My daughter struggles with maths and has a mental block, Scott was able to guide her and she felt confident when working on maths with him. Scott was patient and very understanding. He has excellent knowledge of maths and how to help pupils who struggle. Scott gave her extra worksheets which were appropriate to her level and understanding and he kept her engaged. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Matthew B
My son hated English and was let down both by his school teacher and another tutor on this platform. Desperate to help my son with his English GCSE I chanced upon Matthew’s profile on Tutorful.
Matthew tutored my son for English language and literature GCSEs- and my son’s confidence in English increased exponentially.
The English GCSE exams are tomorrow and my son is for the first time confident about facing an English exam. He is in the best position that he has ever been in his entire year for English.
Can’t thank Matthew enough for his support. My son commented that he might not miss English as subject but he will miss Matthew as a teacher- because Matthew is one of the best teachers ever.
If you are looking for an English tutor for your child- look no further and I say this in all honesty.
