Harold is very personable with wide-ranging interests but particularly passionate about engineering and the environment. He is up to speed with digital technology and keen to keep up with syllabus developments etc. He gently and patiently, but perhaps rather too slowly, introduced my son to alternative approaches to working through tricky maths questions and exam papers. The drive to his rural home/tutoring location is not for the faint-hearted!
From Jacqui
Harold has now been tutoring my son for several weeks. Jamie really enjoys the sessions, He says that Harold explains things very well. He has been very reliable and we are really pleased to have found him.
thank you for those kind words!

From Penny
Knowledgeable, approachable, clear. An ideal tutor!
From Jean-Marc
Have to say Harold is excellent. Very patient and has a passion for his subject. Likes to allow the pupil to dictate the lesson. My daughter enjoyed her tuition very much. Harold through his own practical experience even gave a practical lesson rather than just theory which made the subject far more interesting. Would not hesitate to recommend Harold… Excellent !!

Thanks Harrold for Tutoring Charlotte, you were great for explaining the questions she had difficulty with. Your knowledge of physics goes beyond just the teaching, I enjoyed our engineering talk after, you inspired me to get back into my garage and build things…
From Linda
Harold is a knowledgeable, inspirational and caring. My daughter is really enjoying her tutorials. He is very good at teasing out her mathematical ability and has given her confidence to apply it.

From Alex
Thanks very much Harold. Alex is finding his sessions with you very beneficial and is gaining in confidence.
From Alex
Harold has been of great help so far teaching me Maths and Physics A Level as a private candidate, he is more than generous with his time and I will continue to use him until I feel confident enough to sit the exams. Highly recommended.
From Mark
Harold did a fantastic job in helping my son with his A/S Physics. My son ended up with a B. He was just about to give the subject up before he started working with Harold. His school had prjected him an E grade at best. Harold has great way of teaching which encourages the student to think for themself which really increasesvtheir confidence. Would strongly recomend him.

From Thomas
Harold is an absolutely brilliant Tutor, and I am learning very quickly, he teaches lots of excellent little tips and tricks that allow you to think through work more methodically, allowing you to see solutions that you would not otherwise have seen. Thank you very much for the lessons so far and I look forward to our next meetings.
From Hazel
Have found him to be an excellent tutor making each lesson interesting and supports the theory with hands on experiences. I would highly recommend him.

Just wonderful. Covered the subject so comprehensively and instilled confidence as he went along. Thoroughly recommend . If there was a ten score he would get it.

From Elizabeth
My son really enjoys his sessions with Harold covering Maths or Physics. Harold has really helped him understand the subjects and the underlying principles. Harold's enthusiasm for the subjects is clearly infectious.
From Bridget
Absolutely brilliant! Harold is extremely enthusiastic and certainly has a depth of knowledge for his subject. Since visiting Harold, my son has regained his interest and confidence in physics. He actually looks forward to his sessions and, consequently, is progressing wonderfully in his college studies. Very highly recommended!
From Zak
Very good. Explained concepts well. Very pleased :)
From Anne
Helped me understand fundamentals of maths and physics I was lacking to tackle university studies. Very knowledgeable and explains things in a way I understand and remember. Excellent teacher.

An excellent couple of sessions which gave Ella the confidence that she needed - she was even able to tackle a question that most others were unable to do.
From Becky
I found the assistant i got a great help and it really cleared up some simple issues that has made mechanics a lot easier to understand, thankyou!
From Tony
Harold has been a great help to my daughter in her A level Mechanics. He explains unfamiliar concepts very well and is very patient in dealing with the struggle towards understanding. He has given her much confidence and I am very hopeful for excellent results in May.
From Peter
Hazel found her sessions very helpful and working through the problems rather than just being shown what to do was very beneficial and better for her confidence. Thanks for your help.
