Jim's Feedback

Jim tutored my son on the lead up to his GSCE Maths exams. They got on well and Jim’s methodical techniques helped give my son the confidence to tackle challenging maths problems.

Ultimately my son enjoyed Jim’s approach to learning, with emphasis more on the journey rather than the answer. Jim had a direct and collaborative method of working through solutions which went a long way towards my son’s comprehension of how to arrive at an answer with clear working.

We can fully recommend Jim and will be looking him up again should my son continue to study Maths in his A levels.

Freddie is really enjoying the sessions and comes out of each one ‘buzzing’ I think he is staying to feel much more confident about Physics!!

Professional, nice and helped me understand some physics concepts with good exams tips too

Very patient and considered approach, a focus on understanding which is essential in mathematics, Jim is very good at reading his student's ability and ensuring the learning process is effective.

My daughter is very happy with the help she is getting with her Maths A level course

Excellent and very experienced tutor who knows precisely what is needed to succeed.
Would recommend Jim without hesitation.

Highly recommend ! Excellent tutor.

Jim was helpful and understanding in regards to my work enquiry however, due to the nature of the module and services Jim offered, it was not suitable to my needs.

Jim is an excellent tutor who has been able to unlock the mysteries of physics for Raoul. He is always well prepared and keeps pushing Raoul to answer the most difficult questions on each topic. He is very patient and his ability to explain the difficult concepts in simple terms is skill few physics tutors have. Thank you.

Max is finding his sessions with you very useful indeed.

Top Tutor, making a read difference for our son.

Thank you for your help and encouragement

Jim is a great tutor. Very friendly and encouraging whilst most importantly giving clear and frank explinations. I really enjoyed our sessions together and feel i have improved significantly. I really appreciated all his advice and support.

Thanks Jim!
Clara

Excellent at explaining concepts and lets you practice the questions so you really solidify your understanding.

Great tutor A real confidence boost for my son ahead of a big exam, thank you.

My son has had two sessions with Jim and all seems to have gone well. Jim has made things which seemed difficult seem a bit easier… which is exactly what we were hoping for !

My daughter is working with Jim to help consolidate some A-Level Physics knowledge. So far, he's been very helpful; clear, concise and she's very happy working with him.

Sacha really appreciated her first tutorial

working with Jim has improved my son's confidence in maths.Rather than dictating what topics they would cover,Jim encouraged him to practice questions at home and bring these back to direct the learning.This meant my son had to be much more engaged in the learning process which I think helped him.He found Jim's explanations very clear and easy to understand.

very happy with service received - exactly what was needed

Jim has been helping me work towards my Maths OCR A Level due for examination summer 2019. Jim is an amazing tutor, he is totally understanding and I am never afraid to tell him when I don't understand things.He manages to explain difficult concepts very clearly, shows me what I really need to know and we have plenty of time in our sessions to work through exam questions.
I highly recommend Jim.
Thank you.
Jamie

Jim is an excellent tutor. He engaged quickly with my son and was really helpful in helping him understand the topics that were causing difficulty.

After her first tutorial with Jim, it was clear to my daughter that he was going to make a measurable difference to her understanding of the Physics A Level syllabus. Jim is very good at explaining difficult concepts and has a no nonsense but sympathetic approach to teaching. I look forward to seeing my daughter's confidence improve with each passing week.

He is very experienced,professional and knowledgeable. Explain everything very well
I would recommend him to anyone as I plan on continuing sessions with him.

Jim, the tuition you have provided Emma leading up to her A-Level Maths exams has at times given her a different way at looking at problems a solutions and given her much greater confindence in the subject matter. As a result Emma was able to improve her AS modules by two grade levels and acieve the overall A-Level result she needed to get in to her preferred University course. Your tuition was definitley a significant factor in helping Emma achieve this.

Many thanks Ken and Emma

Jim was a fantastic tutor for me this year, his ability to breakdown topics to help me understand the concepts was very useful! He was also extremely patient when i'd struggle, and would push me to tackle the most difficult questions! I would like to thank Jim for his services this year, and would highly recommend to any other A-level students!

Very quickly understood problem & provided excellent explanation & strategies to solve any difficulties with A level statistics. My daughter felt much more confident & able to tackle these problems afterwards. Would definitely recommend.

Jim really helped our daughter who was struggling with some areas of A2 maths. He was very thorough and provided support questions in the areas she was weaker in. I am very happy to recommend him .

My son is in his 2nd year at Imperial reading Physics and needed some guidance before his end of year exams. Jim put in many hours of preparation time before the tutorial and was very helpful in answering his questions and bolstering his confidence.

