I first started my lessons with Shafei in around Feb 2023; a couple months before my A-level exams. I did not understand the examination format and the techniques involved with achieving the highest marks which I needed to go to University.
Shafei helped immensely with this; even in the short time that I had lessons with him. Our lessons consisted of largely exam practice in timed conditions which allowed me to become comfortable with the little time students are given. We also did past questions together, discussing different ways in which we could approach the question. Shafei is very encouraging and easy to talk to which helped me in understanding where I could boost my marks and thus my grades. Before meeting Shafei, my English contained a lot of colloquial speech and grammatical errors. Shafei reinvented the way I write in English allowing me to achieve the highest grades as well as being coherent with minimal grammatical errors. He boosted my grade up helping me ensure I achieved a high grade in my coursework and examinations. Thanks to him I managed to secure my place at the University of Birmingham.
Amy is the absolute model student - she always responded positively and immediately to feedback and would put in extra work outside of school and our tutoring sessions.
Congratulations Amy! It was such a pleasure tutoring you.
From Ranjit
Delighted to have found an excellent tutor for English for my son. Shafie has really helped my son grow in confidence. He listened to and understood my concerns for Noah and has focused on giving him the skills to navigate his way through exam questions. I feel very positive and hopeful for a good GCSE grade and would highly recommend Shafie to anyone looking for a reputable and second to none English teacher.
It has been an absolute pleasure working with the student and with the family. Ranj is incredibly supportive and has worked with her son to provide me with helpful feedback along the way.
I wish her son all the best in the forthcoming exams and to the family for the future.

Mohammed (Shafei) is a highly competent and professional tutor. He has seen my son twice now and has gained a rapport and knowledge of how my son requires tutoring to meet his needs. I am confident that Shafei will be able to help my son immensely towards his GCSE English Language Exam.
