From grade C to predicted grade A. Phillip is exceptional in his teaching, i have had many tutors and by far he is one of the best, he truly reflects his prices. Phillip goes through content both fast and coherently, but slows down when he needs to for my understanding of the topic. I have covered all the maths for Business A level Edexcel in a month understanding all topics! (I have two sessions a week) Phillip sends me materials that my school didn’t think or attempt to send, and I feel miles ahead of everyone else. If you are serious about your A levels, he is truly the man for the job, I wish I didn’t waste my time with anyone else to be honest.
From Simon
Very good tutor - really helped with my daughters great results for 2nd year Business Studies.
From Anna
Phil gave our son a couple of months's worth of last-minute tutoring for his Economics A-level after it emerged that chunks of the curriculum had gone over his head. Our son's confidence increased markedly, and he enjoyed and appreciated his sessions. To quote, 'The best tutor I've ever had'. (And he's had a few.) He ended up with an A - definitely a grade up on what he'd have got without the extra help. Phil was extremely professional and organised throughout, and vitally, knows the curriculum and exam technique backwards. I couldn't recommend him more.
Many thanks for the positive feedback Anna. Your son was very hard working, diligent, highly motivated and conscientious. All of the factors, which drive the achievement of an A grade.
From Terentyi
I would say the most important value that Philip have brought to me is the improvement of writing. I come from France and I had many difficulties for writing essays. Phillip has helped me to improve my grammar, but also to improve my writing method (eg: statement, description, examples, critical analysis). I think the method is the key to get good grades in essays in universities, emphasising on critical analyses. Philip helped to get 70% on my essays when I first got between 55-60%. He is very knowledgeable in business-related fields, which was the field of my degree in Warwick. Do not hesitate !
From Bella
The best tutor I have ever had. Gave me a lot of confidence and dedicated his time to make sure I fully understood the critical analysis aspect of essay writing. The quality of my writing improved and I managed to achieve a grade that I was immensely proud of.
From Denise
Philips clear way of explaining and teaching my daughter A level Economics has not only improved her knowledge of the subject but also her confidence.
I am very grateful to Philip and would highly recommend him to other parents.
From Elizaveta
Very good tutor. Easily adapts to students needs and great to work with. Offers strong support in work with a wide range of knowledge. Would definitely recommend !
From Melissa
My son was struggling with A’level economics after the Covid lockdown and lack of regular tuition. Philip started tutoring my son in the second term of Year 13. Even though Philip had a relatively short period of time to help prior to the A’levels, his tuition made a big impact on my son’s confidence. My son’s school had predicted that he would achieve a C grade at A’level but he comfortably achieved a B grade. I would definitely recommend Philip.
Thanks for the positive feedback Melissa. It was a pleasure to tutor Peter. A keen, capable and motivated student. He will do well at uni. Best wishes.
From Aida
Philip had been absolutely fantastic in preparing my son for his mock A level exams. My son achieved A* in both his economics papers. Philip delivered clear and useful advice in 5 sessions only. Highly recommended.
From Sue
Philip is an excellent tutor. I have just completed my BSc in Business Management gaining a 2:1. The support I got from Philip was invaluable. His ability to provide remote support was vital during the past couple of years. What I found particulalry helpful was that he was able to get the tutorong approach just right, whether it was a topic where I just needed a bit of context or a topic that I needed more in depth support. I recommend Philip wholeheartedly and without reservation.
From Fru
Phillip has given our daughter clear pointers and strategies to pick up marks where previously, she did not know what to do to improve. She feels more confident and did well in her mock.
From Vivienne
In my first 90 minute Skype session with Philip I learnt more about academic writing and exam techniques than I had done in 2 years at University! His ability to give constructive critical feedback on coursework was amazing. He is a brilliant tutor, very knowledgeable with great communication skills . I would not hesitate to recommend him.
From Mitchel
Outstanding communication. Incredible support, guidance, and subject knowledge. Was able to run through my work and break it down into bite size chunks that are easily absorbed.
