Sarah is literally a godsend and I would encourage anyone needing maths tuition to look no further!
My son has the capacity to do much better than he was doing, but he lacks confidence (and focus sometimes!). Sarah was able to draw him out of himself from the very first lesson they had together and in a very short space of time he's gone from being downright morose at the thought of maths of any sort to actually believing he can have a go. I can't stress how significant a step this is for him - and it's thanks entirely to Sarah.
If you want someone dedicated, professional, diligent, and brilliant at engaging at the student's level, then that's what you'll get with Sarah. She genuinely cares about bringing out the best in her students and encouraging them to try - it's a testament to her talent that she manages to do this whilst maintaining a safe space for them in which they feel empowered to thrive - and also to get things wrong without censure.
Thanks so much, Sarah.
Thank you :-)
From MARJORIE
Sarah is an amazing tutor. She helped my son to progress and get prepared for his exam. My son feels more confident in maths today. Sarah is also good at keeping the parents informed of the progress and the homework given. I highly recommend her as Maths tutor.
Thank you for your kind words, look forward to hearing the results.
From Greer
I’m so thrilled to see a GCSE pass today for my daughter who was and is a maths ‘hater’. My daughter has always struggled with it as a subject and as such ignored it (hoped it would go away!) and was adamant it was impossible. I can’t thank Sarah enough for putting up with her and the down to earth, no nonsense support. Sarah always had high expectations of my daughter’s capabilities, pushed through the negativity and her resistance to the help and really just made a difference. I can’t recommend her highly enough. My daughter is jumping around today - so happy to have received her pass and even said ‘I realise I couldn’t have done this without Sarah’. Thank you!!!
Thank you
From Ruby
So far so good. Sarah has been great with her communication and my daughter already feels like she is learning something far easier than from school so I have a great deal of faith in her helping Ruby do much better in her GCSES. I also love the fact that she gives a report after the initial meeting which is very encouraging.
Thank you for your feedback
From Milan
Sarah has been tutoring my daughter for the last 3 years and she has taken her from somebody who dreaded maths and had no confidence in her ability and transformed her into a Student that is top of her class and more importantly somebody who loves maths. Sarah is patient and takes complex maths and explains it in a simple and logical fashion. Sarah really cares about her student and over the 3 years I have seen her go above and beyond to ensure my daughter achieves to the best of her ability in all of the maths tests she has sat. A true Proffesional who has not missed a lesson in 3 years with my daughter, she has become a part of my daughters educational life. I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough.
Thank you for your kind comments.
From Rasha
Sarah has been an excellent tutor. Her sessions are structured. She usually identifies areas that require improvement during the session, explains the work then provides resources accordingly. Most importantly, she is a nice person and makes students feel at ease during the lesson. My daughter really benefited from these sessions. Highly recommended!
Thank you
From Hebah
On my behalf, I'd say Sara's tutoring has improved my son's mathematical ability to understand as well as solve any questions I give him. I recommend her for her great teaching abilities and capability to teach the unteachable. She has changes my son's way of seeing math and I am grateful. He achieved more than I expected in his math test.
Thank you for your kind comments
From Gloria
Sarah has been an exceptional teacher for our 13 year old. She really did take notice of his needs. She set the pace correctly and gave him the right level of work and confidence in his ability. Her support to help him succeed was in excess of our expectation. I would use her again and highly recommend her. As a former Head Teacher, with an outstanding school, I know a good teacher when I see one.
Thank you
From Justine
My daughter really enjoyed her lessons with Sarah and we are thrilled that she achieved a grade 8 in her GCSE which she would have struggled to do without her help. Sarah helped her gain so much confidence which was recognised by her maths teacher at school as she showed more engagement and understanding. Thank you Sarah
Thank you
From Adrian
We really appreciate all Sarah did, she made herself available at short notice and was professional in her approach, she quickly identified the weaknesses. she crammed a lot in and built Harriets confidence taking her from a 3/4 to a 5. thank you Sarah
Thank you
From David Jordan
For the past six years I have struggled to achieve my Grade C/4 in Mathematics GCSE. My confidence was greatly knocked and I had no faith, when I was diagnosed with Dyscalculia I felt I was ready to face Maths again but needed to find the correct tutor who was able to guide me through my struggles. Sarah was the first tutor that caught my eye. Her kindness, support and simple way of breaking down topics allowed me to develop my confidence to sit my Maths GCSE. As a result, I have managed to pass my Maths GCSE and achieve my Grade 4. I cannot thank or recommend Sarah enough, she is patient, organised and helps you build the confidence to get where you need to be.
