Michael R
Experienced online and distance learning tutor
I am an experienced tutor and have been working in Somerset for the last fifteen years. In the past I have tutored students who cannot access full-time education for different reasons (health, mobility, faith and behavioural, for example) and always try to tailor my tuition to the individual's needs.I have worked as an examiner for both A level (chemistry), GCSE (sciences) and SATS (maths) so this means I am able not only to tutor the subject but also improve examination technique. Mathematics and all three sciences can be covered at GCSE in any combination and I have gained a sound working knowledge...

Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*
- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...
- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.
- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.
- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study....

Shaun H
Shaun was a incredible maths teacher who helped bridge my GCSE gaps when starting the A-level course. He actually initially taught me the course as I hadn't even got the grades to get accepted onto maths in my school, and with his help for year 12 I'm now doing well in year 13. He was a very kind and accommodating tutor. Highly recommend

Steve S
Steve has been a fantastic support for my daughter in the lead-up to her GCSE Maths exams. She had a crisis of confidence in a recent mock, dropping from her usual grade 6–7 to a 4, largely due to nerves and uncertainty around which methods to use. Since working with Steve, that confidence has really started to come back.
He has a very clear and patient way of explaining things, which makes a huge difference. Topics that previously felt intimidating, like surds, have become much more manageable, and she’s starting to approach questions with a clearer sense of direction rather than hesitation.
What stands out most is how he balances clarity with encouragement. The lessons are focused but still enjoyable, which has helped her stay engaged and motivated during a pretty high-pressure period.
We’re really pleased with the progress so far and feel much more confident about her heading into the exams aiming for a grade 7 or above. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steve to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective maths support.

Iman D
My son hasn't had the best experience in English at school and his grade is predicted to be several grades below his other subjects. We are just 3 sessions into tuition and Iman has really helped steer him back on course. He has been patient, knows exactly how to help my son, and I am really impressed that he will take the time out of our sessions to mark any practice questions my son has sent him and offer feedback. I really like how he has clewrly explained exactly what examiners are looking for in responses. I'd happily recommend Iman, particularly if you or your child needs boosting to a passing grade. My son is very happy with his tuition and so am I!