I would highly recommend Philip, and will use his services again on my next module.
From Chloe
Philip was so helpful during my second year in university, he helped me so much with my coursework and taught me how to critically analyse every point made in each essay. He helped me pull my grades up from a 2:2 to a 2:1. Would highly recommend !!
From Emilia
I couldn’t recommend Philip more! He was incredibly supportive and understood my work requirements really well. I would definitely use him in the future!
From Jenny
Feedback from William - very informative and helped improve my essay writing skills. With Philip’s help I managed to get a first in a coursework that I had not achieved before. Thank you!
From Violeta
Great tutor and great experience so far. Very informative. Would highly recommend. Kevin
From Karen
Philip has been a great support, very knowledgeable not only in his subject field but around education in general. My daughter really enjoys her lessons and his teaching style. Would highly recommend.
K. Horner
From Jamie
A very in depth tutor, was very useful with going through all the different topic areas, explaining everything very clearly, definitely would recommend
Thanks for the very positive feedback Jamie. You achieved a really good A grade in your Econ A level. That was a truly brilliant result, bearing in mind that you basically did it in one year. Well done indeed.
From Jackie
Philip is very experienced and knowledgeable with an individual approach, he gave me great support and advice and has a positive attitude. He gave me the support I needed to get back on track with my assignments. I will definitely recommend him as a tutor! Thank you Philip.
From Isabel
Philip was an amazing tutor. With his help, I was able to get the first for my business and management with marketing degree. He is able to provide the critical feedback I needed for all my coursework and dissertation that I was able to get a great result on all of them. He had great knowledge to help with all my modules from brand management, strategic marketing, internet marketing, international marketing as well as my final year project. It was easy to do as we did tuition via skype and was super easy to share our screens to know what to get on in the session. Even out of the session, he provides even further support by sending me articles and sometimes further feedback on how I am getting on my work or any worrying questions I may have. Very good quality service and was at a great price too!!
Many thanks Isobel. You were a pleasure to tutor. Your work ethic and ability were outstanding. You have achieved an exceptional result, as a First is such a fine degree to attain. Well done.
From Ben
Great so far
Thanks for the positive comments Ben, and after only one lesson!
From Laura
Philip was excellent with me and it is only due to his help and guidance with my Economics module that I am still on track for a 2:1. I really cannot thank you enough Philip. You took the stress out of it for me and even just the first Skype session to speak about the subject and the essay plan helped me to understand and take a genuine interest in a subject which I’d known very little about. Words can’t describe how grateful I am for your help with economics. You are very brilliant at what you do! Laura
From Scott
I'm not to sure if I'd of still been on my course if it wasn't for Philip's help. I can honestly and genuinely say that he's brilliant! He's available pretty much all the time within reason and I've even spoke to him on the phone to ask for advice before a coursework deadline. He's really patient and brings the best out in you. I would have no hesitation in recommending Philip.
From Galib
A very friendly tutor who provided excellent help for A level business and even helped me with writing up a great personal statement for university. Without Philip I would have struggled and am grateful to him. Would recommend him 100%.
Thanks for the positive feedback Galib. You were a highly motivated and diligent student who always gave of your best. I wish you well at university and know you will do well.
From Geev
Philip is an excellent tutor and was able to prepare me for my economics final. He provided in-depth explanations of economic concepts. Highly recommended!
Hi Geev and many thanks for your comments. I am so pleased for you and with the 1st you achieved. Really well done. A truly excellent degree result.
From William
Phil his done an outstanding job supporting me through my final year of University. He helped me improve my assignment grades from 52% to consistently above 70%, and graduating University with a first class honours. I highly recommend Phil to help support you and improve your grades.
An excellent final degree grade William, a first is so very hard to attain. However, your diligent and thorough research, combined with your strong work ethic and determined motivation has paid back with a highly rewarding, and well served final result. Well done.
