Sam's Feedback

Sam is a really nice guy who is easy to talk to and communicate with. My son has special needs but Sam's approach is sensible and accommodating. I appreciate his flexibility and his good communication with me. I am delighted to have found him! My son really likes him and their sessions together as well.

Great teaching approach, Sam guides rather than spoon feeds so I can work through to the answer my own way. I an able to make notes that I can refer back to later.

Although we focus mainly on Physics, he is also able to help with my other subjects, Maths and Chemistry. He has helped me too by talking through some aspects of university admissions e.g. personal statements.

Sam had been a great help and has given my son a boost before sitting his gcse maths,
He is always reliable and prompt and friendly, would highly recommend sam if you are looking for a tutor.
Thanks sam.

Sam has been tutoring my daughter in preparation for her GCSE Maths resit.
They are getting on really well!
Sam is a polite and friendly person and my daughter has said his teaching skills are excellent.
Sam offered practical advice from the first session including recommendations for text books and online tools to help my daughter study between sessions.
We are very happy to have chosen Sam from First Tutors and would highly recommend him.

Sam has made contact and answered all the questions we had.

My son has been working with Sam for a few months now and the change in such a short time is remarkable. Sam has taken the time to understand my sons needs and works with him at his pace. My son has come on leaps and bounds in terms of confidence and ability. I would highly recommend Sam.

My son reluctantly acknowledged that he needed support with A Level Physics but after only one session with Sam is already feeling more confident. Sam is thorough and in addition to his excellent tutoring he provides notes and resources to further support his students.

Sam tutored my 15 year old son for about six months in Maths, Further Maths and Physics during the run up to school exams which replaced GCSEs in 2021. This was all during periods of lockdown and home schooling. My son was blown away by Sam’s knowledge of both subjects, found him easy to relate to and actually (miracle!) enjoyed the sessions. I have no doubt Sam made a major difference to my son’s ability and I know his confidence grew significantly. Sam was always super well-organised and professional. I was so grateful to find Sam through First Tutors when local options were not available. The virtual lessons worked brilliantly, in fact we found them just as effective and more convenient than in-person lessons.

Sam has a good understanding of our sons strengths and areas that require development - after 2 lessons! Our son is very positive and upbeat after his lesson and we are grateful for Sam’s help.

Despite a short tutoring period, Sam was helpful in reinforcing knowledge that I struggled with for Maths.

My daughter enjoyed lessons with Sam as every time she would come home and say :”Well, why didn’t they explain this to us at a school like Sam did”
Sam was Excellent at finding ways to explain methods and tricks around to help student find a solution to the problem. Diligent and organized, he helped my daughter love maths like she used to

Excellent, on time , approchable

Sam is a diligent tuition teacher that endeavors pass great knowledge in the course of the tuition sessions. He ensures all of the content is grasped with great degree of understanding and applies simplistic analogies to explain the abstract contents .

Sam is an excellent tutor. He is enthusiastic and explains things clearly. He has a comprehensive knowledge of the syllabus and my granddaughter always looks forward to his lessons. We are extremely fortunate to have found him!

I have been very pleased with Sam's service. He has been reliable, punctual and more importantly he has really benefited my daughter by having one to one Maths sessions which I know she is finding helpful as he is having the time to explain techniques in more detail in a way that she can remember and understand. I would recommend Sam.

I understand that Sam's help has been excellent and really helped to explain tricky areas in the Maths A level syllabus that our son was having difficulty with. Many thanks.

Absolutely fantastic. Really inspired my son in both Maths and Physics. Would 100% recommend Sam

Early days yet but our daughter seems very happy with Sam, saying that he explains everything well, and not only works on revision but keeps updated with her current work, and is making sure that she understands thoroughly.

We have made arrangements for tuition starting in September. Sam was extremely helpful in setting up and quick to help identify what we might need help with.

Provided good focused tuition on subject areas needed which increased my confidence. Very flexible on study times and provided assistance at short notice. Gained a grade higher at A level than expected.

Sam is very reliable and engaging. My daughter has found her tutor sessions with him to be clear, structured and extremely helpful. He is particularly good at developing approaches to exam questions. Recommended.

I contacted Sam with a view to starting two of my sons with him for IGCSE and AS science tuition from this summer onwards.
He responded to my request and subsequent questions immediately, answering all my questions clearly, concisely and honestly. I am in no doubt that Sam is going to be an excellent tutor.

San was originally required help for specific modules in Maths but has proved so helpful that he is now helping with other maths modules as well.

we have been very pleased withour experience so far.
Alan enjoys the tutor sessions and feels his confidence improving in the subjects

My daughter was struggling with her A2 physics particularly as she was not taking A2 maths. Sam was able to identify areas to concentrate on which would provide her with the confidence and understanding she needed. Without Sam's support I am sure our daughter would struggled to achieve a pass in the subject. We were delighted with Sam's tutoring and would definitely recommend him. We are also delighted to confirm that our daughter obtain placement in her preferred university!

Excellent . My daughter greatly benefited from Sam's extensive knowledge.

Sam tutors my son- AS level Physics. He is very good at the subject and always comes well prepared for the tuition. My son finds him very patient and friendly.

Sam has given my daughter the confidence and the encouragement she needed to improve her grades in GCSE maths. In just a few months her grades have dramatically increased and she gained a B and an A* in her mock GCSE examinations in December 2012 which was more than we had hoped for. We feel that Sam's teaching has given her the knowledge and skills that she was unable to gain from the classroom. Thank you Sam.

Due to ill health my daughter has missed a considerable amount of school and AS maths preparation. She has only had a few lessons with Sam and has already made rapid progress. She now feels back on track for a good result in this Summer's exams. I would be happy to recommend Sam to any parent considering tuition for their child.
