What families say

  • Emily's professionalism, enthusiasm and maturity as a tutor really shined through when she tutored me on interview skills and helped me secure an offer to read Medicine at the University of Cambridge. I could see myself improving in each session we had. Emily is great at explaining things effectively and patiently.

    Fiona · Cambridge Medicine Offer Holder

  • Emily is a great tutor! She did a mock interview with me when I was preparing for my Cambridge Medicine interview and I am so grateful for her help as I went on to receive an offer. She made the supervision/tutorial style interview very interactive and proposed a wide variety of questions to me and concluded the session with thorough and useful feedback. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a tutor as not only is she an amazing tutor, but is also a very kind and helpful person 🙂

    Hilary · Cambridge Medicine Offer Holder

  • Leo tutored me for my GCSE Mock examinations, and drastically improved my science grades from 8-7-7 to 9-8-9! I found it very helpful and engaging, and would definitely recommend to those hoping to improve their grades!

    Lennard · Oxford Physics Offer Holder

  • Hi Leo! Just wanted to let you know that I got the offer for Physics at Oxford! Thanks so much for all your help, it really helped me alot because I've never been in academic interviews before. All the best to you for whatever it is you are doing now, and once again thanks a bunch!

    Siau · Oxford Physics Offer Holder

  • My son is very lucky to have the opportunity to learn from such an excellent senior. I am very grateful for Ben's patience in teaching him over the past year. I hope my son keeps in touch with Ben, follows his example, and studies hard so he has the chance to study in the UK himself.

    Jessie · Parent

  • Thank you to Ben for all his support with my son. He's really benefitted from the sessions, and his Chemistry has improved so much over the year.

    Jackie · Parent

  • Will's engaging, high-level knowledge of historiography challenged me to think on my feet. I also found his annotation of my personal statement incredibly useful, helping me connect synoptic links and stretch my thinking.

    Nikki · Cambridge History Offer Holder

  • I found it really useful to be able to do essay plans with Will and find the knowledge beforehand, as it helped with my essay technique whilst also being effective revision.

    Isla · A-Level History Student

  • Will's feedback on my exam and essay technique was really helpful and allowed me to focus on key points for improvement. I also found the informative sections on context very useful to use in my exams!

    Henry · GCSE English Student

  • Will was amazing and has given my son even more confidence in his abilities. Money well spent — he was the perfect tutor for him.

    Amanda · Parent of a Year 11 Pupil

  • Will was brilliant. My daughter really enjoyed her time with him, and her reading and spelling has come on so much, which has been recognised by school.

    Lydia · Parent of a Year 4 Pupil

  • My son has really enjoyed his sessions with Will, and his teacher let us know at parents' evening just before Easter how much she can see his confidence in class has grown since starting them 👍🏻

    Katie · Parent of a Year 4 Pupil

  • Owen gave very good support to my son before his French A-Level; his lessons were focussed and useful. He did great mock sessions for his oral and really helped him feel super prepared and confident. I would definitely recommend him.

    Debbie K · Parent of an A-Level French Student

  • Owen has been an exceptional tutor for German A-Level for my daughter. He has expected and demonstrated high standards in terms of work undertaken. He has a very thorough knowledge of not just the subject but also the curriculum, which is so vital in a tutor. He has, outside of tutoring hours, ensured that work is marked and has been available for queries. I would recommend Owen completely and without hesitation for his dedication, knowledge, teaching skills and high standards.

    George R · Parent of an A-Level German Student

  • Owen has been a fantastic German A-Level tutor for my daughter. His feedback during the sessions was precise and constructive and he has been generous with his time. Owen's lessons have been both valuable and enjoyable and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced and committed tutor.

    Joseph M · Parent of an A-Level German Student

  • Abe helped me prepare for STEP and I honestly couldn't recommend him enough. He was really good at breaking down difficult problems and helping me understand how to actually approach STEP questions rather than just memorising methods. The sessions made me much more confident with harder problems, and with his help I ended up getting an 11 in STEP. He's patient, easy to work with, and genuinely knows his stuff.

    Student · STEP Candidate

  • We really love the Scolari platform. It makes it so easy to keep track of how the lessons are managed, and our child is much more engaged with the lessons.
