Experienced online and distance learning tutor
I am an experienced tutor and have been working in Somerset for the last fifteen years.

Mathematics and all three sciences can be covered at GCSE in any combination and I have gained a sound working knowledge...

Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*
- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...
- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.
- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.
- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study....

Daniel H
We had really happy to found Daniel as English teacher to my son Lucas. my son really enjoys the lessons and really looking forward to class. Daniel is very nice, patient , and highly structured in the way he teaches. After just few lessons, my son has already learnt a lot. Daniel was able to identify the problems that were affecting my son's English results before and clearly explained how to improve them which has given him much more confident. We truly appreciate Daniel's professional approach, clear guidance, and encouragement. Highly recommend for students who want to improve their English skills and writing ability.

Si N
Absolute lifesaver! I started with Si slightly over a month before my exams, and he has helped me tremendously in properly grasping the content in each topic, as well as great tips on essay structuring and additional studies that really help boost my essay quality and depth. Having Si alongside my revision has not only helped my knowledge, but also my confidence as I do my exams. His approach using past papers and more active learning really helped me engage in learning and focus, which was super helpful with my ADHD. Overall, I highly recommend!
