Ruben's Feedback

Ruben was a fantastic tutor !
We started using him when the pandemic began and schools were closed. We were initially concerned about online, however Ruben had a great set up for this.
After using Ruben, my sons confidence grew and his exam results increased and he began to score very highly in his tests and then predicted grade exams.
We highly valued the fact, that Ruben always contacted us if he felt he need to discuss my sons work or progress. He helped put my son at ease when his exam board unexpectedly changed half way through the year, and helped him adapt to the new syllabus and style of questions.
His lessons were invaluable in helping him achieve his A* for his A Level Economics which allowed him to go to his First choice University.
Thank you very much Ruben for all the help you gave our son.
I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an Economics tutor.

Ruben is a fantastic teacher who has in-depth knowledge. My son benefitted immensely from his knowledge and teaching methods for A level maths. He passed with A*. Thank you.
I strongly recommend Ruben for A level maths tuitions!

Ruben is an amazing teacher as he is very student friendly and also encouraged me to ask doubts even if it is outside the class.
When I told him that I was struggling with a particular chapter, he sent very good resources which had in-depth explanation.

Ruben is an excellent tutor, he is very encouraging and patient
A tutor who never gives up on trying to help the student
My son has just achieved the grade he needed for university.
I have no hesitation in recommending him as a tutor

We have had Ruben for only a few lessons but so far my son has been very happy with Ruben’s teaching. He is very prepared and thorough. My son is new to Economics but is enjoying the new topics. I would highly recommend Ruben we have been very happy with his teaching, resources, organised manner and flexibility.

Ruben is a fantastic tutor. My son has come on so much with his maths since having lessons with him. He is so professional and makes my son work to his full potential.

Ruben is a fantastic tutor. He has helped my daughter enormously. We cannot thank him enough. Highly recommend!!

Ruben is a very helpful economics tutor. Although we only had few sessions due to time conflict, they really improve my confidence in economics. The very great things about Ruben are 1 his explanation of the economics theory is very clear, 2 always answer my confusion even outside of the tuition time, which means I do not need to waste my time struggling myself 3 really motivated, making me to revise and practice, which is essential.

An outstanding tutor. Ruben has only been teaching my son for a few weeks - A level Economics - but already there has been improvement in my son's exam technique. He is really detailed in his approach and goes above and beyond. I only wish that we had found him sooner.

Within only a few lessons Ruben was able to siginifcantly boost confidence and understanding of specific A Level Economics topics. Would recommend Ruben to others needing help with A level Economics.

Ruben is an incredible economics tutor who helped me get off the ground after months of not studying to achieve an A in just 8 weeks. He was really detailed and committed to helping me with topics I didn't understand. He is also really good at explaining topics, whether they are simple or difficult.

Ruben has been teaching my daughter A level Economics for almost eight weeks now. There has been marked improvement in her essay writing skills. She compared a 25 marker she writes now to to one of her previous 25 marker and thought there was huge improvement! She says Ruben explains topics really well and gives detailed feedback to further improve her answers.

I plan to continue my daughter’s tutoring with Ruben for a couple more months.

I highly recommend anyone looking fo A level Economics tutor.

We were very pleased with Ruben. He is a great teacher and has provided useful resources and helpful advice. I feel that his guidance has definitely helped my son to progress.

A much better economics tutor than my school's one and pretty much any other I've been tutored by. And knows Edexcel marking scheme inside out. I stay focused all lesson because everything he says is important, straight to point. Whenever I ask something he has the clearest explanation for it. Can't recommend highly enough.

My son has only been with Ruben for a few weeks but already has gained in confidence with his Economics A Level studies. Work is set and checked/discussed every week.

Ruben is an outstanding tutor who helped my son with his A-Level Economics. My son particularly benefitted from Rubens knowledge of how to construct longer answer questions and as a result was able to achieve the high grade he needed for university.

I would highly recommend Ruben to anyone taking A-Level Economics.

In the second year of the Sixth Form (2018 – 2019), to improve my son Andrew in answering the long questions in Economics. We found Ruben in the FirstTutors. He is a dedicated professional Sixth Form teacher with huge experience in teaching A-level Economics. He started to give Andrew 1-hour lesson very Friday evening via Skype. Every week he gave Andrew one or two essays to practice. After 7 months, the hard work has paid off. Andrew achieved A* in Economics, which is above his school prediction.

