Peter has been of great help in developing the skills and techniques for mastering the Maths Higher paper. Peter has an engaging and patient approach from the ground up, that builds confidence and facilitates proficiency. Aside from practice on all aspects of the specification, Peter provides useful tips and hints on exam technique, to ensure potential errors are mitigated and the accrual of exam points are maximised. Progress and review is shown on a week to week basis with access to questions completed. I would recommend Peter.
Thanks for your positive feedback Paul. It is a pleasure to tutor your son. He is improving each week and has gained so much confidence.
From Sue
In the short time my son has been working with Peter, my son's confidence in maths has significantly increased . With that, he has gained in his enjoyment of maths and the feedback from his school has got better.
From Adrian
Highly recommend Peter. He is currently tutoring maths to my son William who is in his final year of A levels. Peter's support has given William confidence & a greater knowledge of the subject, expanding on areas that will help him push towards the grades he strives for. The structure, content & Peter's calm presentation methods have really delivered & made a huge difference in such a short timeframe. A friendly & approachable guy.
From Alex
Really happy with Peters continued help with my daughter’s preparation for her GCSEs. Excellent teacher.
From Kate
My then 14-year-old daughter was really struggling with maths, so I contacted Peter about some extra tutoring. She has gone from the GCSE equivalent of a grade 3 (or even below) to a grade 5 in about eight months. What is just as important as her grade is that her confidence in what she can achieve has soared. What Peter did was go right back to basics and fill in some missing building blocks in her maths learning, as he said that is often the case - that children have missed a few basics in primary school and never recovered properly. He will tailor his lessons to your particular child, and if my daughter says she is struggling with this or that in class, he'll adapt the lessons to suit what she needs. Peter is calm and approachable, and the growing confidence she has found over this past year being coached by him in maths has spilled over into other subjects, so it's been a win-win situation. I can't tell you how thrilled she was to find out this week that she got a grade 5 in her mock GCSE maths. And a huge proportion of that is the steady support and encouragement she has had from Peter. I can thoroughly recommend him as a tutor.
Thanks for the wonderful feedback Kate! It’s a pleasure tutoring Lucy. It’s great to see her blossom and make excellent progress with me. I really believe she can achieve success this year.
From AMARJIT
Very good tutor for our son studying GCSE Maths. He achieved a good grade following Peter's help which shows how he improved from his past mock results.
Thanks for the positive review Amarjit. It was a pleasure to tutor your son!
From Jen
In a galaxy, far, far away, Obi-Wan Kenobi would be telling you that Peter IS the Maths tutor you are looking for.
Seriously. Look no further.
Peter is a reassuring tutor and has an easy rapport with his students. 11 lessons in and our son Fionn has thoroughly enjoyed each and every GCSE maths lesson and apart from improving his maths enormously over this time, Fionn is always beaming and buzzing after his tutoring - which is mad because we are talking about a 15 year old who has just given up an hour of his free time to do maths… You can’t ask for more!
Peter has an incredible way of explaining things to enable understanding - he has a tried and tested method - which works. Fionn says Peter is literally a maths wizard; there are things that our son just did not get in the classroom no matter how many times it was explained but when Peter showed the workings / explained the process - the penny dropped - years of frustration gone.
Our son is so much more knowledgeable, confident and empowered with his maths and I cannot thank Peter enough for his wonderful tutoring.
Thanks for the wonderful review Jen. I appreciate the detailed feedback. It’s a pleasure to tutor your son Fionn. He is making excellent progress and I believe he will do well.
From Daniel
Peter is very passionate about what he does and goes the extra mile. The work done is saved and emailed to us. He’s teaching my son good practice which he absolutely needs. We have only had two lessons so far but I am confident that we’ll have exceptional results.
Thanks for the positive Feedback! Cornelius is a bright boy and a pleasure to tutor.
From Christa
We have had Peter now for 3 months helping our son towards his final year in GCSE Maths. He is an excellent tutor, our son is very pleased. We only wish we had found him much sooner. Although Peter does not come cheap, there is a reason. He is exceptional and is well worth it. If you are looking for a excellent Maths tutor, look no further. You have found one.
Thanks for this feedback! I really believe your son can achieve an excellent result this summer. He has progressed significantly in the last few months.
From Lizzy
Peter is an outstanding maths tutor. Alex really appreciates his well structured and planned lessons. His confidence has grown enormously in just a few weeks and he looks forward to his lessons. Perfect timing for his upcoming GCSE exams. Peter is genuinely enthusiastic about his subject and teaching, we’re over the moon to have found him!
Thanks for your review Lizzy! Alex is already making excellent progress and is a model student. I’m confident he will achieve a great result this summer.
