever way she could. On occasions when Sofia was unable to join the lesson, Zoe even recorded videos afterwards so we could still get the most out of the hour we had paid for.
Her flexibility, kindness and genuine care have made such a huge difference, and I honestly can’t recommend her highly enough.

Kevin A
Kevin was an excellent choice for us. He was supportive, knowledgeable and completely non-judgmental, which immediately put my daughter at ease. His guidance on how to turn factual knowledge into a strong, well-structured essay was invaluable. After her sessions with Kevin, my daughter went into her exam feeling far more confident and prepared. I would highly recommend him.

I cannot recommend Carla enough. She is a fantastic teacher whom my daughter has flourished with. She took my daughter from a grade 2 to grade 6 in mocks, she has a great teaching style and my daughter has said Carla is one of the best teachers she has ever had. She connects so well and is professional and personable. Highly recommend!!

Donald S
We only wish we had found Donald a few weeks earlier. He was able to place the methodology, exam technique and essay-writing style into a context that truly engaged our son and helped him understand the material more clearly. As a result, his independent revision became far more structured, much higher in quality and, most importantly, far less of a chore. We worked with Donald for A-level Combined English, and our son’s exam experience was the best it has ever been. We are extremely grateful for Donald’s support, and I have no doubt that the time he spent with our son, together with the more focused revision that followed, helped him feel significantly more confident going into his exams.

Jimmy E
Jimmy is an excellent tutor, who I would highly recommend. He tutored my child for GCSE computer science, he quickly built up a rapport and my son made superb progress due to his lessons. It was easy to communicate with Jimmy, and explain my sons needs, which he expertly adapted his lessons to meet them.

Rhian P
Rhian has a formal approach that ensures the hour is packed. My daughter has started to struggle with English and claims to hate it. She has used snippets of tips from Rhian at school and seems to be more positive about the subject of late. I have stopped the tutoring for now and will look to pick up from year 9.
