Tutor for various pupils for GCSE mathematics, and have helped undergraduates prepare for French examinations, particularly oral examinations. I have also taught undergraduate (university) laboratories in Civil Engineering, and taken examples classes in mathematics

I am flexible in the style for the student - this is to be discussed with the student on the first meeting.

GeorgeFrom Arya (5/5): My son has been having private Maths lessons with George since Yr9 & has just received his GCSE results. Let me just say, my son didn’t like Maths at first & there was only so much his dad & I (both coming from Maths backgrounds) could try & explain & teach without frustration coming in at full throttle! So when I found George, he was a real blessing. My son, a boy who started off hating Maths & not really understanding it & just scraping a pass, after 2 1/2 years of personal tutoring (face2face at first, followed by video during lockdown), George worked with my son to increase his confidence in Maths & actually make him enjoy the subject has been a real turn in an amazing way. So, my son ended up with a grade 8! And now he is even thinking about studying Maths further at A level :) This naturally had a knock on effect on the Physics result…. Another 8! George you have been a real blessing - thank you soooo much. I will be in touch for future help! Roxanna.
From Anita (/5): I unfortunately have not had a response to the email I sent 4 days ago or to the phone messages I sent yesterday. This is disappointing when I have paid for the details to be released. I understand there can be pressures but even a quick note to acknowledge receipt would have been appreciated.
Reply from: George: Hi Anita. I am very sorry about this. I unfortunately missed your message. I have only just picked this up and missed the message. George
