Benjamin

Ben has been transformational for our son since he began working with him towards the end of Year 12, when we realised that he was having had little guidance from his school in terms of Oxbridge entrance. He has guided our son, giving him clear and challenging goals each week and has worked through a programme of reading in order to expand our son’s knowledge and understanding of history. He is now preparing him for a Cambridge interview, having coached him for the History assessment test. Our son holds Ben in high regard and has developed enormously over the last few months. We would have no hesitation in recommending Ben as a tutor.
Our son is now about to start studying History at Cambridge. We are certain that Ben was instrumental in enabling him to achieve this goal. He was the only student in his school to get an Oxbridge place. Ben advised him on his personal statement, coached him for his interview, prepared him for his A levels and finally worked with him preparing him for his first undergraduate year.

Benjamin is erudite, patient and experienced. My kid enjoys his lessons very much. Ben will also teach how to learn, it’s more important than what you are learning in some cases.

Thank you, Ben!

We had one history lesson with Benjamin. He was well prepared and knowledgable about the subject. He also gave us very detailed feedback about the lesson which was highly appreciated. Unfortunately he didn’t “click” with our son and they both found it challenging to work with each other so we mutually decided not to continue with the lessons. However we would recommend Benjamin as a teacher.

Benjamin has been helping my son over the past few months to prepare for History IGSCE. Although my son hasn’t had many lessons with Benjamin, there has been a significant improvement in his grades and essay writing. His confidence has been given a boost and he feels he is better equipped to take on the variety of topics that has been covered in school. My son has learned to be more precise in his writing, expanded his vocabulary and improved his ability to identify evidence relevant to the questions being answered. Benjamin is patient, meticulous and knowledgeable in the areas in which my son has needed help. I would not hesitate to recommend Benjamin.

Ben is a great teacher. He is so reliable and responsible. My son is only starting work with him for a few weeks but I can see the progress already,
