Ian B
I can highly recommend Ian who worked with my son over several weeks to support his sociology a level knowledge and exam skills. He went from quite a poor performance in the trial exam to achieving an A in the real thing which I am sure is down to the extra input from Ian.

At the start of year 13, I was struggling with exam techniques for OCR geography and was averaging Bs in topic tests. This tutor has been incredibly helpful in supporting me and tailoring lessons to the topics I was struggling with and I'm proud to say I achieved an A in my final exams thanks to his help. I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing help with A level geography at any stage.

Fantastic! Super helpful in helping me understand the mark schemes and conquer the system! Specifically very helpful with biology essays and learning what to put in to get the marks!

Pippa C
Pippa is an excellent tutor, she was brilliant at accommodating the way that I learn, which really helped for me understand film studies!! Pippa is so good at breaking down all the information you need and helps you in the lesson to do past paper questions with the content, which really helped for exam technique and learning the content.
Pippa made a huge difference, and my final grade for film studies reflected this, I went up 2 Grades from my mock!
In addition to this, she was always helpful outside the lesson times, as she would respond to any questions I had, whenever I needed help in a topic.
I highly recommend Pippa as a tutor!

Veronika R
I couldn’t recommend Veronika enough! I only started the Russian A-level course in Year 13 and with her help I was able to achieve an A*. As I already speak Russian, my main challenge was getting used to the A-Level course, exam technique and knowing exactly what was expected of me. She was incredibly knowledgeable, supportive and patient and always explained things clearly. She played a huge part in helping me achieve my A*, and I’m so grateful for all her help throughout the year. I would definitely recommend her to anyone doing Russian!
