I have over 1 year's experience as an online tutor. I specialise in Economics and Biology, which I can tutor up to A Level, in addition to Maths, Chemistry and Physics, which I can tutor up to GCSE. I can also tutor Physical Education up to A Level. I took my A Levels at a college where much of my learning was independent and preparation for exams was self-taught.

Hanan R
Hanan has been an amazing tutor for my daughter over the past few months. She was really struggling with science before, but with Hanan’s support her confidence and understanding have improved so much, and her results are now noticeably better. Hanan is incredibly patient, passionate, and explains things in a clear way that actually makes sense. She genuinely cares about her students and always goes the extra mile to make sure they understand, not just memorise. I couldn’t recommend her enough. she’s a fantastic teacher!

Shihab M
My experience with Shihab as a tutor was excellent. He was able to break down complex maths questions into simple steps and answer any questions I had. He also provided useful resources to allow for consolidation of the content I had learned, which really improved my confidence and understanding in the topics he taught.

Greg S
Greg has been absolutely fantastic with my 14 year old son. He went from dreading learning to actually looking forward to sessions, which has been a huge shift for us.
Greg is highly empathetic and quickly understood Harry’s SEN profile, identifying areas of weakness and adapting his teaching style and pace to suit him perfectly. The one-to-one approach worked incredibly well for my son's anxiety, and as a result we’ve seen clear academic progress alongside a big boost in confidence.
He has also built a strong relationship with Greg in a short space of time and genuinely sees him as a trusted adult, which has made all the difference. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Greg to anyone looking for a tutor who truly understands and supports the individual child.

Jacqueline D
Booking an appointment with Jacqueline was a last ditch attempt to help my young son through a tough time at school. He had been struggling with multiplication tables that had once come very easy to him. Jacqueline was easy to communicate with, flexible and really listened to what he needed to progress and feel successful. He genuinely looked forward to his lessons and came out happy and playful from them. The result was a 25/25 on his times tables test!! What was even better was the confidence she gave him back. I couldn't recommend Jacqueline more highly. She changed math for him and put it right back where it belonged in his heart.

Teresa has been teaching my teen child for several months now. We see significant progress in literacy and vocabulary. My child is neurodivergent, and Teresa has been great in her approach; she manages to combine (1) the topics that interest my child to develop vocabulary and writing/speaking skills and (2) the essential grammar topics and UK GCSE curriculum which my child will need.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child in Southborough?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps ensure you find someone who is a great fit for their personality and learning style.
How much does online tutoring cost?

This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Some parents book a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others prefer regular weekly lessons to provide consistent support. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Is there a contract or commitment?
No, there are no contracts or hidden fees. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book. You can stop at any time, giving you complete flexibility.
