My daughter only had one lesson with Tony, after a preliminary chat between Tony, my daughter and I. From a tutoring perspective for my daughter, the session was unfortunately not good as he was flitting around so much, chatting about his wife, the car and his kittens, that my daughter did not know when he was focusing on subject related matters and felt it was totally disjointed. Tony is a cheerful chap, and he did try explaining that he was relating these things to real life scenarios but it was not a teaching style that my daughter could work with.
From Kate
My son has only been using Tony for the last few weeks, however he seems to be enjoying his sessions. He is quite animated after the session, talking about what he has learnt, which is good. I think Tony will help him with his AS exams coming up in the summer.
From Samuel
My son enjoyed his lessons with Anthony. However I noticed (i) the lessons were driven by what my son "wanted" to learn and (ii) he gave my son no homework of any sort to objectively check his understanding and to build the skills required for A Level Economics exams. After a few weeks (4-5) of this approach I emailed/texted/called (had to leave a voicemail) to see if adjustments could be made. I got no response. In the end I cancelled the arrangement.
From Jonathan
Excellent tutoring. Very professional and thorough. Anthony gave my son great confidence to excel in this subject.
From Iain
Tony tutored my son for his A level economics, this is what my son sent Tony on the morning he got his results, I can’t say it any better. I can’t thank you enough for all the help and work you’ve done for me to get me into the position I am in now, when I first started having sessions with you I was on an E. My goal was to move up by a grade or two with C being a very aspirational target, but I’ve hit that because of you. You’re feedback and guidance after each exam helped push me further and want to do more, I can also say that after finishing exams, a part of me did feel a little lost not studying economics. Talking to you every Saturday morning had sparked something inside of me which turned economics from a subject I loathed into a subject I was keen to learn about and enjoyed. Once again, I can’t thank you enough and will be sure to recommend you to other students.
I enjoyed working with Oliver. The progress that he made was pleasing but for me, the real pleasure was watching him develop enthusiasm for what can be a difficult subject to get to grips with.
From Kelly
Anthony has increased our daughter's knowledge in Economics and therefore, her confidence. He is flexible and patient and goes the extra mile.
From Ally
Tony was very quick to respond and has already set up a plan of action to support my daughter with her resit exam in just 6 weeks and already has Held two sessions this week after initial contact just on Monday and a face to face introduction the following day. My daughter is very happy with his support. Thank you
From Debra

Tony has very good knowledge. Michael has not studied economics before therefore he is unsure of his gaps in his knowledge, he needs Tony to find out where those gaps are and what he needs to work on.

From Kum
He Just started i can't comment now.He is very punctual and really going well with my son.I am pleased.
From Helen
We are delighted that we found Tony, from the start he was prompt at getting back to us and no delay at all in arranging the sessions. He is all we could have hoped for in his subject knowledge, he has first class experience of a career in teaching. We asked if he could help with exam preparation. Tony is experienced at my son's level. My son really enjoys his sessions says that Tony has helped him enormously and ironed out things he was never sure of… Tony has gone through papers with him and we are sure that this will give our son confidence and a consolidation of knowledge which will stand him in very good stead. Tony has been flexible and very easy to work with. We cannot have asked for more, we are extremely happy and feel we struck very lucky finding Tony.
From Sue
Tuition has been very useful. Lessons are very focused and informative and are helping clarify some of the points Kate has been having problems with. The homework aspect has been especially useful as Kate gets to see where her exam techniques need improving. Very professional and obviously has extensive subject knowledge.
