Stuart

Stuart is an excellent tutor, very professional, extremely organised with an indepth knowledge of the Higher curriculum. He has helped my daughter understand and learn the 'technique' needed for Higher English, especially regarding RUAE and the Critical Essay.
He has also for the first time inspired my daughter to read more and given her confidence in English.
I really cannot recommend this tutor enough.

Stuart has been a great tutor for Higher English. He is friendly, explains things clearly and has helped me feel well prepared and confident going into assessments. I have enjoyed our sessions each week over the last year and I feel that I have improved a lot with his support and feel a lot more confident. Stuart has been able to provide a level of detail that I wouldn’t get in class in school and this has really helped me.

Stuart has been a great help to my daughter in studying for her Higher English. He is super organised and his sessions are well prepared and structured. He really helped my daughter gain confidence in her RUAE answers and gave her good guidance on her critical essay structure as well as helped her expand her vocabulary more generally. He also set her challenging but manageable homework which kept her focussed between sessions. He's very knowledgeable and provided my daughter with a huge selection of helpful resources including past papers which they worked through together. Overall a really approachable friendly tutor who's has definitely helped my daughter prepare for her English Higher.

I can absolutely recommend Stuart; he has really helped my son for the past year, both with his Nat 5 and his Higher English.
We first contacted him last February when I discovered my son had done poorly in his Nat 5 prelim and I realised that he needed a lot of support on order to achieve a decent pass in the main exam. Stuart is very knowledgeable and committed and he really helped get Scott on the right track. He's a nice friendly chap too who my son gets on well with which also makes a big difference. Although he didn't sit the "real" exam due to Covid, my son was awarded a B after only 3 months working with Stuart. He's now supported my son through homeschooling and he's definitely been invaluable. I'm absolutely convinced that he's made the difference between my son now looking like he will achieve a decent pass at Higher rather than having been unable to manage a pass at all!

Stuart has been tutoring our son in NAT 5 English since the start of this academic year and our son's confidence and attainment in this has improved massively during this time. Stuart has great knowledge of all aspects of the English NAT 5 syllabus and communicates this in an easy to understand and enthusiastic way which has really motivated our son and has had a positive effect on his confidence. Stuart always sets clear homework prior to each section and ensures that this relates to the set texts being used at our son's school in addition to encouraging further reading. We would recommend Stuart very highly - he is an excellent tutor.
