Ian has really connected with my son and fingers crossed seems to be really helping him. My son is actually really enjoying his tutoring sessions, something I never thought I would say. I definitely would recommend Ian for Math's tuition
From Sheena
I cannot comment on how Ian’s teaching is but had arranged a lesson and then didn’t hear from him about a zoom link or login to access the lesson. I then called him after the expected start time and was informed he had another lesson and once we discussed further I don’t believe he is the the right fit for me.
From Leonardo
Ian seems to have the magic keys to unlock children's potential. He has been tutoring our son for quite a few weeks now and he gave to him the confidence and the interest in the subject he was lacking. Ian knows how to push intensity to the student's limits, maintaining the focus and the clarity needed to capitalize on it. He knows also how to prioritize material and tune his teaching as exams approach. A committed and great teacher!
From Julie
My daughter is finding her sessions with Ian really beneficial. Ian is patient and explains things in a way she can understand and her confidence with maths is improving week by week. I would recommend Ian as a tutor.
From Jo
Ian has just started to tutor my 15 year old son with GSCE Maths. Although it’s early days, my son has taken to Ian’s style of teaching and looks forward to the next session. Thanks Ian, looking forward to seeing the results :)
From Bonnie
I would recommend Ian. My son likes him and he has improved both in confidence and ability.
From RIchard
A positive start to maths tuition, our son is enjoying working with Ian and is gaining a better understanding of content being taught .
From STEVEN
Ian is a friendly person he makes you feel at ease, my son feels comfortable with Ian's teaching method and he is confident he can learn and become more confident. Ian assessed him and believes he can bring him up to the desired level to be confident of passing his Maths exam next year. We are very pleased with our decision to let Ian assist our son in his Maths and know we have made the right decision.
From Judith
Ian has a wonderful teaching style. He was able to put my child at ease from the first session. He gave my child the confidence to progress in a higher level class at school and only having had a few lessions from Ian was able to move up one and a half levels. As a parent Ian was easy to communicate with and gave me more information than I had been given from my own childs school. It has been a pleasure to have been in contact with Ian and highly recommend Ian to improve your chils maths skills. Thank you
From Mark
While I have not sat in on any of the lessons, I am more than happy from my son's feedback that Ian has a very affable manner and teaches in a way that is easy to learn. My son has gone from being on target for a C to an A in around 7 months.
Ian has turned up on all of the scheduled lessons and has been very accommodating to our own timetable. Highly recommended.
From David
Ian has been excellent with our son, he has given him a lot more confidence. He is reliable and arrives on time and has an excellent teaching method that our son found refreshing and supportive. After a few sessions his teachers commented on his improvement. Hopefully come August we will see all the hard work and effort pay dividends in his GCSE. I would highly recommend Ian as a Tutor
From Diane
Ian is a very good tutor and always on time, after 3 weeks my daughter is feeling a lot more confident and looks forward to Ian coming as he's made her feel at ease. He is very polite and explains things several ways so you have a better understanding and a style that suits you. He doesn't rush things through and will go at your pace. My daughter is really happy with Ian and already has a better understanding of what she needs to get through her GCSEs. Thank you Ian
From Jill
My son has just had the one lesson so far with Ian but can't believe how much he has learnt in that one session.Ian explains things really well .We think he is going to learn so much from having a tutor.Would definitely recommend Ian as a tutor .
From Deborah
Ian tutored my 15 year old son for a few months prior to his GCSE Maths in June this year. He built up an immediate rapport with Matthew, and was endlessly patient and encouraging. Matthew felt he'd learnt more in weekly sessions with Ian than he had in two years of his GCSE course at school.Thank you!
From Ian
We would highly recommend Ian as a maths Tutor. Ian tutored our daughter for GCSE maths. She lacked confidence in maths and Ian improved this no end. He has a nice manner and is friendly and relaxed. Ian was very patient and explained things in a way which was easy to understand and she found she could grasp maths topics she had previously struggled with. She also said that she felt comfortable in asking questions and this helped her learning. Our daughter, who would never have classed maths as her favourite subject, took on the lessons as a necessity but actually found that she enjoyed them and the confidence they gave her was brilliant. Ian was reliable and prompt and we wouldn’t hesitate to use him again if we needed a Maths Tutor. Thank you very much Ian.
From Chris
Ian really helped my son with his GCSE Maths study, his encouragement and support helped him to understand the subject with confidence. Ian is helpful, friendly and approachable with a real interest in seeing people understand Maths. More than happy to recommend him, Ian is a real asset. Many thanks.
Thanks Chris Tutoring Kal was a real pleasure and I wish you all well in the future
From Mary
I contacted Ian through First Tutors to provide some last minute help for my 17year old daughter who was struggling with revision for her imminent AS level exams. Ian appeared to be a pleasant and approachable person and was very flexible. He offered some tuition at our house and some at his own home to fit around the hours my daughter was available. My daughter found him easy to get on with and said that she benefitted from the tuition received; she felt more confident for her approaching exams. I would recommend him as a tutor; I just wish we had found him sooner.
From Hazel
Very pleased with my son's progress. He has already acheived the original target of improving his grade and has moved up into a higher set. Best of all is the improvement in self esteem, not only in maths but in other areas.
From Ruth
My daughter has had three lessons so far. She finds the lessons challenging but enjoyable. Ian is patient and explains things well and is always willing to go over anything she doesn't understand.
From Janie
