Garrie's Feedback

Unreliable, overrated.

Very helpful and explains material in detail

I booked Garrie for firstly a one off session - then went on to book a block of 5 sessions for my son leading up to his higher maths exam.
The entire process was extremely easy to navigate.
Its been an eye opener for my son to recieve one to one teaching and hes found it incredibly useful - having no distractions and concentrating on exactly the what hed been struggling with.
Garrie has been professional throughout the whole process - and always communicated easily.
Our last session - the day before the exam was an online meeting - due to covid - and my son expressed that it was just as good - even when hed been a bit hesitant.
Thanks Garrie - just results now!

He is a great teacher. My son is very confident now. Thanks Garrie for your hard work and helping him.

Very knowledgeable on what I need to know. Efficient and effective.

My daughter only had 2 lessons as they were online… Face to face lessons suit her better.

Garrie is excellent he teaches my son Engineering Mathematics and my son says he is a miracle!

Garrie was great with my son. Gave him lots of help and confidence. Will definitely use him again if he comes across areas of maths and engineering he is finding difficult.

Garrie has been helping me with my Mathematics for Engineering units over the last year, and has been absolutely excellent. For example, Maths 5 is the highest level Maths unit currently covered at college level in any college in the whole country. I scored 100% in my assessment, this would never have happened without Garrie's help.
I will be progressing to year 3 of the B.Eng. Electrical Engineering degree come September, and have full confidence in my ability to complete the course knowing I have Garrie's assistance with the electrical theory units.
I would thoroughly recommend Garrie to anyone, his knowledge and understanding, and ability to convey information in an easy to understand and relatable way is tremendous.

Thank you Garrie you are an excellent tutor. Professional, calm and easy to talk to, you made my son feel much more confident about his ability in Maths. You really helped him with some last minute revision for Higher Maths and we are delighted that he will now pass this higher.

We would highly recommend Garrie as a tutor, thanks again Garrie.

I can’t recommend Garrie enough! My son feels a lot more confident going into his s5 maths assessments. Garrie has explained things in a new way so that my son understand topics that previously confused him. Thank you for being awesome!

I would highly recommened Garrie for Maths And physics.He is reliable and really an excellent teacher.

Enthusiatic. Patient. Flexible.

My son's confidence with the subject grows with every session.

He knows what I want to do, and allows me to focus on my College work and go through things I struggle with.

Early days but my son has shown more confidence already.

Garrie has been supporting my daughter for a number of weeks now and her confidence in maths has grown massively already. Always very well prepared for each session and helps go over homework and revision topics. Worth every penny. Thanks Garrie.

Really good attention to what the student needs & also to ensure the student understands what is being covered in the sessions.

Garrie is an excellent tutor and I would highly recommend him without a doubt. I am very pleased with how much he was able to help me with Dynamics despite it being a last minute request.

Garrie has had a fantastic impact on my sons Physics and Maths ability and has seen his school work improve so much that his teachers are now predicting As instead of Bs in his higher score.
Garrie was also very time accommodating with my son and when times were arranged Garrie always was prompt.
An excellent choice of tutor for any pupil

My son thought Garrie was very good and said a lot of the things they covered came up in the test.
Thanks for your help and just looking forward to our results now.

Garrie is fantastic, my son has come on so much. Thanks Garrie

I started with Garrie around October last year and with his help and expertise, I have successfully passed all my first-semester coursework with brilliant marks.

Garrie is a superb tutor who understands the individual needs of his students and adapts his teaching style to suit. With a wealth of knowledge and a dedicated approach to making learning fun, I feel more confident than ever to tackle the challenges going forward in my University degree.

Gary has a good rapport with my son and he is engaging and dedicated.
And reliable!

Garrie is down to earth and easy to talk to. Great teacher, he got me through my 1st year physics resit. Would highly recommend !!

Very pleased with the help from Garrie - he helped get my daughter through her Electronics resit.

I was very lucky to find someone with such expertise as Garrie to help our grandson when he was in difficulties with his aeronautical engineering degree. His lessons have proved to be invaluable in my grandson's preparations to resit some of his units as he has increased his knowledge and helped him target his revision as well as elucidate areas he was finding difficult, showing him different methods to those taught at his university. Indeed we would have liked more lessons if Garrie had been able to fit them in to his busy schedule. We hope he will continue to be available for follow up lessons during the rest of Luke's course.

My daughter Laura was struggling to understanding some of the concepts and theories covered in Higher Physics. But thanks to Garrie's well structured input, patience and guidance she secured "B" at Higher. Whats more, she likes the subject so much now that she's taking it at Advanced Higher level and looks forward to getting more valuable support from Garrie.

