Hasan S
Hasan has been a great help to my son’s GCSE preparation in science and we have seen the improvement in grades over a short period of time. When we first met, Hasan clearly set out how he planned lessons which was incredibly helpful and thought-out. He has also been very flexible in terms of focusing on areas where my son has asked for support (across the 3 sciences). Extremely happy overall and we both highly recommend Hasan.

My daughter is only 2 lessons in and is thrilled we have found Holly. Not only is she super organised and prepared for the lessons but has quickly put our daughter at ease - she really enjoys Holly’s style of teaching and genuinely enjoys her lessons - Holly leaves detailed feedback and has a clear vision for what needs to be done to help Carla progress but also to build her confidence and belief in her ability. She is an excellent teacher and I would highly recommend her.
