Alan

My son was lacking in confidence about some aspects of the Further Maths A level curriculum. Additionally, he was struggling with question interpretation. His sessions with Alan have resulted in a significant improvement in his understanding, exam technique and overall confidence. My son's belief in his own ability has increased. Alan has definitely helped my son unlock something re his exam potential, when previously he felt he was stuck at a lower level of performance.

Alan is a fantastic tutor. His lessons are engaging, well thought through and always relevant. He explains concepts in a way that makes sense, he has been a great sounding board when trying to understand complex topics and his teaching is always relevant. Highly recommend and will use again.

Alan did an amazing job my son had taken a entrance exam for Shrewsbury School & achieved just 28% in the maths paper & required help revising effectively for a re-sit. Alan taught him for a period of c.10 days & as a result my son achieved 64% in the re-sit & has been offered a place at Shrewsbury. I am hugely grateful for Alan's help.

We found Alan very competent, flexible, understanding and quick to get back to us in order to tailor help to our son’s needs.

Alan was very helpful in areas our daughter needed work on. I feel very fortunate we connected and now just awaiting for August to come to get final marks.

Alan has been a great help and a pleasure to work with. He set regular homework after each lesson and was good at recognizing my daughter's weaknesses and gaps in knowledge. He was very professional and easy to contact. My daughter found the lessons enjoyable and useful. The use of OneNote was great, she could go back and see all the notes and practice papers in one place and Alan provided diverse resources. She was able to get accepted into her school of choice and now also has a better foundation in Mathematics. We are very happy with Alan and would definitely recommend him to others.

Alan has been tutoring my Year 8 son, online, in Maths and Physics since August 2019. The initial aim was to support his Maths learning at a high performing independent school but a short time into the sessions it became clear Alan could also support my son in physics. Alan has been quick and thorough at identifying and addressing my son's weaknesses and gaps in his understanding. He pre-planned and led the sessions but equally responded to my son's requests to go over certain topics as needed. He set a small amount of weekly homework and regularly suggested additional resources. My son has benefited enormously from his time with Alan, most notably excelling in Physics and making a significant improvement in Maths. Alan has been very flexible with my son's busy school schedule and has always been online at the scheduled time. He is professional, kind and patient. We highly recommend Alan for Maths or Physics tutoring in a secondary setting.

Alan has tutored our daughter for only five sessions, and during that short time she was able to gain mastery and confidence in the subject. She has found Alan's tutoring to be clear and methodical. His use of the webinar link has been most helpful. We couldn't be happier and only wish we had started sooner.

Alan has been a very helpful tool for Pedro to progress in his studies throughout his IB course. He helps him to consolidate knowledge by going through the necessary theory and practising with a series of past paper questions. Overall, Pedro is very satisfied with the tutoring and with Alan's help he is on track to obtain the highest marks in the IB Physics and Math HL courses.

Alan is very knowledgeable in his subject which was Higher Level IB Maths and my son found his knowledge to have great depth. He was excellent at conveying and explaining the Maths and we were very happy with his assistance.

Alan's extensive knowledge of mathematics was the most significant and useful attribute for overcoming difficult questions. This helped with questions which required a different line of thinking to the conventional and easier questions. Alan was very flexible with times we could do the lesson at.

Alan has tutored my son for an IB Maths standard level Internal Assessment. He has taught him so much in a short time and has made a tremendous difference to his confidence. We are grateful to him and would recommend him without hesitation.