Brilliant tutor. Thorough and great explanations. My son achieved an A at GCSE due to his help.

Jim worked with my son who is preparing for his Maths A level this summer on a particular aspect of the subject. He was very efficient and prompt in all correspondence, gave clear instructions as to where we would meet up and what information he expected my son to bring with him. His teaching was a genuine help and provided clarity on certain issues. In the tutoring period they covered a great deal of ground and helped my son with areas of the curriculum he had missed due to illness. He was able to advise on aspects of study and exam performance that my son struggles with. We were very happy with this experience and would be glad to ask for Jim's services again.

my daughter has had her first lesson with Jim and is very happy.

Jim is excellent tutor.My daughter said "he makes the physics very simple and easy to understand" . My daughter starting to enjoy physics again after having a lesson with jim. She even ask me to book math lessons with Jim.I wish i knew him long time ago. Thank you so much jim. you are star.

Jim has an in-depth understanding of both maths and physics and was able to quickly discern the help I needed. He is very patient and all lessons (both in person and over Skype) helped me feel confident and prepared. I would highly recommend Jim!

We used Jim for a few weeks leading up to Physics A level for our daughter.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Jim; he helped give our daughter added confidence heading into the exams.

I would strongly recommend Jim as a tutor for GCSE Maths and Sciences. Jim was very patient and thorough with our sons tutoring, very pleased to say he got all his required grades in these subjects, to move on to his chosen college A level courses! Thank You again Jim.

When my son started working with Jim he was disinterested in physics due to the college tutors. He was predicted a D and had an E in one of the As modules. Jim was very patient and enthusiastic about the subject. Adam enjoyed his sessions. I felt able to liaise with Jim about progress. To secure his place at uni he needed a C. He re took the As module and converted the E to an A. In the A level he got a C but was 3 marks off a B. We were delighted that With Jims help he gained his place at his preferred university. I would highly recommend Jim.

jim has been involved, attentive and proactive in helping francesco attain his goals. it was important that he not only knew his subject very well but was able to adapt his teaching to the specific areas and techniques that gave francesco the maximum benefit.
thank you.

Jim tutored our son for Maths and Further Maths during his A2 year. Our son found him patient, approachable and very good at providing specific help for areas where he needed additional explanations. The sessions with Jim gave him a real confidence boost going into his exams and we are definitely planning to use Jim to help our next son with both AS and A2 levels.

Excellent style of teaching which really made me understand each step of the methods used. Very understanding and encouraging!

My sone missed some school time due to a sports injury and needed 'fill in' tutoring to cover the areas that he had missed. Jim did a fantastic job and was able to confirm his understanding of the areas that he had covered and filling in the areas that he had missed. An excellent tutor and we have already recommended him to some of our friends.

Jim is an excellent tutor, I would recommend him to anyone taking physics at any level, he explains and describes things in such an understandable way and his approach to teaching and learning is so simple and effective.

Unfortunately we were unable to use Jim (who did seem to be an ideal tutor for our son) as we were not keen to have the tutoring in the Discovery Centre. We prefer to have it in the home environment.

Very patient and very clear to understand!

Jim is helping our son with physics, he is in his first year of college and on attending a parent evening realised that he was struggling, it was,a case of pupil and tutor breakdown, so our son began to lose confidence and not engage in lessons. Since working with Jim our son has understood the subject much more and has now started to engage in classroom discussions and feels far more,confident that he will reach his goal grade with Jim's continued help. When I met Jim he was very informative and gave lots of very interesting points to,help us on our journey through college which has been invaluable. Our son is very happy attending a weekly session with Jim which is fantastic.

Jim was the best tutor I could of asked for. I really recommend him. I will be using him in the future.

Jim has been a great help for my son who is doing A level Maths and Physics. In AS level he managed to get an A for both the subjects.
Jim also helps my other son who is doing GCSE with his maths and science subjects. He too has improved although not as much as my elder son.
Just be slightly flexible with the time as Jim can get very busy on certain day.
Recommended.

Jim has been very helpful to my daughter. We would have no hesitation in recommending him.

I cannot recommend Jim too highly: since he has been helping my Son in his A2 Maths, his test scores have improved markedly. Jim is very flexible in arranging times and locations and has a very calm, personable and no fuss approach to the tuition sessions. He knows exactly what to focus on and how to resolve problems areas effectively. Highly recommended …

Excellent and very helpful. Thank you

Mr. Jim is quite an extraordinary tutor who has aided me to achieve an A in my IGCSEs.
I am grateful for his support and his outstanding sincerity as well as his professionalism.

