Evan's Feedback

Evan is a kind, patient and very knowledgeable tutor. He finds engaging ways to explain often complex topics and his sessions are both educational and fun! He has helped greatly with my son’s confidence in particular in view of his dyslexia. He is willing to take time to explain things in a way he understands so after a lesson he feels enthused that things make sense! Thank you Evan.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been described as “English smart.” I’ve always found myself drawn to the world of words , where ideas stretch beyond their literal meanings, where complexity is embraced, and where uncertainty is allowed to exist without needing to be solved. Literature gave me space to think, feel, and interpret. Maths, by contrast, felt entirely the opposite: fixed, cold, structured, and absolute.

It was, in my mind, a foreign language, one I had neither the tools nor the courage to speak. I had grown comfortable with the narrative that “maths just isn’t for me,” especially when I was predicted a grade 5. It felt inevitable, and in some ways, even acceptable, after all, if I was excelling in one area, maybe it was natural to fall short in another.

And then I met Evan.

From the very first lesson, it was clear that I wasn’t just being taught by someone knowledgeable, I was learning from someone who loved what he taught. His passion for mathematics was striking. He spoke about numbers the way a writer speaks about language: with reverence, with energy, and with deep affection. For him, maths wasn’t about getting answers; it was about understanding patterns, appreciating structure, and learning to trust in the quiet logic behind even the most complex problems.

He made maths feel alive, not in a loud or overwhelming way, but in a steady, consistent way that built my confidence session by session. He had this extraordinary ability to meet me exactly where I was. Never impatient, never dismissive, he gently reshaped how I saw the subject and, more importantly, how I saw myself.

Where I had once seen maths as a rigid, impersonal set of rules, he helped me uncover its simplicity and beauty. I began to understand that, like a well-crafted sentence, an equation follows a pattern, and once you find that pattern, the rest begins to fall into place. Slowly, the fear that had always accompanied numbers began to fade. In its place, there grew a quiet confidence, the kind that doesn’t shout, but holds steady.

And that confidence wasn’t just limited to maths. Something far more valuable happened: I started to believe in my ability to grow, to improve, and to surprise myself. Evan never once allowed me to define myself by a predicted grade or a past struggle. His belief in me was so consistent, so calm, that I eventually began to believe it myself.

His teaching went beyond content, it was transformative. He didn’t just prepare me for an exam; he rewrote the internal narrative I had built around what I could and couldn’t do. I stopped seeing maths as a closed door and started to see it as a new language I could, with time and the right guide, learn to speak. What once felt impossible now feels not only achievable, but often enjoyable.

Today, I approach maths with a sense of clarity and assurance I never thought I would possess. And beyond that, I carry with me something far more lasting: the knowledge that with the right guidance, patience, and belief, anything is possible. I no longer see myself as simply “English smart.” I see myself as a learner in every sense of the word, curious, capable, and open.

For all of this and more, I am endlessly grateful to Evan. His passion, patience, and unwavering belief in his students make him an exceptional tutor. But more than that, he is someone who changes the way people see themselves. I recommend him without hesitation and with the deepest respect and appreciation.

My daughter was in the midst of her GCSE exams & had already sat Maths paper 1. She is a very smart girl who excels in most subjects.
Maths however has always been a struggle for her. Although I have always felt that she was very capable her lack of confidence & dare I say dislike for the subject has been a huge stumbling block and one that previous tutors unfortunately had not helped her navigate around.

I asked Evan if he was able to provide some last minute emergency revision sessions before Papers 2 & 3 & he was more than happy to accommodate in between his already busy tutoring schedule.

His evident enthusiasm for the subject, his unique teaching style, his patience & the fact that he’s a genuinely lovely, personable man was so refreshing to witness & definitely had a positive impact on my daughter.

We are yet to get her results but for the first time she came out of a maths exam with a smile on her face, exuding quiet confidence.

Regardless of whether these sessions have added valuable points to her predicted grades (& I’m completely sure they have) I cannot thank Evan enough for how he made my daughter feel about the subject & her ability to master it.

Im generally not one for leaving reviews of any kind but felt I had to take the time in this case. If you are trying to find an excellent Maths tutor I cannot recommend Evan highly enough!

Evan has been tutoring my daughter in Maths and Physics. My daughter has found Evan to be clear, patient and kind. He works at her pace, and is both encouraging to her and infectiously enthusiastic about the subjects. Would highly recommend Ev as a tutor who will benefit both the level of understanding and the confidence of your child - an excellent tutor and a great person. Has also coped heroically with our bouncy dog!

Evan has been a wonderful physics tutor and such a lovely person to learn from. He has such a kind and supportive personality who never fails to make me smile during our lessons. He ensures I understand all the content and goes through past papers to make sure I am fully prepared for my exams.
I have just finished my GCSEs and both Evan and his wife Paula have helped me so much in science and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for help - without a doubt!