From Ellie
Philip has been so thorough and incredibly helpful for my daughter's business A level . I cannot recommend him highly enough ! Ann
From Connor
Highly recommended tutor, could not be happier with the service received by Philip, truley professional, reliable and great value for money. Without his help I would not have achieved the grade I received. The only thing I regret is that I had not made contact earlier, Philip always has a answer no matter the question which would be explained with incredible accuracy and would be incredibly difficult not to grasp the concepts once explained.
Many thanks Connor. I was always impressed with your assign prep and very pleased with your final degree results. Well done.
From Kinza
Philip provided me with excellent support throughout my final year assignments with all my coursework. I am now due to graduate in a few weeks. I am very thankful and highly recommend Philip. Thank you so much again.
Thanks for your positive feedback Kinza. I was really impressed with your preparation, determination, hard work and motivation. It was a pleasure helping you with your assignments. I wish you all the best in your intended career.
From Lorna
Philip has been an excellent tutor. He has been tutoring Adam in economics & business, and been very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful in all areas. We would recommend him in these subjects.
From Raisa
Philip is a great tutor, very knowledgeable and experienced. He explains complex theories in a very clear and straightforward manner; he is also very strong on exam technique. Philip’s lessons are very efficient; he makes excellent use of lesson time. My daughter finds lessons with Philip very useful and helpful. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their economics grade.
From Jacky
Philip is a fantastic tutor. He helped me achieve a 1st in my assignment by explaining and simplifying key concepts and providing extended material that my university tutors did not provide. He was always quick to respond to any questions i had regarding the topic; whilst all online sessions were always very enjoyable. Could not recommend a better tutor !! Thank you !!
From Hanan
Great tutor,very easy going and understanding. From the first session with Philip my son felt more confident with his course work at college.
From Maria
From Igor
Really professional tutor! Absolutely worth of learning with Philip, really helped me with gaining knowledge regarding my assignments, No wasting time, once you skype call is answered, you start working with Philip. Really recommend him
From Aslam
From Eva
Philip is now tutoring Business to both of our clients - he knows exactly what they need to fill in gaps in their learning and to enable them to progress. His explanation is very detailed and he always makes sure that students understand every single step. He is a brilliant teacher with great knowledge of all areas in the A-level specification. Overall, the experience was one of which students very much enjoyed tutoring.
Thank you for the positive feedback. The students were highly motivated, keen and determined and it has been a real pleasure to tutor them.
From Lyn
Very helpful, thanks Phil!
Thanks Lyn. Megan was a pleasure to tutor. She worked really hard and was highly motivated. Accounting can be a difficult module, but she coped with it really well.
From Sundus
He is an excellent tutor and he helped me exactly what I want.
Thanks for your feedback Sundus. It was a pleasure to tutor you. Your work improved significantly and you deserve all your success. Well done.
From Debbie
My daughter was studying with the Open University (Business) and had a really difficult tutor for a 60 credit module in her 3rd year. She just could not please him and was at her wits end as her marks were plummeting. We enlisted the help of Philip who would proof read the assignments and make helpful suggestions. Her marks increased enough to keep her in the 2.1 bracket (if it had not been for this module she would have earned a 1st) Philip was flexible to work around her schedule and was always prompt to call. The tutorials were carried out over skype.
Well done Debbie. You were a highly motivated student and worked really hard. I am pleased you found me and that I was able to help you achieve your well deserved 2:1. I wish you all the best for the future.
From Elizabeth
Philip was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and made an enormous difference to our confidence! He reviewed work constructively and within tight deadlines. Top marks and would very highly recommend to everyone. Many thanks from all the family!
You worked really hard Elizabeth and the very good grade you received for your dissertation was well deserved. All the best in your future career
From Heather
Only met him once so far but seems to be on top of his game and my son thought he was very good. I very much hope he can help.
From Alise
I had two classes with Philip. I found him very helpful and supportive! Thanks to him I have received high score on my exam! His explanation is very detailed and he always makes sure I understood every single step we go through. He also supports each theory with really good life examples which make the topic much easier to understand. I will definitely come back! Alise
Many thank for the feedback Alise. You are a very capable and highly motivated undergraduate. Well done with the good exam result.