I Highly recommend Garrie 100% . Garrie is so extremely qualified and reliable and friendly. Thank You

Garrie is a genius in maths and physics his teaching made me understand the subjects as best as I could. I got my place in uni afternoon being out of studies for a while and couldn’t have asked for a better tutor. Thanks for your help garrie

Garrie has been great for my son, and has brought him from a lowly 30%, up to a standard where he thinks he will pass his resits. Garrie has been extremely flexible, and was at our house the morning after being contacted. Very impressed!

Garrie has proved to be an excellent choice

Garrie tutored my son for first year university maths. He was very helpful and extremely flexible when it came to arranging classes, both to fit in with my son’s timetable and around exam time. I would definitely recommend Garrie to anyone looking for a maths tutor.

Thanks for all the help that you gave Chloe. Very confident in maths now, predicting that she should get an A in her higher exams.

Garrie s tutoring has helped my son to understand Maths ,it has enabled him to gain in confidence for his Highers. We would highly recommend his services
Thank-you

Garrie has a vast knowledge of his subjects and is always very helpful and clear on instructions- would absolutely recommend Garrie

Hi all,

Our daughter has had tuition for several weeks and has grown in confidence with the level of detail and input from Garrie. For some reason he explains things a little better than the school teacher does and relates more easier to Our daughter. She is still receiving tuition for three subjects and is progressing well and with confidence, wish we had used Garrie during S4/5 previously. online tutoring is superb an di wasnt bothered by it as i had done my degree through this method also.

Thanks Garrie Chelsea loves it.

Our daughter enjoys

We are very happy with Garrie , he has the knowledge of his subjects and boys are well pleased with him.

I find Garrie very helpful in my studies.

Garrie has provided me with tuition that has been and continues to be extremely helpful in the completion of my degree. The tuition is tailored to specific areas as required. He is also accommodating where changes to the scheduled sessions may be required.

Garrie provided the highest quality teaching which in turn bolstered my sons confidence ahead of Higher exams (Maths, Physics & Computing Science).
He is reliable, flexible and naturally relates well to young people. Many thanks…

Garrie is very organised and had lots of resources and past papers which helped my daughter with her physics. He has a good working knowledge of the higher physics syllabus and was able to supplement her school lessons with extra teaching. He was always punctual and was able to accommodation her with extra sessions as the exam approached.

I didn't have Garrie for long however improvements have been made in my knowledge of Physics which helped in the nearing of my exam. Would strongly recommend for anyone struggling with Physics.

Really helpful in multiple subjects for my university classes. Really helped prepare me and explained everything clearly!

I have been working with Garrie for around three months now and my confidence in the subject has greatly increased. Garrie is a great guy to work with and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Excellent tutor. Garrie is tutoring me in MATLAB for my Engineering degree - he is extremely knowledgeable and highly proficient, and I could not recommend him enough. He is very helpful, flexible with times, able to answer any questions and prepares for sessions thoroughly so that every session is efficient and productive. He is also very friendly which makes sessions enjoyable!

Has helped me so much with Advanced Higher Maths and Higher Physics and I definitely would recommend to anyone who wants to improve in these subjects! Very patient and has lots of good tips to help for exams :)

I contacted Garrie during the summer to brush up on my maths leading up to starting second year of university. Garrie has helped me through a variety of university level mathematics including double integration, ordinary differential equations, systems of ordinary differential equations and laplace transforms among others. He has helped instil confidence in me leading up to my january exams and is very flexible allowing me to juggle part time university and work commitments well. I would highly recommend Garrie to anybody.

My daughter has had a good few lessons with Garrie and is really enjoying the not only the content but the delivery of the lessons also.

Very helpful and knowledgeable. Great way of teaching

Excellent help! Always prepared and would always check up on anything he wasn't sure of at the time. Would definitely recommend.

Mr Garrie is tutoring my son and provides help for his higher Physics exam this year. He is very knowledgable on the subject and with ease explains complex questions. On top of that he will teach you unseen tricks with the calculator and various other shortcuts, for example with equations, which can save loads of valuable time on the actual exam. Just by walking in the room he gave a beam of hope that even for a limited time you can prepare and be successful at the exam. Fabulous, thank you!

I struggled to find a tutor for eng maths at university. Luckily I managed to find garrie who was an excellent help and managed to help me with all of the topics I struggled with. I now have much better understanding of the subject. I would recommend garrie above all.

Garrie was great. Really patient and easy-going.

Excellent tuition, my 17 year old son has already been able to improve his understanding of key area's of Advanced Higher Maths which previously he struggled to comprehend. He particularly likes Garries style of tutoring and how he is helped to interpret what is being asked in a question and how to maximise marks.

