Good website with a wide range of tutors. We recently found an English tutor for our son & so far all going well.
From Sharon
I am very happy with the help Garry is giving to my son who will be taking his GCSEs this summer. Garry is taking time to understand the way my son learns best and the knowledge gaps he has. Most importantly my son has 100 percent confidence in Garry and trusts him to improve his grades which will enable him to then go onto A levels, university and the career he has chosen.
From Jayne
Very responsive tutor, unfortunately despite Garry's best efforts we were unable to find times suitable for both of us.
From Tim
Gary is a reliable and consistent tutor. He works with my son to make subjects in Maths and Biology relevant to my son's interests to keep up his focus. Gary is calm and patient and even when my son has an off day, he adapts learning accordingly. I feel Gary strikes a good balance between applying pressure to push my son but not too much pressure so that he switches off to learning. For us, this is key to my son's learning experience. My son's confidence is steadily growing under Gary's tutoring and with the structure that Gary provides to the GCSE/IGCSE curriculum, this bodes well for good outcomes.
Thanks Tim, It's been a pleasure.
From Aubrey
Very Good tutor. Always willing to help.
From Deborah
My daughter is in year 10 and has been meeting regularly with Garry for many months now. I was most impressed when he first met her that he gave her a VARC test, which gave him information on her learning style. This gave me confidence straight away that he would work with her in a way that she understood, He has been able to assist her in a number of subjects, which has been of enormous help. She has gained understanding which has given her more confidence in her abilities. Garry is always on time, polite, sensitive and understanding with difficult situations. We will certainly be using Garry to help my daughter through her exams. I would highly recommend him.
Thanks Deborah, it's been a pleasure.
From Donna
my husband and I wanted to get some additional support for our son who struggles with Maths, being introverted our son does not easily communicate and we were spectical whether a tutor would be able to help him. Having not used a tutor previously we have been really pleased with Garry, he is very patient and has been able to communicate with our son more effectively than we thought possible. In a recent test st school our son performed really well due to the investment of having Garry tutor.
We are really pleased with his flexibility and persistence in managing a challenging teenager…
Thanks Donna.
From Mariaelena
An absolutely first class teacher. Garry is a superb tutor. He took time to understand my son first before he taught him anything. This is key in my opinion. Once he worked out how my son, [who has ADD], processed information, he could then teach him. Garry listened to my son. He then imparted his vast knowledge of many subjects in a way that flowed easily for my son to learn. His use of humour to keep the session from being too heavy was great and kept my son's attention. All school teachers should be like Garry. Sadly they are so consumed in adhering to the illogical policies of a fundamentally flawed education system caught up in league tables and results that the have forgotten the meaning of the word educate - which is to draw the full potential out of a child. When Garry came to help my son earlier this year, my son had been told by the private school that he attended, that he would fail his GCSEs. Naturally my son was very low at the time. Garry came in like a breath of fresh air. He believed in my son. And got my son to believe in himself. My son successfully passed ALL of his GCSE's with very high Bs and Cs. Children only learn from people they like. And they only learn when they are happy. I should really have taken my son out of school ages ago, and got Garry to educate him. You are an absolute inspiration Garry and were a godsend during a very challenging time. I can not thank you enough.
It was a pleasure Mariaelena.

Hiya Garry, Have emailed you twice about confirming the tutoring etc but haven't had a reply back? Just wanted to check that **E-mail Address Removed** is the correct email address? Thank you, Bethany
Sorry, we have just changed internet service provider. This led to a gap of a couple of days without service. Kind regards Garry
From Ruhin
Very professional. he would give extra care if student is late or not present by calling him and sending text massages.Communucates with the parents and reports to the parents about students progress. he has been teaching 2 students of our company and they were both happy with the quality of the classes and his teaching methods.
From Sarah
Very much improving my daughter's confidence in her ability to understand triple science, particularly biology. His approach conveys real interest in her achieving as well as she is able which has been really helpful. Took trouble to work out how she learns best, then build on it. Use of Skype sessions in addition beneficial. Very worthwhile experience of tutoring!
Thanks Sarah and Georgia.