From Sophie
Extremely helpful, with great business knowledge. The sessions really helped me feel confident for my business exams. Thank you for all the help!
Thanks for the feedback Sophie. You are a very able student and I am sure you will thrive at university.
From Louise
Was very proactive, excellent with his communication and professional throughout. Really helped my daughter with both Economics and Business and I would recommend without hesitation
Many thanks for your positive feedback. Fran was a pleasure to tutor, a very capable and motivated student, who I have no doubt will do well at university.
From Tim
These sessions are proving to be invaluable as revision and confidence building in both Economics A level and for Business Studies A level.
Thanks for the very good feedback Tim.
From Kriztee
Excellent tutor. Would definitely recommend.
Many thanks fo the positive feedback.
From Hilary
Philip has been wonderfully patient, enthusiastic and supportive in helping our son with his GCSE Business Studies, We have had one-to-one lessons at Philip's home and via Skype, proving most successful. Philip has explained - and patiently re-explained - the problem areas and hope that he will continue to help us in the run up to the exams in June!
From Alex
Thanks Philip you were a great help, gave me that extra confidence boost that I needed before the exam. I found your method of delivering information and logical chain of reasoning helped me properly understand how to develop and evaluate arguments. There were 1 or 2 little things like not having properly read some of the sources before the lessons which is only reason it's not a 5. However, overall I am very pleased with your tutoring I got the A I needed in economics to get into university and I feel it is a large part thanks to you.
From Alistair
great prompt service, excellent teacher, patient and very knowledgeable. Restored my daughter's confidence in first year university Economics and Accounting. Many thanks!
Thanks very much for the positive feedback. I wish your daughter all the best in her future studies. She was a capable and very hard working student.
From Morgan
I contacted Phil to help me with A2 economics and A2 Business studies (both Edexcel), bit worried about Skype tuition but it was brilliant and i found it really helpful in both subjects. I would highly recommend Phil as he has flexible times and knows the syllabus very well. He was particularly good in teaching me how to structure and go about answering the higher mark questions, which can be tricky in Economics.
Many thanks for the feedback Morgan. You are a really hard working student who will do well at uni. All the best. Philip.
From Anne-Helene
My son decided to switch one of his 4 A-levels in mid January and pick up Economics instead. He had to catch up on a whole term and Philip has been incredibly helpful. Fingers crossed about his AS exams! Anne
From Karen
Philip really helped my daughter Jodie to understand her Business & Economics A level. It has really helped with her confidence having Philip to help her. He was also excellent in terms of communicating to arrange sessions. I would highly recommend him.
Many thanks for the positive feedback. I wish Jodie all the best for her exams. I am sure she will do well. Philip.
From Emmanuel
Phil is so customer orientated.and always provides the services to the highest quality. Highly recommendable i would rate Phil 11/10
From Caroline
Philip was really helpful. He responded promptly with advice. I would not hesitate in using Philip again.
Many thanks for you feedback Caroline. I enjoyed working on your assignment concerning market failure. Your application and enthusiasm for the subject was really apparent in your first draft.
From Konoya
The sessions that I have had so far have been great. Philip has suited his teaching very well according to my needs, and every session I have had has been helpful in develop my learning. The method of using Skype has proven very efficient, however as predicted, communication is somewhat hindered by a few technical difficulties we have encountered. Overall I am pleased with my experience.
Konoya is an excellent student, very keen and highly motivated. We are working through the specification and will soon be starting on past papers. Despite the occasional technical hitches with Skype it is proving to be effective.
From Anne
Philip has just started to tutor my son who is in his first year at university studying Business Management. He is well prepared, professional and has a thorough knowledge of his subject. My son has found their on line sessions to be very beneficial, Philip is easy to understand and very encouraging. We shall continue to use Philip next term
From Rachel
Efficient, thorough and knowledgeable. Has also given useful tips on techniques for answering exam questions.
