Ian has a very calm and methodical approach to tutoring and this suited our son perfectly. He strikes the perfect balance between guiding the student through the subject content alongside sharing his expertise in exam technique. Ian is extremely accommodating and flexible - we can't thank him enough for the support he has provided our son and the impact it had on his confidence in Physics.
From Aisha
Great tutor, very helpful for examp preparations
From Noah
Ian has been a great support to my son doing year 13 Physics. He has found that Ian explains topics clearly and they have good discussions to help embed the learning.
From LeighAnne
Brilliant tutor took my son from hating physics to being his favourite subject and to top it off getting an A. Highly recommend. Many thanks Ian
From Kathleen
Ian has helped my son with A level Physics over the last few weeks. He clearly explains problems and has aided my son's understanding in an enjoyable way. He told me that he wished all teachers were like Ian!
From Monique
My 16 year old daughter finds Ian's style and approach engaging and stimulating, explaining his subject with clarity, simplicity and a with touch of humour. His insight into exam technique has been invaluable and his time with Sian has shown great benefits. Thank you!
From Sarah
Imogen had come back with positive feedback and is asking for further sessions as she felt the session was extremely useful
From Nigel
Ian spent 4 hours with our son over Christmas. He had found the jump from GCSE to A Level significant and Ian was able to give him some confidence as well as going over work that he had not properly understood during the first term of Lower Sixth. So our son now goes back to school, in the New Year, well prepared and feeling comfortable that he is on top of matters.
From Ellie
Ian has been an amazing tutor and managed to make a level physics enjoyable - I looked forward to every lesson. He really helped my understanding of physics as well as my exam technique. Brilliant tutor. 5/5 is not enough!!! Excellent tutor.
From Claudine
William is finding your lessons really useful. Learning how to dissect each question and work out what the examiners are looking for is an essential skill and does not always come easily to everybody.
From Sally
Found Ian to be very professional and very approachable. Unfortunately my son didn't have the application to continue going despite liking Ian very much and finding the one session he had with him useful. Ian approached the subject from a practical point of view, showing him how best to tackle exam questions to get the most marks. I have no doubt that my son would have benefitted from Ian's tuition and would certainly recommend him.
From Belinda
Sorry we were not able to use your help sooner for A level physics retakes, as it has been excellent and very helpful for my son's exam technique.
From Julia
Ian has been a great help so far. My daughter understands subjects in Physics she was previously struggling with and his exstensive knowledge of the exam questions and marking will also prove very useful. He is flexible with lesson times, prompt and friendly and explains things in a clear way she understands. We would recommend Ian to other students with hesitation.
From Susan
Tom finding lessons very helpful. Excellent way of explaining things helping Tom to remember them.
From Angus
Angus has made an excellent start with you and your explanation of what is required in the exam is just what is needed. Thank you
From Caroline
Ian has a very good style and has really been able to get on my 15 year old son's wavelength. He certainly knows his stuff but also has a sense of humour.
From Julie
A huge thanks for all the help and confidence you have given Jacob - I will definitely recommend you!

Once again Thank you for your help. Regards Mum Tika
From Daniel
From Mike
This is the first time I have engaged a tutor and I truly feel that we have struck gold first time. Ian is punctual, knowledgeable, responds quickly and clearly to communication, is flexible in his availability, puts my daughter at ease and teaches the subject in a way that can only help to improve the resulting mark this summer! Thank you.
From Geeta
Thank you for your support and guidance to my daughter, she has improved her knowledge and understanding in science particularly in physics. Her preparation for the final GCSE exam is going very well and she has much improved confidence in herself and expecting to do well in her GCSE. Thank you very much for your wonderful help and support.
Regards,
From Myra
So far Joe has been very happy with your tuition and finds one to one learning very beneficial. He finds you easy to talk to and helpful in clarifying certain areas of physics with which he needs help.
From Matthew
Very calm, very measured. Provides an excellent environment and gets my son thinking through the issues, not just giving him the answers. He's really getting him thinking about the why as well as the what so my son is far more on aligned to A Level thinking.
From Jane
Thank you for accepting George, it is such a comfort to know that he has access to such support and that he will hopefully be able to reach his true potential, what ever that might be. I feel access to one to one teaching at this level will make a huge difference. Jane