We are very happy with Ruben’s help and would like to recommend him to anybody who needs help in Economics.

My son came to Ruben for both A level maths and economics and achieved very strong As (just missed A*s). Ruben is knowledgeable, punctual, effective and caring. I can't express enough my appreciation to Ruben's help. Extremely highly recommended.

Excellent tutor. Very helpful helped me achieve a high grade.

Ruben was excellent. My daughter had a predicted D in January in Economics. Through, Ruben's excellent tutoring and my daughter's hard work she achieved a strong A in her A level exams and a C from a predicted E in her Maths. More importantly he increased her confidence and self esteem. I highly recommend Ruben if your child is struggling, my only regret is that I didn't find him sooner.

My son started Maths tutoring with Ruben in September 2018 leaving only 8 months to improve on his predicted grade 3 before he sat his GCSEs. My son has just received his GCSEs results and got a grade 5. He really enjoyed going to Ruben once a week, his confidence grew as his understanding of maths improved. His maths teacher commented at parents evening how much he had improved and more confident he had become. Without Ruben's tutoring he wouldn"t have achieved the grade 5. I totally recommend Ruben he brings out the best in his students. Thanks so much Ruben

High recommend Ruben's tutoring. He has a very engaging approach and breaks down difficult topics into simpler components so they become much easier to understand. Ruben has helped me progress dramatically and develop a stronger sense of confidence.

An excellent tutor! Reliable and calm. I can thoroughly recommend him.

The sessions with Ruben have made a huge difference to A's confidence to tackle exam questions and her grades have improved significantly. She was worried she wouldn't get the A she needs for Uni but it is looking very hopeful now. Ruben has been 100% reliable, punctual and each session is crammed full of learning. Thank you

Outstanding tutor. Ruben has gone above and beyond to support my son. Especially in areas where his own school have failed him. Highly recommended.

He gives excellent guidance on answering long answer questions. He also gives really useful resources. He explains concepts very clearly. He's a very dedicated tutor I highly recommend him. I would not have got an A* without his help.

Very good tutor who helps you with essay structure and key exam technique which wont be taught in school lessons. Offers a lot of support and pushes you towards the the highest possible grade.

Moved my daughter from B to A* - Excellent Tutor!

He is a very good tutor that helped us immensely. He taught important pieces of exam technique which is needed to get the higher grades.

I have no hesitation in recommending Ruben. At the start of Upper Sixth my son was disengaged with Economics and he was looking at a grade D. With Ruben's encouragement and support, he eventually achieved a grade B which was beyond our expectations. Thank you Ruben

Ruben is an excellent tutor who puts his full entertaining and time to understand his students weakenesses and helps them by providing them
with very helpful material to help them achieve the top grades. Highly recommended. Helped me to push from a E at As to a B for A - Levels.

Mr.Ruben is an excellent tutor .He has guided my son in sixth form 2018 to achieve high grades in Economics.He not only provides exceptional academic guidance but also motivates his students to have confidence to do their best. I will strongly recommend him as a tutor.

Ruben is amazing, he’s skilled at explaining topics in a very detailed and understanding way. Complex topics that I struggled with were broken down into simple forms by him which I now have a full understanding of. He has provided me with a greater understanding of how to structure my essays, as well as the points that directly answers the question that I may have missed. Ruben is also patient as he takes time to make sure I’m certain and confident about the topic. Definitely recommendable! Thanks you Ruben!

A great tutor who has taken time to understand my son’s learning needs and focused tutoring in a structured manner.
Very helpful offering material to support Learning. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your excellent services.

Ruben is very approachable and his lessons are well structured. So far my son has improved on his exam technique and he is in a position to answer long style questions faster and with more confidence. My son is very happy with Ruben's teaching style and find his lessons enjoyable and challenging.

Ruben was an excellent tutor who provided clear and understandable instruction to my daughter. He enabled her to understand and come to grips with the Economics syllabus and at the same time increase her confidence. She passed with an A and went on to her first choice university. I cannot recommend Ruben enough- he is extremely good at what he does. Ruben, thank-you so much!

So far has produced good resources and is fully aware of what exam board will be looking for.

Ruben is very clear about the exam techniques for Edexcel A level Economics, including how to structure essays, what evaluations to make and how to add diagrams. I would recommend Ruben to anyone wanting to improve exam skills.

