David has been an excellent A-level tutor for my daughter and I highly recommend him. He really made the effort to tailor each lesson to the specific needs of my daughter. He has continually gone above and beyond, for example in coaching and supporting her for her NEA, giving detailed feedback on her essays or simply discussing complex topics to the detail she needs. She has gone into her exams both better prepared and more confident than I had hoped for.
From Rajmonda
David has helped my daughter to perfect her exam skills. He is knowledgable in the A-Level History courses and has immensely helped my daughter with her confidence in answering exam questions. I cannot recommend David enough!
From Naomi
David has received a 10/10 rating from my daughter in relation to preparing for A level history after her teacher's left her 6th form college. David is proving to be more than fantastic in terms of covering content, also helping with exam technique. I can hear that he speaks with a voice of knowledge, genuinely listens to her points of view, is encouraging - and is doing so much to fill up the gaps left by lack of regular teacher. He's also flexible and has gone out of his way to fit my daughter in at short notice. Thank you so much!
From Michelle
David has been tutoring my son for 8 months. My son thinks he's extremely helpful, friendly and approachable. David has outlined exam requirements and techniques which my son has previously found difficult to grasp. He is great at explaining what is required in a clear way and my son has really benefitted from private tuition. Thank you for your help!

It's only been a few lessons so far but David has already made an impact. My daughter finds his lessons helpful and fun.

David is an excellent tutor with both impressive subject knowledge and an in-depth understanding of the essay structure required to gain top marks in the exam. His enthusiasm for the subject is evident and helps promote greater motivation and confidence within the tutee in addition to ensuring that sessions are interactive and engaging. Furthermore, David's ability to work with the challenges and remain optimistic in the limited time leading up to the exam is a great asset. I would highly recommend David as a tutor and am incredibly grateful for his help in the run-up to my A level exams.
From Jame
My daughter has had her initial lesson and David has renewed her enthusiasm for the subject and is already pointing her in the right direction, particularly with applicable study skills… sadly a subject that has hardly been touched on by her college. Most definitely recommend.
Thanks James, your daughter was a real pleasure to teach and really engaged with the work. I've no doubt she'll make a big success of her A Levels this year as we gradually work through all of her exam skills.
From Mark
Has built a strong rapport with my son already. Marcus very keen to work hard at improving his style and content of answers.
From Sam
David is an amazing tutor. My daughter had her first lesson with him yesterday evening and was extremely pleased with how it went. I already knew David - we worked in the same college at one point - so I knew he had a history of exceptional success with A Level History students. My daughter said she loved his teaching style - brilliant at explaining the assessment objectives and engaging. He has given her the confidence to work towards a high grade and follow her dream of progressing to one of the top universities. She is already looking forward to the next lesson to get more feedback on her essay structure.
From Saadet
Although my daughter has only very recently started her tutorials with Dr , I consider it a very positive sign that she is looking forward to the lessons and finds the sessions enjoyable and productive.

Thank you David, you were brilliant. Efficient, clear, constructive, knowledgeable and friendly. You helped my daughter enormously with her essay crisis and gave so much value in just an hour and a half. The follow up notes you sent were great too. We will definitely contact you again if she needs more help later. I can't thank you enough.
From Ingrid
David has been tutoring my daughter since October and we have been very very pleased with the way he works and has given Tania a huge boost to her studies. Her confidence is so improved, she really feels she is getting to know the subject so much better and understanding how to formulate answers in mock questions. As parents this has been a a great choice for us and we have no doubt to recommend David.

From Veronique
David is an excellent tutor and has really helped my daughter to progress in her History A level. She has found him to be an enthusiastic and fun tutor, which makes the experience enjoyable and comfortable. He is also very well prepared and organised for the sessions. Overall, a great tutor and would have no hesitation in recommending him to new students.
Many thanks Veronique. Your daughter has shown fantastic progress in just a short amount of time, producing a really excellent piece of coursework and is now showing high level aptitude in her exam practice and technique. Bring on June!
From Alison
We needed a tutor to help our son with his History A'Level re-take and were very pleased to find David. David and our son have been working together since September and already it has proved very useful.Our son is gaining confidence back in a subject he really enjoys and says that he has probably learned more about essay structure in this short time than the 2 years he spent at college. Although having lessons via Skype was a little daunting at first David was very good at easing our son into this form of communication and despite some technical issues our end David was incredibly accommodating and patient. We all feel very lucky to have found David who is very easy to work with, has a passion for History (which we particularly liked) and most of all our son really enjoys his lessons. Roll on June!
From Jamie Liam
Great tutor, very committed, has helped me a lot with history including the coursework.
From Emma
David is reliable, engaging and personable. He knows the subject extremely well and seems to be getting my son to cover the necessary work.
From Julie
David has been tutoring my daughter for just a few weeks and already she feels she is really getting to grips with things she has been struggling with. She says he explains everything very clearly and is now far more confident with the subject. Skype has worked really well.
Dear Julie,
That's most kind of you to say. Your daughter has exhibited a real capacity for studying History and works exceptionally hard. Her structure and analysis in particular have come on leaps and bounds, and I've no doubt she'll achieve an excellent result in her end of year exams.
From Morag
I cannot recommend David highly enough. If you are looking for a committed and enthusiastic historian with a thorough knowledge of course content combined with expert guidance on exam technique then David is your tutor. It also helps that he is relaxed and approachable. A great confidence boost to my daughter facing the new exam spec.
Mrs Smith
From Olalekan
David contacted us quickly and communication with him has been swift. He is proactive and quick. We look forward to a great tutor/student relationship.
From Sarah
I contacted David to support my son through his A Level history. Every week David was available via Skype where they discussed course work and reviewed areas of the subject that they felt needed additional support. David was very knowledgeable and created a supportive and friendly relationship that enabled my son to improve his grade. Thank you david
Thanks Sarah. Was a pleasure to tutor your son - he had a real gift for analysis and evaluation, and I'm glad we managed to improve his grade.
From Emma
Hi David - I was given your **Web Address Removed** email and messaged you there - is this the correct email for you? Thanks, Emma
From Hilary
David has tutored my son via Skype for the past couple of months. I was not sure about tutoring in this way but decided to give it a go when I could not find any **Contact Detail Removed**s. Having seen David in action I quickly realised the means of tutoring is not an issue, the important thing t is the quality of the tutor and their ability to establish a rapport with the tutee… In David's case, he quickly demonstrated his excellent teaching skills and his ability to engage my son in his history topics, and to keep his attention for both 1 and 2 hour sessions. I would thoroughly recommend David as a history tutor and this means of tutoring.
Thank you Hilary - Fergus showed a real aptitude for History and it was a pleasure to help him in his linear A Level studies!