I contacted Garrie as I needed a refresher in the basics of mathematics and in a very short space of time.
He explained everything in a clear, concise manner and was extremely patient. I also felt my time was utilized well as he was efficient in working through the different topics,
Would highly recommend.

Miss.Leith

Garrie has communicated well with us at ever step of the way.
He arrived on time and has an easy friendly manner.
He explains things to our son in a easily understandable way.
I have every confidence my son will gain an excellent pass at higher physics

Thank you Garrie for all your help! Ypu replied promptly and came all the way to our house the first night. Daniel found the tuition very helpful. All we need now is to hear that he passed his exam! We'll let you know.

Great help during my summer school. Helped me to gain an understanding of the different new topics I was studying. Clear, patient and good at explaining different problems.

Although we do not yet have results from her exam, my daughter was very pleased with the tuition from Garry. Garry's teaching style and manner, and level of command of the subject, put her at ease and gave her confidence.

Garrie has been a great help in getting me up to speed with Advanced Higher level maths. He has been very patient and has great knowledge of the subject, breaking it down to an understandable level for someone to learn. As someone who is not confident with their mathematics I would highly recommend Garrie as a tutor. He has helped me immensely.

Garrie has a very structural (I would say academical) approach. That way you can see your target and you know when you hit it.
He is very precise. He's got everything planned in advance and everything gets covered at the end of the lesson.
He sets out an example by solving all the tasks along with the student and then leaves the notes afterward. And that is Excellent!
His explanations are simple and clear.

Thank you Garrie.

Thank you Garrie for the help you have provided to date. Lindsay has gained so much confidence in the weeks you have been visiting and no longer dreads the thought of her Higher Maths exam.! She enjoys your teaching methods and finds you very approachable .She has really benefited from the one to one and we are happy that you are now also assisting her with her Physics Higher work.
To anyone that is thinking of some private tuition i would say it is money well spent to see your child's confidence increase in such a way.
Thanks again Garrie and see you again at the weekend

Gary provided very valuable support and tuition to my son who sat his Higher Physics exam in May 2013. My son successfully passed his exam, and gained a grade C in what was a very difficult exam. I would have no hesitation in recommending Garrie as a tutor

Garrie has been a huge help to my son. His approach was friendly and encouraging. He kept my son on track , giving homework on a regular basis and helping with revision. I would recommend Garrie without any hesitation.

Garrie was great. Turned up on time every time. Came prepared and knows his Physics. My sons felt comfortable with him and enjoyed his teaching style.Highly recommended. Thanks Garrie

Garrie has not been tutoring me for long, but I am finding Garrie to be extremely reliable, very good at responding to my questions and highly professional in his approach to aiding me through my education.

Studying at University level, I at times require effective fast replies to questions regarding my education material.
Garrie has responded very quickly, and presented me with very understandable material that makes what can be difficult questions, considerably easier to answer.

Garrie is very easy to communicate with, and and he goes to great lengths to keep up communication with me to ensure my needs and requirements are met. This I am sure anyone understands is of utmost importance for succeeding.

As a student on an educational quest, I find Garrie to be of great value to me, and I do not hesitate in recommending him as a tutor to anyone that may require his services.

Great. Garrie has been a real help for my son in Advanced Higher Maths

Garrie,
Thank you very much for your help - my son is more confident about the subject now and is making good progress.

Best regards,

Christine Wallace

Garrie has immediately made a difference to our son's confidence and has quickly focussed on what he needs to concentrate on. His teaching style is clear and focussed and I am sure it will help our son do himself credit in his forthcoming Highers. I would certainly recommend Garrie as a Physics tutor.

Garrie has great communication skills and teaching methods. He arrives on time, is very well organised and prepared for each session. My son feels comfortable and at ease with Garrie. Each session has been a huge success so far and I have no doubt that with Garrie's help my son can achieve his higher maths and therefore I have no hesitation in recommending Garrie as a tutor.

He is very helpful

Thanks for your prompt response. We look forward to seeing you on 3 October.

I have found garrie to be very professional and friendly. His ability to be flexible with times has also been of great help to me. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for mathematical tutoring.

Son got his results today, 2 A's!

Very pleased with tutor, had 4 x 2 hour session, tutor provided solutions to problems ina simple fashion, and
made things understandable. He provided a lot of additional materials.

I used Garrie for a couple of months before my son's Maths Standard Credit exam. He immediatey established a rapport with Charlie and they got on very well… Charrlie was sruggling when he met Garrie but by the time he went into his exam he was feeling a lot more confident. We don't have the result yet but whatever they are I will continue to use Garrie as I coild see how my son had improved in the time they worked together. I would have no hesitation in recommending Garrie to others.
