Recent Testimonials
"Nick is a really engaging tutor who has good knowledge of what he is teaching and the syllabus. The lessons are very interactive going through questions and explaining it very well. I have noticed that when I am struggling with a question, I am given sufficient prompts for me to find the answer. Highly recommend!"

"Thank you for everything. I think I would have failed the exams without you."
Success Story
I began tutoring a student who had recently moved to a new school and struggled to progress past Grade 3 due to the change in teaching style. Over the past 9 months, we have worked through a number of topics and past exam papers. He is now consistently achieving his goal of a Grade 5 (strong Pass) and has received an offer for his choice of sixth form.

"Thomas has tutored both me and my brother for A Level Maths and was excellent in perparing us for our exams. He is brilliant at explaining things in a logical way and has a calm, kind demeanour."
----------------
"Tom has evidenced sustained commitment to the role of mentor support with pupils who have at times struggled with confidence and his calm, focused, bespoke approach to managing not only their barriers to learning but enhancing their capacity to perceived has been a credit to him."
----------------
"Tom ensured that I properly understood what I was doing, and why I was doing certain things in order to answer the questions."
Success Story
One of my tutees came to me after he didn’t do as well in his AS levels as he would have hoped. To achieve the grades acquired to take Civil Engineering at University, he decided to retake his AS level maths exams at the same time as his A level exams. He has worked extremely hard with me over the past year and will hopefully receive the good news he deserves this August.

Recent Testimonial
"The in-depth explanations and research provided on drug mechanisms of action were incredibly helpful. It made pharmacology much easier to understand, and the notes given have been a great resource for revision. The sessions were well-structured and tailored to my needs, making it a great learning experience."
Success Story
When I first started working with a pharmacology student, he struggled with core concepts such as pharmacokinetics, mechanisms of action, and structuring coursework. Despite his efforts, he scored 52/100 on an essay and didn’t understand why.
Through our sessions, we simplified complex topics, refined his essay-writing skills, and focused on critically analysing drug mechanisms. With a clearer understanding and improved study approach, he gained confidence in tackling exam questions.
As a result, he achieved a First (70/100) in his future coursework - a significant improvement reflecting his progress and deeper grasp of pharmacology.
Teaching Style
My teaching style is clear, structured, and tailored to each student's needs, focusing on breaking down complex concepts into simple, digestible explanations. I encourage active learning, critical thinking, and exam-focused strategies to build confidence and mastery in the subject.

Teaching Style
I tailor my style of teaching to the student I’m working with, always trying to build up from the foundations of their current understanding and making connections using real world examples to swiftly progress into a higher skill level. My sessions typically involve lots of problem solving and facing exam style questions head on, while taking the time to break down any complicated or unfamiliar concepts into digestible parts. I am always reassuring, patient, and engaged with my students to optimise their learning.

“Asher makes maths easy to understand, even when it's seems impossible at first. He explains things in a simple way and uses relevant examples that help me learn faster. We do lots of practice questions, and he’s always patient when I need help. Since working with him, I’ve gotten much better and it’s become one of my favourite subjects at school”
