Richard V
Richard has helped my daughter a great deal with confidence and 1:1 tutorials going at A Level. What I liked as a parent was that he surfaced gaps in knowledge and where the school had not covered certain aspects, so my daughter was able to laser in on these. He also offered additional advice and notes so we had a good working relationship, suggesting questions. Often my daughter would highlight troublesome questions in advance then they would work through them. Richard has been responsive to messages and questions and proactive when necessary. He was a bit of a random pick but weare please we did and would recommend to others!
