We started using Matthew back in February to help my son prepare for his GCSE’s as he felt he needed some extra support. He found that his sessions with Matthew helped massively and gave my son the confidence boost he needed. Matthew is always very polite and my son always felt confident after their tutoring sessions. Would highly recommend Matthew.
From Rebecca
Haven’t had Matthew for long but my son seems to be working really well with him and is motivated. I’m really pleased my son has set himself a maths goal which he has never done before. After lessons he feels proud of what he has achieved in his lesson and talks about what he has learned which is a really good sign. Matthew seems flexible and chilled! He is a thumbs up from me!
From Anna

From Ann
In a short focused timescale Richard quickly developed a good rapport with my 16 yr old boy. Focusing on his gaps and consolidating what he did know , my sons confidence grew and having been predicted a pass , final GCSE maths was a grade 7. Son delighted and in his own words refers to Matt as ‘ a legend’. I would highly recommend Matt .
From Jules
Matthew has been a brilliant tutor for my 13 year old. My son is autistic and needed help to catch up from missed maths lessons in school. He feels more confident now going back in September to year 9. I would highly recommend Matthew as a tutor.
From Emma
Matthew is a fantasic tutor, he has gone above and beyond and really taken the time to get to know my son and the best way he learns to bring him back up to speed after the distruption of Lockdown. Highly recommend.
From claire
Matthew has been an excellent maths tutor for my 15 year old son who is in year 10. My son is dyslexic and was very reluctant to have a tutor due to a previous neative experience. However, he felt comfortable with Matthew from the first sessions and has been happy to continue. My son has explained that he does not feel comfortable to ask for additional help and explanations in school but is very happy to ask Matthew, who explains new concepts in a clear way. My son feels his maths is definately improving. Matthew began tutoring my son just before lockdown and we transitioned to online tutoring with ease. Matthew has been patient while we have got used to setting up skype. I thoroughly recommend Matthew as a tutor and am delighted my son is benefitting from his lessons.
From Karen
Extremely happy with the tuition from Richard and would definitely recommend.
From Tracey
Matthew is currently helping my 8 year old develop his core maths skills, not only to bring him up to the correct educational level for his year group but also giving him the confidence to use numbers and to enhance his learning to prepare him for SATs and 11+… Matthew is patient, understanding, committed and approachable. As parents we would not ask for better qualities in a tutor. We would highly recommend Matthew.
From Vicky
Matthew has made excellent progress with my daughter so far and she is becoming more confident each week which is great.
From Paul
Matt helped Annabelle get the A grade that she needed to get into the course of her choice. Highly recommended.
From Daniela
I strongly recommend Matthew to anyone who wants to help their children progress in math.He is very reliable and nice person willing to help. My son is very impressed with his vast and profound knowledge in math as well as with his professionalism of teaching.
From Olivia
Matthew is supporting my daughter (year 10) with GCSE maths. We have only recently engaged Matthew but I can already see a difference in my daughter's confidence with maths. (she is very shy and was reluctant to have a tutor, but she is now glad she has). I can recommend Matthew as a very patient teacher, who spends the time needed to explain concepts that my daughter struggles with clearly and without making her feel stupid.
Thanks
From Lynn
Matthew is a great chap who has related extremely well to our son. He is kind and considerate and incredibly helpful. We knew our son had missed a chunk of learning through illness but 3 other teachers had tried and failed to work out which bit - Matthew seems to have cracked it. We are very happy

Matthew has been teaching my son A'level Maths for the past six weeks. He is a great teacher - bright, young and enthusiastic with a very relaxed personality. My son looks forward to his lessons with Matthew and is coming on really fast because Matthew uses the time very effectively - sometimes getting through two chapters in one two hour session! My son says that Matthew is very good at adjusting the pace of the lesson so he never feels bored or hurried, and Matthew explains things in a way that makes the concepts easy to grasp. I would recommend Matthew highly to anyone looking for a tutor im Maths.
