Discovering Mr. Leigh was a turning point for Dominic’s understanding of math. Not only did he provide the confidence Dominic had been lacking, but he was also patient, working at a pace that suited Dominic’s needs. At the start of his final GCSE year, Dominic was on track for a D at best, but thanks to Mr. Leigh’s support, he achieved a B in his actual exam. We are incredibly grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others.
Thank you Simon! I'm delighted to have helped Dominic lift his grade from a D to a B and also to have helped develop his general confidence with math.
From Rachel
Leigh tutored my son in the months running up to his iGCSE maths exam this summer, and was brilliant. His B grade is testimony to the solid revision and confidence he gave my son. Leigh was interactive and listened well to what my son felt were his weaker areas - did not 'talk down' to him in any way. He made sure my son felt confident in his weaker areas and my son looked forward to their online tutorials together. Highly recommended.
Thank you Rachel for taking the time to clarify what impressed you.
It was a pleasure building his confidence with the full syllabus and helping him get that higher grade!
From Nicolas
Hi Leigh, Thanks you so much for helping my son for his GCSE. The results were above expectations as he scored a 6. It was a long journey from the predicted 4 based on his mocks. Outstanding help! Nic
Thanks Nicolas! I'm delighted to have helped your son really grow and succeed with his maths GCSE.
From Pooja
Leigh is an excellent tutor. Our son has only had three lessons so far and is already feeling so much more confident. We are so pleased that Leigh is teaching our son.
Thank you Pooja. Your son is a real delight to work with, and it's a privilege to be involved in developing his skills and confidence.
From Jo
Leigh is the most amazing maths teacher my son has ever had, he is so patient and explains things so simply. My son has learnt so much and really looks forward to his lessons.
Thanks Jo! I really look forward to our weekly sessions. It's great to see your son's confidence growing week by week, mastering areas he previously found impossible to grasp in a classroom setting.

Thanks Zaheeda
From Ola
Leigh recently started tutoring my daughter in Mathematics and I have to say I was highly impressed from the beginning. Immediately I read his detailed and informative response to my first email to him, I knew I wanted him to tutor my daughter at all cost.
Leigh understood the specific requirements I had for my daughter and swiftly created a robust and structured learning programme to help my daughter in passing GCSE maths. I was particularly impressed with Leigh’s professionalism and excellent breadth of knowledge of tutoring students on the same level and need.
My daughter’s first impression after her trial lesson was excellent. She said ‘mum, Leigh is so smart and the way he teaches is amazing because I understand easily. He is definitely better than my school teacher!’
Thank you Leigh, grateful for your continued support and tutoring to help her achieve her true potential in GCSE.
Thank you Ola, I really appreciate you taking the time to clarify what you've been impressed with so far.
It's a pleasure working with your daughter and helping her to understand the concepts necessary to succeed in GCSE.
I look forward to continuing to help her grow in confidence and ability.
From Arabella
On the way home from his last lesson my son, who hates maths, unprompted said ‘Leigh is a godsend, I’m so glad we have found him. That was really fun and the lesson felt like it only lasted 5 minutes’. Leigh’s careful personalised approach seems to be breaking through the fog and my son is already gaining confidence and actively looks forward to lessons. A great relief for all of us. Thank you Leigh.
Thank you Arabella, your feedback has almost brought me to tears! It's a real blessing to know how much my tuition has already affected your son's attitude toward maths and, as a consequence, how much this is appreciated by his parents. It really is a pleasure working with your son and making that "fog" clear!
From Sharon
Really pleased we found Leigh. Leigh has provided online maths tuition for my daughter for the last few months and has helped her to pass her 11+ exam. Leigh is patient, understanding and flexible. I highly recommend Leigh to any parent or student needing a help or a boost with their (child’s) maths.
Thanks for your kind words, Sharon. It's been delightful tutoring your daughter online, and I'm really pleased she performed so well in her 11+ exam.
From yvonne
We found Leigh very enthusiastic and friendly with good time keeping for starting and finishing lessons. Leigh managed to help my 15 year old son understand a topic he had struggled with previously, called Surds. He also managed to help my younger son with a three step formula for doing multiplication without memorizing answers. We have found Leigh a pleasure to work online with Maths tutoring. Boys looking forward to their next lesson.
Thanks for the feedback, Yvonne. It's been wonderful working with both of your sons, as they're very enthusiastic about their learning and engage with the exercises really well. I'm looking forward to helping them succeed!
From Vicky
Sam has had 3 lessons so far and has found it very useful. He is able to say a bit about what he has been learning (which is a result for us!) and remembering helpful tips/mnemonics e.g. to remind him of quadratic equation steps. Leigh has been very good giving feedback on what he is covering via email, his teaching strategy (e.g. covering sam's weak areas and also focussing on prep for Exmas exams) including Sam's attitude.
