My son has made great progress with David. He has a wonderfully calm presence which creates a positive learning environment. Thank you, David.

We couldn’t be happier with our daughter’s 11+ tutor, Jamie. He is incredibly reliable, patient, and engaging, and has managed to make our 10-year-old genuinely excited about her sessions and motivated to study. He is thorough in his teaching and always provides regular, constructive feedback, which helps us understand her progress and where to focus next. He’s also very flexible and accommodating, which we really appreciate as busy parents. What stands out most is how well he connects with children. He knows exactly how to build their confidence and make learning enjoyable. He is also very knowledgeable and supportive when it comes to researching schools and exam preparation, which has been invaluable. His positive attitude and encouragement have made a huge difference to our daughter’s mindset and progress. We would highly recommend him to any family looking for a tutor who combines expertise with genuine care and enthusiasm.
Our son has enjoyed each and every English lesson with Aisha. We are very pleased with the progress our son has made under Aisha's guidance and just can't ask for a better tutor.
