What parents and students say

Average rating: 4.7 stars from 6 reviews • 100% would use again

Leif tutored my daughter for sixth form entry to several London schools. We have lived outside the UK for a few years, so my daughter needed insight into how to approach the personal statement part of the schools application process, and in understanding what to expect during the exams. Leif provided practical advice and moral support, and in just two sessions, boosted my daughter's knowledge and confidence. She has since been offered places at all the schools she applied for. I'd highly recommend Leif to anyone looking for expert knowledge and familiarity with the competitive London school entry process.

Leif is a very experienced, knowledgeable and encouraging tutor. He has helped our 17-year-old daughter on her A-level History. Leif is professional and quickly identified the gap where my daughter needed help. My daughter has not only acquired the subject knowledge and skills but also been motivated to be passionate about the subject. After a few lessons with Leif, my daughter started to invite her classmates to form a group of study buddies. They worked hard and revised seriously for school tests or exams. I am so glad about my daughter's progress and would like to express my sincere gratitude to Leif's dedication and professionalism.
