At my previous school our geology department was awarded the best school in the U.K. by the 'Good Schools Guide' for its 'A' Level results! As an educator my approach initiates student-centred learning involving debate and discussion, avoiding being merely a dispassionate purveyor of facts. As a teacher, I prefer not lecture but encourage guided self-discovery with any student. My approach is more ‘the g...

Find a tutor Liam W
Brilliant tutor for our son. Liam is clearly a very skilled tutor on the occasions when I overheard how he engaged with our son I was really impressed. He explains things so clearly and at the right level but without waffling on and wasting time, he checks understanding as he goes along. He also set the right amount of appropriately challenging work. Our sons confidence has grown so much since being tutored by Liam and his grade has improved too. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him to A-level students.

Amirhossein S
Highly recommend this AmirHossein has an outstanding science teacher! They are incredibly supportive, patient and flexible, and always take the time to understand individual learning needs. My son started with him a couple of months ago and his first lesson was a knowledge assessment to see where he had gaps. His approach makes lessons engaging and helps build confidence as well as understanding. My son enjoys his lessons. He also has homework to reinforce what he has learnt . We’ve really appreciated their dedication and would definitely recommend them to other families.

Nick B
Nick has been a great support to my son undertaking GCSE maths tuition. Nick took time to find out what we were looking for in a tutor and we had a trial lesson to check compatibility. Nick has been easy to communicate with regarding lessons and is punctual, reliable and has tailored his lessons to my son.
My son’s feedback is that Nick gives good examples and thoroughly explains maths topics. There is clear communication throughout and Nick checks that the topic is thoroughly understood. Nick is a friendly and kind teacher.
