Amazing maths tutor! Barney has really supported and expanded our son’s maths ability throughout his A level year. We’d recommend him without reservation.
Barney has been a wonderful A level tutor for my son Tom. He really enjoys his lessons and his confidence has grown so much. Tom has so much respect for Barney and looks forward to talking all the mathematical problems through with him. Barney has been such a find and I have already put my younger son on his list for 2027!
Barney has been amazing helping my daughter prepare for her TMUS, Maths and Further Maths A-levels.
Barney is a brilliant tutor, he was very quick to identify my strengths and weaknesses and could curate our time so that it was enjoyable, but at the same time, he filled the gaps and boosted my confidence as well as my mathematical understanding, and it was his work that put me at ease with my GCSE’s and solidified me getting a 9 in maths. He made maths feel like playtime and set my path in maths.
I really enjoy my Further Maths lessons with Barney- with every lesson, I feel more confident as I move closer to my exams. Barney’s approach to explaining concepts that I had previously struggled to grasp is always positive and encouraging, and each lesson I come away with helpful notes and examples to review and look back on.
Hi Barney – hope all is good with you. Hopefully Tom has been in touch with you already, but I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help with his A level maths. Tom’s achieved an ‘A’ in maths, and so is off to his first choice University to study Civil Engineering. We are so happy that we found you when we did in February, as Tom had scored a ‘C’ in his most recent mock exam, and needed some help and guidance to get him back on track. Your fantastic tutoring over the next few months gave him the confidence to go on and fulfil his potential in his A levels, and I am sure that he will carry that confidence on to his degree studies. I hope that you have had a very successful year with all of your other students too. Thanks again and best wishes, Richard
Barney has really helped prepare my son for his A level maths. He has gained in confidence if his ability and improved his understanding of the required topics tremendously. I was very impressed with his efficiency and professionalism and would not hesitate to recommend him to another student.
