John helped my son prepare for the Oxford Physics Aptitude test and was very helpful and encouraging.
From Joanne
After initially saying he would be able to teach our daughter (and we paid first tutors finders fee) John then decided he could not proceed and teach as everything being online would make lesson preparation too time consuming, and he believed my daughter wouldn’t get lessons of ‘true value’.
At the time I accepted I did not realise that the titre was following an I gcse course where support materials amounted to over 600 pages
From Caroline
John helped my son build his confidence in his ability to do maths, which was not an easy task!. John was always professional, reliable and flexible.His approach to teaching, helped my son to feel relaxed and build confidence, which facilitated learning.I would recommend John as a tutor for maths. Thankyou John for all your help with my son it was much appreciated !
From Christine
John provided a sound back up for A level physics when my son was really struggling. He provided lessons which were key to understanding and made concepts easy to apply. He was always prompt, delivered the lesson for the required length of time and my son was very happy with his tuition. The end result was a sound pass in the subject which had worried my son the most. Highly recommended
It was a pleasure tutoring James .He was always attentive and thoroughly deserves the just reward for his hard work. I wish him well in the next stage of his studies.
From Zoe
John tutored my son in GCSE mathematics for the first year of the new grading scheme (numbers rather than letters).
My son was tracking for a level 4 (low C) following his mock exams. He needed a minimum level 6 to go on and study A-Level Economics. He was told by his teachers that it was unlikely he'd achieve his 'aspirational' goal at a one-to-one meeting to discuss his A-Level options, so he should pick another A-Level instead.
I accept it was a big ask in short period of time to up his game not just by one level, but two. However, John provided excellent advice, guidance and tutoring - most specifically giving my son tips as to how to best handle questions and tackle exam papers. I have no doubt this played a huge part in him achieving his level 6 and I doubt he would have made this progress without this assistance and support.
John was very natural and relaxed in his approach which suited our son down to the ground. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
I am very grateful for the generous comments posted by Zoe

John helps my daughter with Physics. She feels now huge progress since they started lessons. Excellent tutor and meets the needs of my daughter perfectly. Very knowledgable, friendly, experienced and would definitely recommend to other parents.
I am grateful for the generous comments. I am very pleased with Alexandra`s progress and particularly her growth in confidence.
