Find a tutor Caroline W
I was failing and struggling in Higher English and was not understanding it at all. At the start of January I got Caroline as a tutor who improved my grade to a D in my prelim and eventually a B in the exam. I could not recommend Caroline more as she saved my English grade. She taught me short cuts and formulas to answer the questions and went through how my answers were wrong. This made me understand English even more than I did at Nat 5 so overall she is the best teacher you can have if you are struggling.

We are having a fantastic experience with Amir this summer. He took time to understand the boys’ strengths and gaps, and has created Maths sessions that genuinely build their confidence ahead of Year 9. The sessions are structured, engaging, and communication is excellent. The boys are making real progress; evident both in their own feedback and in his. Highly recommend!

John C
John is a wonderful teacher. I had very poor knowledge about excel, but the way he constructs lessons and describes material is amazing and very effective. I was afraid that I’ll need much more time and will have more challenges during the learning, but not with this teacher. His lessons are engaging and personalised. So I’ll definitely recommend this tutor!