From Ka Ching Tracy
Philip helped me with prove reading edit for my dissertation and personal statement. He is really good at it, would definitely recommend to my friends!
From Begho
Hi I have made contact with Philip. We are trying to sort out dates
From Yvette
Philip has not only helped our daughter better understand Economics, he is also showing her how to answer questions to show evidence of that understanding. She knows that he will check her understanding carefully, and is very thorough.
From Esther Abisola
Mr is very diligent and forthcoming. He also exudes intelligence and manages to have a sense of humour even when he's meant to be serious :). I gained a lot of confidence in my work and i'm happy i contacted him.
From Stephen
Helpful, excellent knowledge of his subject . Very focused.
Many thanks Stephen. The sessions were valuable to me as they were very advanced and enabled me via my preparation to add considerably to my knowledge and understanding, particularly relating to the capital output ratio and the Cobb Douglas function.
From Maria
Philip is a an excellent tutor who has extremely high level of knowledge in my subjects. Philip has been great help and I would highly recommend him. I could contact him anytime when I was unsure and he would be happy to help and would communicate rather fast.

Thanks for your feedback. I am enjoying helping your son, who is very keen and proving to be a good student.
From Jay
Whilst not having met Philip in person myself, I would not hesitate to recommend him. In the 2 weeks my son was given to retake a 1st year Uni exam, Philip helped him pass by more than doubling the original mark. My son found him very helpful and patient, taking him not only through aspects of the exam itself but general techniques which will be invaluable in future exams. He was very reassuring when I spoke to him on the phone. My son will continue to use Philip through other exams in the future.
Many thanks for the feedback much appreciated
From Holly
I requested Philip's help to aid my final year of my Marketing degree at bournemouth university. He was extremely good, kept things simple and had a lot of background knowledge around my subjects. He was extremely helpful and had lots of practical advice to try and get me to my 2:1 at the end of my finals, which i achieved after being on a low 2:2 at the begging of my final year to a middle 2:1 when i completed my degree i was so happy and i am sure my grade was down to the extra help i received from Philip!
Thank you Philip for all your help.
Many thanks I hope everything is going well for you thanks again
From Gus
Phil really helped me get a grasp of the basics and show me what I needed to do to get the marks! We ran through the course specification and simply talked through and worke out anything I didn't understand. More than anything he eloped build my confidence and gave me a strategy which meant I was not phased by harder questions. He was a great help and I achieved a much higher result than I thought possible at the start.
From Alex
I can heartily recommend Phillip as an economics tutor. I first contacted Phillip in March following my son's difficulties in his module taken in January. In spite of the incredibly short timescale, Philip started helping my son twice a week in the Easter holidays then subsequently once a week to take him up to his exams in June. Phillip's approach is extremely professional yet friendly and he does his utmost to help and cater to his student's needs. With my son's hard work and determination together with Phillip's committed guidance and excellent teaching, my son developed in both confidence and ability and found the sessions invaluable. His school predicted, in May, that he would be awarded an E grade in his Economics 'A' level; in reality he was awarded a B grade, quite a jump! My only regret is that my son didn't start his tuition with Phillip earlier!
Hi and many thanks for the feedback. I am so pleased for Alex. He was a diligent, highly motivated and hard working student. His excellent grade was really well deserved. Please pass on my good wishes to him and all the best for his future. Phil
From Kate
Philip has helped Rowan tremendously to date; he is obviously an expert in the subject and his enthusiasm has been caught by Rowan. He has also been extremely understanding and accomodating about Rowan's health problems.
Many thanks for the kind comments you have made. It has been a pleasure to help Rowan and he is a keen, motivated, enthusiastic and capable student.
From Aidan
Phil was an excellent Tutor and greatly assisted my son who was struggling with with his AS Economics. I would thoroughly recommend Phil to anyone who requires tuition in Economics at any level.