Very professional, knowledgable in tutoring economics, make the lessons easier and enjoyable. Thanks a lot .

My son has only had a few lessons so far with Ruben, but has been very pleased with the quality of the lessons.

This tutor is highly recommended

Ruben is an excellent tutor for my son. My son had only few lessons with Ruben but I can see a big improvement in his Economics marks. Thank you Ruben

I can not thank Mr Torres enough for providing such outstanding tutoring techniques and dedication. This has helped my nephew tremendously in regaining his confident on the subject and he feels he will be able to achieve his target grade.

Ruben is an excellent tutor and always trying to help and motivate his students. Mervin wouldn't have done well in his AS and A2 exams without the help from Ruben. Thank you for teaching him for two years.
Alex

I was very impress with Ruben and so is my daughter. He has been very patient and thorough with explaining and making sure that my daughter has understood the subject.
She has learnt quite a lot in the short period before her exams.
We are looking forward in continuing our lessons with him.

Ruben is very professional and an excellent tutor. My son has only had three lessons with him just before his AS exams and has already improved on his knowledge and exam technics. We would highly recommend him.

very professional and knowledgeable. He understands what needs to be done and does it

Made what was so difficult beforehand seen incredibly easy by the first 2 lessons. Outstanding knowledge of the exam board and the exam technique. Did what was needed to do and turned a D grade into an A(mock exam result) after 3 sessions. So brilliant, had the teacher suspicious about cheating. Highly recommend

My son had his first lesson yesterday which he found very informative and helpful and look forward to more of the same.
Thanking you,
Tracey

Reuben has been great with his tutoring services for my son in Economics and Business Studies.He is reliable and dedicated.

Ruben is a great teacher. Provided great support and resources - Helped my son by targetting his weaknesses and setting high standards, resulting in an A grade for his AS Economics.

Very experienced and helped me a lot with exam technique

Ruben has helped me greatly in my Alevels. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their economics grade.

Ruben is an excellent tutor, my son who is studying A2 has a renewed interest in economics and now wants to continue to study the subject at university. Lessons are well structured with a good emphasis on appropriate exam technique.

Hi Ruben, thanks for everything you have done so far to help Ollie. he is feeling much more confident about economics and you are really challenging him to think about the subject. He has begun to understand the ideas better and is keen to improve the structure and accuracy of his answers with your help. He is looking forward to continuing to have your guidance in preparation for his A2 exam this summer. many thanks Ruben, you have saved the day! Sam Rudge

Ruben combines all qualities a good Maths and Economics tutor must have:
An Engaging Personality and Teaching Style
Clear Objectives for Lessons
Knowledge of Curriculum and Standards
Knowledge of Subject Matter
High expectations of his students and encourages everyone to always work at their best level
Efficient communication with students and parents

Ruben is a top class tutor, and there is no doubt that the quality of his teachings are excellent, his content knowledge is perfect and his ability to spot out ones weakness in the Economics syllabus is impeccable. I was very fortunate to have found him.
I've given him 4/5 based on the fact that I've only managed to get a few lessons off him. Due to him being a very busy, high in demand tutor, his timings aren't flexible. Perhaps, I am being harsh as he is still the PERFECT tutor, and he is able to fulfill in a constrained time.
Highly recommend.

Ruben has been a great asset in helping my son during his Maths AS and currently his A2 exams. He is articulate in explaining problems and very patient. As well as this he is always willing to help answer any questions outside of the lesson. He also sends information which he thinks may be useful for revision, whether it be for Maths or Economics and this is vey much appreciated. I know my son values his help greatly as do I.

Ruben was a superb tutor with high expectations. He was always extremely well prepared and inspired our grandson, Jack, who looked forward to the sessions with Ruben. Jack will continue into A-level economics with great enthusiasm.

I cannot thank Ruben enough. He is an excellent tutor. Although my son has only seen him a handful of times, he now feels more confident. He is about to start his AS exams and I wish we had found him sooner!
When I asked my son for feedback on Ruben he simply said 'exceptional'. Thank you Ruben, I highly recommend you.

Excellent economics tutor. Would gladly recommend to others.

- Jakob.

Ruben is very knowledgeable and will focus on good exam techniques and practice.

