John has diligently and thoughtfully prepared my daughter for the 11+ exams. He has taken the time to understand my daughter, through his quiet, unassuming approach. Having determined her strengths and weaknesses, he used this information to build up her ability and (most importantly for me) confidence ahead of the exams. He has a bank of experience to draw on that has been invaluable. I would definitely recommend his services.

John started helping our son prepare for A Level Economics eight weeks ago. After a few lessons, my husband and I were pleased to see that he had already made progress. John managed to spot the gaps in our son’s knowledge in a very short space of time. John always prepared lessons in detail and his lessons were well-structured. He set our son homework for each lesson including essay-writing and marked everything carefully and promptly with useful tips. Our son really enjoyed having lessons with John. Today our son had his last Economics exam, Paper 3. What our son has learnt from John is not just knowledge and exam technique, he has become a confident and motivated learner with independent learning skills. As a teacher myself, I know some Economics teachers, but I decided to find the best teacher myself. I think I have done the right thing. We really appreciate John’s dedication and efficiency as a teacher and his hard work. We are lucky to have had such a brilliant teacher for our son. We would recommend John to anyone who is looking for an A Level Economics teacher.

Our daughter was appearing for 11+ exams this year for The Perse, Stephen Perse and the Leys. John joined us more than a year back and helped her gain confidence in Maths, English, VR and NVR. John's support was instrumental in identifying her strengths and weaknesses . John was also diligent in giving her appropriate practice materials and giving us feedback on a regular basis. We are delighted to have received offers from all 3 schools now. John is a very professional, kind and friendly teacher and we highly recommend him for 11+ tutoring.
From Muhunthan
John was fantastic with our young son who was studying for 11+ exams. Having been to a good state school but with no understanding of homework or tests, we worried a little when we decided to apply for both The Perse and The Stephen Perse in Cambridge for our son to try for secondary School. John came to us the summer before the exams and immediately put both us and our son at ease. He soon realised that whilst our son was strong in maths and non-verbal reasoning, he needed help with verbal reasoning and English. He concentrated his sessions in these areas, provided him (and us!) with homework and past papers and suggested books to read. Our son sailed through the exams and received offers from both schools. We are truly happy that we met John. He is a kind, decent and patient tutor and we would highly recommend him to others.

John is always well prepared. He explains things in depth so I understand the topics. It's also very helpful that he leaves extra work for me to practice in between lessons. Highly recommended.
