What our students say
Xxx had a truly great day on the IGCSE Maths Revision Course. I have tried to get her to say what she would improve but she said she really couldn’t think of anything that she would change. The venue was perfect with a lovely garden to have breaks in, the timings perfect, the food does seem to have been a really wonderful highlight – maybe you could give some details of this in advance to advertise the delicious lunch and snacks! Also mention that they get given a pack with a workbook on the day. Xxx said it really helped her confidence and it was actually fun! The content was perfect, the group size worked well, the breaks well timed … Her feedback was all positive so thank you so much …

David is a such a professional, not just academically but as a good adviser for students. Xxx enjoyed the IGCSE Maths Revision Course very much with David and we regret we didn’t meet him earlier. As he does Maths for A level, we may have a chance to contact you again to arrange further lessons if he finds anything difficult during his further study.
—Parent of a GCSE student
Our son is so much more confident and seems to really enjoy Maths now. His last scores were 97% and 87% which he was thrilled about, a far cry from his usual 67%. So, thank you so much for really supporting him in regaining his confidence and love of the subject; he is determined to do it for A level.

My tutor’s personal and thorough teaching style has been without a doubt a deciding factor towards my being accepted to study at Imperial. He is an excellent teacher and a life mentor who will undoubtedly guide any student towards reaching his/her full potential, inspiring confidence and ultimately excellence.

I am a former pupil of Oxford Tutors and I have nothing but praise for them. My tutor turned my GCSE into an A* and gave me the confidence to carry on Mathematics into A-level. They provide clear and effective tutoring for all levels. You can’t find better and hence I’ve decided to write this review. Fantastic!
