My Specialisms
I specialise in both entrance examinations (grammar school 11+, independent 11+ and 13+) and Law (A level, Degree, LLM, BPTC, LPC and PhD).

Hi, my name is Luke and I have a reputation as one of the most qualified and successful private tutors in the UK. Not only have I successfully prepared students from London and around the world to sit entrance exams at some of the most prestigious schools in the UK, but both my MA and PhD (Cand.) in education focused exclusively on private tuition and the 11+.

I specialise in 11+ and 13+ entrance examinations and my unique 'exam-focused' approach is reflected in the highest entrance examination success rates in the profession (48 out of my previous 50 students all won places at their first choice school, with 2 students receiving offers at their second choice), including successes at - Westminster, Winchester, Dulwich, Whitgift, City of London School, St Paul's etc.

Also, all of my students get automatic access to my private reserve of past examination papers available in the UK, including many of which are no longer available publicly.

I am also a highly experienced Law Tutor- my law cohort last year were majority first classes at LLB and Distinctions at LLM. I also tutor A level law, with my last student scoring 100% in their AS paper resits (a big improvement from the D scored prior!)

Please note that due to Corona Virus all my lessons are now provided online (which attract a 20% discount - so £80 an hour).

*Recent success stories for 7+ and 11+ - City of London School, Westminster, Westminster Cathedral Choir School, Highgate, Dulwich, Whitgift (state school student!), Winchester and many more!

Why am I so expensive?

Given the amazing educational opportunities my previous students have accessed by winning places at some of the most competitive grammar schools and independent schools in the UK, with the benefits often reaped many decades into the future, many parents consider my services to have been the best investment they have ever made.

While my competitive prices mean I may only be suitable for 10% of the people reading this, my typical client is someone who considers education and results too important to leave to chance and means you don't ever have to worry about the answer to the following: will the tutor be reliable? will the tutor cover the right content? will the tutor drop me a few months before the examinations due to their work commitments? will the tutor be competent? does the tutor have a proven track record? is the tutor qualified?

I am a full time 'super tutor' that has tutored all over the world and there is one thing all my students have in common - they achieved their goals!

This 100% success rate doesn't come easy. I hold students to account, I am meticulous but most of all I care.

When you are talking about the success of your child, or your own success - there is not a single thing more important in this world. It is imperative that you get the best tutor for the job with a proven track record of success - a person that is vested in your success and lives and breathes it!

In the past, I have tutored within families that have literally moved from one side of the planet to the other with the single aim of getting their child into a particular school or a student needing to pass an exam or final resit to save a whole degree (in one case, accounting for living costs and university fees, this final resit was worth over £100,000.) That is an enormous responsibility requiring a professional and dedicated tutor that is 100% switched on.

And yes - of course the student passed!

As for my results - you only have to look at my glowing testimonials! Everyone from members of Royal Families, and everyday professionals, to international icons and celebrities, all agree my results speak for themselves!

Tutoring Experience

Qualified Teacher and Head of Department. 10 Years teaching and private tutoring experience all over the world.

Tutoring Approach

I am very results focused and concentrate on examination preparation. This not only builds up an affinity to the question style and content - but also boosts student confidence come their examinations. I have found this approach is also the most time efficient and results based.