From Emma
Peter is everything we could have hoped for in a maths tutor. With a critical 12+ exam looming, he was able to assess our child’s abilities quickly, and understand where there were gaps, and what was required to get skills where they need to be. He is methodical in his approach, and works in building blocks, to ensure that core knowledge and skills are in place, before moving on. In short, not just mindful of immediate needs, but future proofing which is definitely worth the investment. He is utterly focused, fully prepared and I am in no doubt using every minute of each session to get the most out of it for our child. He exudes confidence in his own abilities, but it is not misplaced, and more importantly understands the value of instilling this same self-belief and confidence in his tutee. He has an easy manner which has won our son over, not always a given! I would have no hesitation in recommending Peter as a maths tutor.
Thanks for your comments! It is a pleasure to tutor Nicholas. He is a very bright boy and is already making excellent progress with me.
From Kate
My son has just had his fifth lesson with Peter and he is finding them really productive. He says that he has really helped him to solidify his understanding of complex topics that he wasn't able to quite grasp fully in a normal classroom situation. He finds Peter friendly, approachable and easy to understand and we would definitely recommend him as a tutor.
Thanks for the positive feedback. I feel that Oliver has already improved significantly in a number of topics. I’m confident he will be successful in his forthcoming exams!
From Faith
Peter is very approachable, supportive and friendly therefore my son's maths lessons are enjoyable and interactive. Peter is very good at explaining things clearly with a methodical approach which ensures that the basics are solid before progressing onto more complex material. This approach means that progress is rapid and sustainable. My son's grades have already improved within a relatively short space of time but more importantly he has started to enjoy maths again.
Thanks for the positive informative feedback.
From Sarah
Jessie is very happy with her extra maths tuition and seems to have a lot more confidence coming up to her GCSEs. She now understands things she didn’t understand before. Great! Thank you.
Thanks for this positive feedback. Jessie has progressed significantly in only a few lessons! I’m sure she will achieve an excellent grade this summer.
From Alison
I have been having maths tuition with Peter for about a month now and have found it a very positive experience. We work at my speed and Peter explains things clearly in a way that I can understand. I have always struggled with maths but feel that I am making progress. I know that we have some way to go but I’m feeling much more confident about resitting my GCSE Maths exam next May.
It’s so nice to hear that you feel more confident Tom with your Maths. I know it’s only been a few lessons since we started but I can already see that you have progressed! I’m sure you will achieve a good grade next year.
From Mayumi
My son started Peter’s tuition in September. Peter’s lesson is well prepared /structured and my son found his lesson very useful at school. We will receive a school report soon and we are looking forward to seeing the good result in Math.
George is making very good progress and is now more confident with Algebra. I’m sure that he will continue to improve and will see positive test results soon! He is a pleasure to tutor. Thanks for the positive feedback.
From Debi
I'm delighted with the progress my daughter has made with Peter. She was struggling very significantly with maths but is now obtaining grades in class assessments which are towards the top end of her set. She herself has expressed that she feels much more confident now and realises the difference that expert one to one tuition has made.
Thanks for the positive feedback. I’m sure Hannah will fulfil her potential when she sits her GCSE Maths in the summer. She is a pleasure to tutor.
From Paul
Peter Thank you. Alex has settled down well, is enthusiastic and looks forward to the tutor session. Regards Paul
Alex has learnt lots of new techniques and is already making good progress! I'm confident that he will achieve exam success next year.
From Simone
Peter was a great at encouraging my son to be the best he could. He also shared some great techniques to get a very good result for GCSE! Peter knew exactly what to teach him and explained the problems very well.
Thanks for the positive feedback. I enjoyed tutoring Saxon and I'm so pleased he achieved his potential!
From Andrea
Met with Peter for the first time yesterday. Made us feel at ease. Explained the way he worked and gave an overview of the techniques and processes that he uses to support learning and track his students. Positive initial experience!
Thanks for the positive feedback. I look forward to tutoring your son.

Well done on achieving level 7 Lois. I'm also pleased to hear that you will be studying A-level Maths. I wish you continued good luck!
From Linda
Phoebe really enjoys her tuition with Peter and is very positive about the weekly sessions. Phoebe says that Peter has a knack of explaining concepts that make sense to her and she feels he tailors his explanations to suit her learning style. Even though Phoebe's session is on a Friday evening after a week of school, she is always keen and engaged which says volumes about Peter's ability.
We have no hesitation whatsoever recommending Peter for maths tuition.
An excellent exam result Phoebe, level 8! You should be so proud of yourself on what you have achieved. It was a pleasure to tutor you. Good luck with your A levels.
From Rukshana

Thanks to Peter, my year 8 daughter has gained confidence in maths in just a few sessions and especially likes his tips on tackling the more complex questions.
From Matthew
Peter has tutored me just over a month and I would highly recommend him. He's helped me work through problems and the areas I have been struggling with. He is a very patient tutor, who knows the GCSE syllabus very well and has been able to identify the ares I need help with. I would say he has really built my confidence and is a massive help to me.
From Chris
Peter has been fantastic for my son Louis. He is experienced and knows the syllabus really well. He made a prompt assessment of my sons's abilities and weaknesses and he has improved his confidence and knowledge. A really impressive teacher and a very approachable guy.
