Help you to engage with subjects you struggle to enjoy
I believe the best way to do well in a subject is to be engaged, regardless of ability. Whether you’re an aspiring top grade student or building your way up to the minimum pass level I can try my best to pinpoint weaknesses and push students to their limits, by combining exam based learning with more interesting ways engage with their subjects.

Find a tutor Adam S
In the space of less than a year, Adam took me from being threatened to be kicked off my course and achieving a grade E in biology to achieving a grade A on results day. Adam has extensive knowledge on the subject within and beyond the specification, in great detail to the point where there was not single question he could not answer. Pair this with his true passion for teaching and his charismatic personality, Adam is the best tutor i have ever had. He had a strong interest in my studies and would frequently bring a smile to my face. At times where i felt unmotivated, his charisma and unmatched teaching style allowed him to break down very complicated concepts into easy, digestible parts. On occasion i thought he was capable of making a 3 year old understand complex biological processes. Adam also taught me how to understand and predict mark schemes, which allowed me to feel confident while sitting my exams. Overall i would highly recommend Adam as a tutor. There is so much more i wish i could say, Adam is an excellent tutor and coach.

Najla J
Najla is a fantastic tutor and I cannot thank her enough for all the support and amazing teaching she has provided my daughter.
My daughter began lessons with Najla mid way through year 10 when she was struggling with Triple Science which resulted in her receiving grades 2,U,U in her first year 10 mocks.
Najla lessons are always well structured, she is patient and very encouraging. She made my daughter feel at ease from her first lesson and was really flexible with lessons to support my daughters tight schedule due to her extra curricular activities.
I'm happy to share my daughter achieved grades,9,8,8 in Triple Science. I'm forever grateful we found Najla I cannot recommend her enough.
