Ben H
Experienced and engaging tutor of English and music.
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

Effective tutor
My name is Lauren, I am a current BA Theology student at Canterbury Christ Church University. I have tutored in GCSE geography before online.

I have also tutor in GCSE English, although I don’t offer that service anymore, I approach the teaching in a similar way. For example, we would discuss relevant quotations and language techniques. Again focusing on weaker parts at stages, I did make sure to cover as much as possible with both s...

Robert is an exceptional Further Maths tutor with an expanse of knowledge. He uses different techniques for demonstrating the topics using lots of exam questions.

Sunil P
My daughter has been working with Sunil for more than 3 months from the start of year 9 towards GCSE. We went with Sunil because his sole focus is on Physics, unlike lots of of other tutors who presents them self as "jack of all trades", as I believe in specialisation. My daughter finds Sunil lessons very helpful. Sunil experience as an examiner is rare and his focus on exact exam answers is very valuable. We asked for homework which Sunil has been happy to provide and check. He is kind and very enthusiastic about physics. I would strongly recommend Sunil as a Physics tutor

Salma A
I have been using Salma as an Arabic tutor for my daughter. The lessons have always run very smoothly. She is very punctual and organised. My daughter found her to be very gentle, engaging and funny which has helped her alot to enjoy the language and to want to learn and do her work.
As a parent, I found that I could communicate openly and honestly with Salma and she has always been very reassuring in her responses, explaining things very clearly.
Thank you Salma for a wonderful experience.

Sam F
Sam has been truly inspirational for our son, Chester. He really wants to study triple Science for GCSES and struggles with remembering so much information and confidence. Our son is dyslexic and has dyspraxia and constantly struggles with reading accurately and using scientific vocabulary. Sam has so much experience in these areas and has spent time building Chester’s confidence so he can access Physics, Biology and Chemistry successfully. It is giving Chester time to revisit lessons that he feels he needs more time on, as well as practise more challenging skills. Sam has shown extensive knowledge not only in his subjects but also with learning challenges and special educational needs. We cannot thank Sam enough and plan to continue with Chester’s twice weekly lessons. His success has continued with amazing lesson reviews and also the results of Chester’s recent year 10 mock exams. Thank you Sam.

Lucie has been working with my son for four months on his 11+ Verbal and Non-verbal Reasoning, and I'm really impressed. She’s very patient and genuinely involved in the lessons. Lucie managed to build a great connection with my son right from the start. Her subject knowledge is excellent, and she explains things clearly without ever making him feel rushed.
My son made solid progress and grew much more confident. I’d happily recommend Lucie to anyone looking for a kind, reliable and effective tutor.