Thanks for your review. Sam is responding very well to the program and its great that you're taking an active interest in his development. The memory techniques are especially helpful for him because, like other students his age, there is so much content to retain during this crucial exam year.
From irena
Leigh prepares my 15 yo son for his GCSE maths exam. We are very happy with the way Leigh structures his lessons in order to help my son to achieve higher results. Leigh explains things very thoroughly and is very patient. He has vast resources incl past exam papers to help my son to improve his performance. Leigh is also punctual, knowledgeable about GCSE curriculum and exam techniques and very well prepared for the lessons.
We are very happy for Leigh and can highly recommend him as a maths tutor.
Thank you for your feedback Irena. It is a pleasure coaching your son. He engages fully with the lessons and has responded extremely well to the development program.
From Emily
Both my sons 11 & 15 are being taught by Leigh, I really can not recommend him enough! He has such great ways of teaching that really help simplify Maths. He will also go above and beyond to find a way that helps different needs. Lovely guy and just so so helpful.
Thank you Emily for your kind words, and for choosing me to support your boys with their learning. I look forward to seeing them continue to develop over time and building their confidence and maths skills.
From Sean
Our daughter was having difficulty with Maths, predominantly it would seem due to the style of teaching in her class as Leigh has been able to help her understand the areas she had concerns within the first lesson. She has been very pleased with how it is going and we are already seeing an improvement in her results at school. Leigh is very professional in his approach and clearly enjoys his subject. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Thank you for your review. Your daughter engages really well with the tuition and is a delight to teach. It's great to see her confidence and ability begin to grow already, and I'm delighted to be involved in helping her succeed in this important area.
From Juliet
I took my daughter for her first session with leigh and he was brilliant with her. She has autism and is highly anxious and nervois but he really put her at ease and she came out of the session feeling really positive and motivated. I would recommend leigh without hesitation.
Thanks for your encouraging feedback Juliet. I'm delighted your daughter was able to engage so well and that she's already feeling positive and motivated about continuing with my support. I'm genuinely looking forward to helping her grow in confidence and ability, ready to pass her maths GCSE with flying colours!
From Richard
Leigh has been incredibly helpful to our daughter in GCSE maths year. She has responded very well to Leigh's approach and he is definitely making a significant difference. Thank you Leigh!
Thank you Richard for your feedback. It's been a real pleasure to help your daughter improve in confidence and ability.
From Santiago
Leigh is an excellent Teacher and very professional. Both my children aged 12 and 14 go to Leigh once a week for an hour Maths lesson each. Both of their grades and reports from school have improved dramatically and I can thoroughly recommend Leigh.
Thank you for your kind feedback. It's a real pleasure working with them and helping them grow their skills and confidence. I'm also delighted it's making such a difference to their school grades and reports.
From Morag
I took my daughter aged 13 to Leigh for the first time today for a trial lesson. Leigh was very patient and helped try and encourage my daughter to realise that Maths isn’t a scary subject. Leigh was kind and sympathetic and a very good listener. I have complete faith in him that he will do his best to build her confidence and knowledge of Maths moving forward.
Thanks for your kind feedback Morag. Even during the first lesson, it was clear that your daughter has the potential to succeed in maths with personalized one-to-one coaching. It was a pleasure to see her eyes light up when she began to confidently handle problems that had seemed (just a few moments earlier) to be completely beyond her. I'm looking forward to unlocking that potential, so she can build self-confidence, pass her maths GCSE, and move towards a future filled with brighter career opportunities.

5 star 10/10
Leigh is a fantastic tutor. Very knowable on the subject. He quickly identified my strengths and weakness. Is very good at breaking it down and explain in a clear way. Also his online delivery is excellent **E-mail Address Removed**docs to create a live document that we can both work on at the same time. Now that i have Leigh helping me I feel confidant that I will pass my up and coming exams.
Thanks for the review James. It's been a pleasure working with you and seeing you progress so fast. At this rate I'm sure you'll have no problem with those exams!
From Sandy
Leigh is an excellent tutor Sophie has developed such confidence in maths since studying with him. Sophie says he is patient, kind and has an excellent way of explaining each area of maths so she understands and feels comfortable to work out the equations. We will definitely be continuing the tutoring sessions until Sophie's GCSEs, which I have no doubt with Leighs Guidance Sophie will pass with flying colours.
Thank you for your feedback Sandy. It has been a delight to work with Sophie and see her smile as she grows in confidence. Particularly handling areas of maths which she has previously struggled with and come to realise that she can now deal with them successfully.
From Arran
I have had three maths lessons with Leigh.I am not a very confident person but from the start Leigh has made me feel very relaxed.I feel very comfortable during my lessons and feel i am making good progress.Leigh is always ready to take time to explain things i dont always understand straight away. I look forward to my lesson every week and feel much more confident about my maths. Arran.
Thanks for your kind words Arran. It is a pleasure working with you and I look forward to developing your confidence in maths. Leigh