Jim assisted my son with his A level maths, in particular with a retake AS maths statistics module, many thanks he got an A in this module. Jim is reliable and calm, providing reassurance and confidence to his pupil. I have no reservations about recommending his tutoring highly.

Jim has been really accommodating to fit around our complex lives! This was one of the most important factors for us when selecting a tutor as me and my daughter don't live in the same county! Jim has met with Emily and the first session went well with Emily feeling increased in confidence. Jim suggested some flexible arrangements for the tutoring which will work well for us.

we highly recommend jim,we found him both patient,tolerant and calm,he has helped our son build his confidence whilst studying maths 'As' level and also to achieve a 'B' in his GCSE retake.
we hope to use jims services again once our son begins his second year of A levels!

Hi Jim

Thanks so much for your help. It enabled me to get a secure B in physics which got me into my first choice uni at Loughborough. Thanks so much. Am really happy!!

Jim has been extremely helpful and gone over the various GCSE maths topics my daughter hadn't fully grasped at school. He was kind, calm and gave my daughter the confidence she was lacking. Jim was approachable, his teaching skills, time keeping, availability etc were all excellent. I would certainly contact him again and therefore would highly recommend him.

Jim was very friendly, helpful and supportive. He makes maths much easier to understand.

Jim tutored my son in A-Level and Further Maths. He has an excellent teaching method which has made all the difference in the understanding of various difficult topics for my son. We will continue to use him and could not recommend him more highly. Thank you Jim!

I am an IB student and Jim helped me really much in preparing for my exam. He explains everything in great detail and he makes difficult things seem easy. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with A-level or IB Physics.

My son came away from each session with a smile on his face - Jim has been very good at helping him understand areas of maths with which he was previously struggling. He is also very flexible in his approach and my son is very happy with the arrangements. Highly recommended!

We have meet up with Jim. Very happy. My son feels he is able to understands areas in Maths that he was struggling with once Jim has spent time going through the topic. Very impressed!
Thank you
Angela Curtis

Jim was professional, prompt and approachable. He was very thorough with help on the Physics topics I found difficult. He was flexible with his appointments and each lesson was planned in advance depending on what I needed help with. He was able to go through topics, discuss problems and check understanding. I felt confident and well prepared for my exams. Many thanks.

My daughter was reluctant when we first mentioned finding a Tutor to help her with maths but she enjoys her sessions with Jim and finds them extremely useful. She would not want to go back to struggling on her own. She says that Jim's approach does not make her feel stupid and therefor she is not afraid to ask the questions that she feels she cannot ask in class.

Friendly and very helpful helpful. Problem solving approach to maths tuition.

My son received a D is in his Jan 2013 Physics module, Jim provided some tuition and his AS Level result is now an A!!!!
My son found him easy to talk and discuss the subject… in his words Jim was amazing!!
Thanks so much Minnie

Very responsive & helpful. Happy to recommend.

Thank you very much for your help to find tutor. I have made contact with Jim.

Irian

Jim is an excellent tutor for both Physics and Maths for AS level, he is very strong in both subjects and I will be using him again throughout next year for both subject for the final A level exams

My son had A-level Physics tutoring with Jim following some disappointing marks in his January exams, and his confidence and knowledge have improved immeasurably as a result. Jim's explanations are very thorough and he corrected the basic ideas which my son had misunderstood. My son's physics exam is tomorrow and he going into it with a much better grounding in the subject and is much more confident of getting the result he is capable of and deserves.

Jim's tutoring of my son has been excellent. There has been a marked improvement in his confidence and ability in physics. I would highly recommend him to others.

A very patient tutor who gives good examples to make sure that the student understands what is being asked of them. Very good assistance given when working through past papers.

Our son has found Jim to be approachable and friendly. He has been able explain the theory and its application to real life situations. He has also helped him gain confidence in methods of calculation. Jim's positive approach has enabled Robert to gain confidence in his own ability in this subject.

I had Maths tutoring with Jim for a couple of hours and it really cleared up a few misconceptions that I had as well as re-learning some old topics. We really could go at a fast pace compared with college as it was one on one and his techniques are really useful. I would definitely recommend Jim as a tutor for Maths.

Great tutor, very patient and explained very well.

Excellent Tutor for my daughter

He is very good at teaching. He has helped with things that I have struggled with and now I have improved a lot thanks for him.

Calm, tailored and supportive tutoring. James is really able to understand taught concepts in a way he finds difficult in a large group. He looks forward to his lessons and his confidence is growing. Thanks Jim.
