What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

GCSE and A-level maths pupils around Hove are tutored one-to-one by Tom, based near Sackville Road. Reviewers repeatedly describe a tutor who explains a topic in several different ways until it clicks, which more than one parent says made more difference than anything offered at school or college. A recurring theme is steady progress with older students preparing for STEP and university entrance, including a pupil who went on to study engineering at Cambridge after problem-solving sessions built the reasoning the exam demands.

Parents mention marked jumps in grades, from a mock mark in the high thirties per cent to a final result close to eighty, and from shaky confidence to top A-level grades in both maths and further maths. Several describe Tom as punctual, patient and quick to answer questions between lessons, with each week's session noted as well prepared. Younger students mention feeling calmer and more positive heading into exams after working through past questions together.

A sixth-former who had lost confidence and slipped behind is described as being brought back on track across two terms of regular lessons. Across the reviews the picture is consistent: a private maths tutor whose patient, adaptable explanations and encouraging manner are credited with turning around results at both GCSE and A-level, from early secondary school right through to Cambridge entrance preparation.

Tom was an excellent maths tutor for our daughter whilst studying A-level maths. He was able to quickly understand where her weak areas were and give her confidence in the subject. A good teacher, reliable and able to adapt his teaching to our daughters way of learning, we would highly recommend Tom. Ian and Karen, Hove.

Tom completed two sessions with my daughter helping her process her answers on a recent maths test. He was really good at explaining concepts, as well as being patient and kind. I would definitely recommend him.

Tom was really great, not only with our son who had lost confidence in his further maths and gained it back with Tom's help but with all the logistics and admin around organising the sessions. Thank you Tom, we're so glad we found you.

Tom was really cheery and helpful, and delivered clear and well taught lessons. He helped me understand the concepts as well as how to answer questions on them, helping me to achieve a grade well above what I was expected. He kept me positive throughout my lessons and gave me real confidence going into the exams.

Tom was the main reason my daughter went from 38% in her Further Maths mocks to 78% in her A Level, which earned her an A grade. Tom is patient, extremely competent, thorough in his work and an exceptional tutor that I can recommend to anyone without reservation.

Tom helped my daughter understand maths areas that she hadn’t previously studied, before starting at a new school. He was patient, approachable and really good at explaining what maths techniques to use and why. I can recommend him highly.

Firstly I would like to thank Tom for helping my son get an A in his A level maths. He was always punctual, polite and a real pleasure to have around. He engaged with my son and tuned into the areas that needed addressing very quickly. Always being prepared for the following weeks lesson. Tom has an aptitude to teach tricky subjects articulately and was able to give my son the confidence to tackle these by his fantastic teaching ability.