My son Ben has just achieved an A grade in A Level Economics 1 and 3. I feel sure without Ruben his grade would have been a B possibly a C. Ruben prepares thoroughly and gives endless advice and help. Very very impressed and highly recommended.

Ruben engages very well and set clear objectives for each lesson making sure this is met. He has thorough knowledge of the subject and keeps it interesting and this has facilitated good learning. He is passionate about teaching and impacted the best so far. I would recommend him to any one. He took my daughter from d to and A.

My child only started going to Reuben 3 weeks before her exams yet immediately after the first lesson she felt she had gained a lot. The knowledge and support via resources Reuben provided were very helpful. We have subsequently continued taking lessons and look forward to seeing the impact on her results.

Ruben has been an excellent tutor in Economics, he taught me how to approach exam questions and also different techniques to answering essay questions. Although the lesseons were only an hour per day, many areas of topics were covered. He has a friendly and comfortable approach. I highly recommend him for tutoring in Economics

Ruben is a very dedicated and reliable tutor who takes so much pride in what he does. He is very committed. I will surely recommend him. We are extremely pleased with him.

Ruben has been fanastic in helping me grow in confidence and has been very proactive in providing me with additional support and homework. If I have any queries regarding any topics I am able to contact him outside of our tutoring hours and he responds very promptly in helping me solve them. I have been really impressed with Rubens support and the variety of ways he can explain different topics depending on my understanding.

Ruben has been an absolute godsend. He's very organised, has a mountain of useful resources and knows exactly what examiners want to see - not surprising considering he is one! My daughter has really enjoyed their sessions and got an A in her economics AS Level, which we have Ruben to thank for.

Ruben is a fantastic tutor! He helped me to achieve an A grade from a U in my Unit 2 retake (in just 10 weeks) and helped me to achieve a B overall. I'm really pleased with his teaching and my final grade. Thanks!

Ruben has given my son the confidence and ability to tackle topics which he had previously found difficult. My son is now highly motivated to succeed thanks to Ruben's tuition.

My son has been going to Ruben for the past three weeks for help on his A Level Economics and I have found that his confidence has really become strong, and he understands the subject a lot better, and Ruben is very supportive and my son really enjoys the lessons.

My son has only had 2 sessions with Ruben so far (AS Level Economics) and has been very pleased so far.
Ruben is very organised, punctual and I am confident that he will be most helpful in my son achieving an excellent exam result.

Adam and I would just like to thank you for all the help and patience you gave him. He only started lessons with you 4 weeks before sitting his Maths GCSE, but Adam felt more confident and had a better understanding of showing his workings and strategies to put to better use.
I will be contacting you in September regarding my other son Gregor, who we will start much earlier at tuition, as we can see the benefits of this form of tuition.

Kind regards,
Lesley Laurence

I have now been using Ruben to tutor my child in Economics for a few months now. He is dedicated and interested in his students. He gives me good feed back about my child and makes sure that my child has a lot of material to help with the course. I recomend Ruben a 100% for Economics

Very professional and really really good at teaching. He has been very helpful and organised, a great tutor for my son who is currently studying his AS levels. Will definitely recommend him to all. Thank you Ruben!

Professional and straight to the point. Quickly identified gap in son's knowledge and responded by providing structured assistance. Expected outcome achieved, job well done.

Mr Torres has been an excellen tutor for my daughter. he really cleared a lot of concepts and helped tremendously to pull up her grades. I am very grateful for the time he has given to her.

Ruben provided excellent help to our son in studying for his AS Economics exams

Ruben has been excellent, explained things much better than my teachers in school.

Ruben has been a fantastic tutor for the run up to my A2 levels. He has shown me new, alternative approaches to questions I have had problems with, thus, making them simpler to answer. He has asked me prior to lessons which topics I would like to go through and has prepared material suitable for myself.

I would highly recommend Ruben for anyone that is take A-level mathematics.

James Taylor

Ruben has been tutoring our son for the last month. He is an excellent tutor. As an examiner himself, Ruben knows exactly what is required to achieve well in the exams. He plans sessions ahead of time and sets and thoroughly goes through papers. He is very helpful and keeps us (the parents) in touch with what is happening via email.

Ruben is very helpful in our tutorials. I'm very happy to have found him.

Excellent teacher in both Economics and Maths and i really enjoy learning. Hassan.
