From Polly (5/5): (GCSE Maths) Kevin spent two 2-hour sessions with my daughter before her first GCSE maths module (we had left it a bit late!), which definitely helped her feel better prepared for the exam. I will use him again if she needs help once she's got into the next topic and would certainly recommend him.

From Jack (5/5): (A-Level Maths) Enjoying my tuition with Kevin, very straightforward and easy to understand. We have managed to get through a lot of the syllabus very quickly and am hoping to get good results for my AS and A2 Maths exams because of these sessions.

From Lee (5/5): (GCSE Maths) Kevin - Thank you for your prompt reply - I really look forward to meeting you and studying under your guidance - Cheers Lee

From Isabelle (5/5): (GCSE Maths) No doubt about it I can see a massive improvement in my Maths, thanks to Kevin. Before his help I was recieving marks, in the practice papers I was doing, that were C grade standard, if I was lucky B, however after having a number of sessions with Kevin I have not recieved any grade lower than an A! :) Thats amzing for me! I actually have my Maths GCSE tomorrow and im feeling very confident (and am actually quite excited) thanks to Kevin's clear explanation of topics and patient approach which has helped me to understand everything. I am very thankful, and highly reccomend Kevin as a Maths tutor.

From Rosie (5/5): (A-Level Maths) Very nice man and very amenable - very calm and measured and explained things clearly - would recommend without hesitation

From Elle (5/5): (A-Level Maths) I am a mature student doing a PhD and Kevin is teaching me some elements of GCSE and A level probability and statistics. Kevin presents the subject matter in a clear and easy to understand format that makes even complex ideas or calculations appear easy to handle and grasp. He is a very personable individual with a nice manner and I am very happy to recommend him.

From William (5/5): (A-Level Maths) Thank you Kevin for moving Wills from being unsure and apprehensive about his additional maths exam to being confident and up for the challenge ! Will says what really worked for him was that you didn't just tell him how to do the questions, you ensured that he understood the theory so that he could confidently apply it to any question he was faced with on an exam paper. Fingers crossed for August !

From Colin (5/5): (GCSE Maths) Kevin helped our son achieve a pass on his resit first time. He is an excellent tutor and has a very practical and understanding attitude. His skill in developing the confidence needed to tackle the concepts and exams is superb and genuinely works at a level and pace that made a huge difference!!! Thanks so much Kevin - you did a great job.

From Sarah (5/5): (GCSE Maths) Kevin is reliable, my daughter is much more confident and has shown a marked improvement in her grades.
