Alex is helping my daughter with A Level Classics. She is in her final year at school. She has found Alex to be very reliable and professional in his approach. Alex knows his stuff and in particular how to translate this into exam technique. I'm pleased with the progress made to date.
From Joyce
Alex tutored my son for his history A2 level, which he gained an A grade in. Alex really helped him to rebuild his approach to essay writing, making the signposting of key points much clearer and thereby helping to secure a good grade.
My son was getting quite jaded with a rather formulaic approach to his lessons at school and he found the opportunity to debate and discuss the topics more widely with Alex invaluable in keeping his passion for the subject. This discursive approach was particularly helpful in approaching the coursework topic, which Callum scored highly in.
Alex was extremely reliable and my son really enjoyed his time with him.
From Atinuke
My experience with Alex has been excellent. According to my son who is very particular, Alex is knowledgeable and a good tutor. My son and his friend enjoy their sessions with him and are learning a lot. I find him to be polite, a good communicator and flexible in his approach which he adapts to suit the boys.
From Jasbir
Aaron got an A*. Thank you so much Alex
From Sue
Alex is a real treasure and I would recommend him to anyone. My daughter decided in the November of last year that she would like to take Latin GCSE this July - quite a tough proposition and I confess I was sceptical. Then we found Alex and I can proudly write that Charlotte has an A* in Latin GCSE. Alex has a thorough knowledge of his subjects and the requirements of the exams. He is a very patient and calm tutor and quick to find a method of teaching that suits the individual. His advice was always practical and pertinent and no question too silly. I would certainly use Alex again should the need arise.
From Claire
Alex provided excellent tuition for my daughter as she prepared for her AS exam in classical civilisation. He was enthusiastic and offered structured and engaging support. She thoroughly enjoyed the sessions and I would highly recommend Alex to anyone seeking a committed, friendly and knowledgeable tutor.
From Harriet
Thanks Alex for your help with Willow and her coursework. Friendly, clear advise that motivated her efforts. Your tutorials were always focused and you had always prepped beforehand. We may yet need you again…
From Ewan
Alex is a great tutor. He has been very supportive in helping me improve my exam technique, advice which continues to be invaluable and highly worthwhile.
I am very impressed by Alex's level of expertise on history and he continues to present nuanced interpretations which I value a lot.
From Yuanchun
I am very impressed with his level of expertise in classical civilisation. He has a very thorough understanding of the topics and I feel I have learnt a lot from him. Would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking classical civilisation tuition.

From Adam
Alex has been helping my daughter prepare for her A level history in a few weeks time. He has set up his own programme, which she has found really helpful. He is very through, organised, keeps in regular contact, sends information that he feels will be useful My daughter feel much more confident about the approaching exams. I can highly recommend Alex as a tutor… My daughter is now going to university and she certainly found Alex's tuition helpful during the exams, particularly with her exam technique and background knowledge. Thank you, we couldn't be more pleased!
From Victoria
My son found his lesson with Alex very helpful and he is definitely more confident in this subject, the school has also noticed an improvement

From Charlotte Louise
My daughter has made great improvement with her Maths GSCE since Alex has starting tutoring her. My daughter says that Alex explains things very clearly and is very patient. I would definitely recommend Alex as a tutor.
From Jon
Alex is a punctual and effective tutor. He made a positive impact to my sons recent AS level examination in English and without doubt raised his result from a prospective C or D to an achieved grade B. I would sincerely recommend him and hope to use him for my sons continued education.
From Mandy
Alex tutored my year 11 son in English and English Literature during the Easter holidays. My son felt Alex explained things very well and that it will have helped him with the exams.
Alex also helped my year 7 son, who has mild Dyslexia, with his writing skills a couple of times. Although my son did not want a tutor, he immediately asked if he could have Alex again because he enjoyed the session and thought it was really helpful- Just getting him to enjoy writing is an achievement!
Alex is very reliable and will work specifically towards the relevant examining body syllabus or to your guidelines.
I will use Alex again and would definitely recommend him.
From Shahana
Punctual, intelligent, good at teaching . I am really happy with his standards. Would highly recommend