Thank you, good luck with your PGCE
From Jane
Sarah has supported 2 of my children in passing their maths GCSE. F2F initially she immediately recognised the different support each needed. Moving on line the focus and patience Sarah provided going over the topics being covered at school that week has been invaluable, and both were happy to have these weekly sessions with her.
Thank you
From Luke
Sarah was very patient with me as I really struggled with Maths and have done all my life. But she kept helping me over the course of our lessons and when I opened my results this morning I got the surprise of my life when I had passed. I would highly recommend her.
Thank you, good luck with your future studies
From Maria
Sarah really helped my son with his year 10 ppe’s. He felt that Sarah explained things really well and covered a lot in 1 hour. He felt much more confident going into his exams thanks to Sarah’s help. I would definitely recommend and have done to friends.
Thank you
From Gayle
Would highly recommend Sarah, fantastic tutor. My daughter had been struggling with maths and with Sarah‘s help she achieved great results, provided continuous support throughout, excellent tutor.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
From Sarah
Had 2 sessions covered a lot explained problems well good value for the amount done very professional .
Thank you
From Yana
Hi everyone, Our daughter had a knowledge gap, as she studied abroad, not following English National Curriculum, for 2 years. Since she started taking Sarah’s lessons less than a year ago, her confidence grew, results at school improved and ultimately, she got places in all independent competitive schools in Berkshire/ Oxfordshire (13+ entry), we applied for, including one of the top 5 schools for girls in the country. We are very grateful! Sarah, thanks so much!
Thank you
From Mala
Really quick response, look forward for my son learning and excelling…
Thank you
From KiKi
Sarah provided excellent support and coaching for our daughter helping her to gain her confidence and to bridge the gap in her maths studies.
The support ranged from normal online lessons, targeted focus on our daughter’s key areas of need and loads of test questions and papers to prepare our daughter to re-take her Maths GCSE.
This paid off immensely with our daughter achieving the highest possible for her retake of a grade 5 from her original grade 3.
Thank you Sarah for all you’ve done. We highly recommend Sarah for anyone looking for an excellent online tutor in Maths.
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. Excellent result :-)
From Vanessa

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback :-)

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review :-)
From Olevia
Sarah was excellent… very understanding and helpful and I could tell my daughter felt very comfortable on the first review/session!
Thank you
From JAne
Sarah worked brilliantly on line with my year 7 grandson through lockdown. She takes care to explain things carefully and is patient and understanding. She clearly knows her stuff and is right up to date with exam demands. Grandson enjoyed his sessions and we’ll be back for another block of them. I highly recommend.
Thank you for leaving a review :-)
From Iris
Sarah is an amazing teacher, she helped me a lot. She was patient and calm; she didn't mind explaining it to me more than once when i didn't understand how certain things work. Sarah was always smiling and has such a pleasant personality which made my experience with her even more pleasant and it was much easier. Thank you so much for all you have done for me Sarah because of you I passed my maths.
Thank you for leaving a review, all the best for the future :-)
From Tim
Sarah is probably the most professional and effective tutor I have worked with to-date. I wanted GCSE Maths tutoring for a 14-year old. Sarah has been a wonderful find. The lessons are conducted over Skype (even pre-pandemic) which is so convenient. There is no need to organise transport & times can be flexed when absolutely necessary. Sarah's approach & resources are incredibly professional and the progress made very strong. The student feels so much more confident with their school work. This has already been a relatively long-standing relationship and I imagine that this will continue for the forseeable future.
Thank you for the feedback, the progress made to date has been impressive.
From Lucy
Sarah has just been tutoring our 13 year old daughter for the last few weeks but we have alreadny been impressed by the impact she has had. She is very clear and methodical and our daughrer said she has remembered why she enjoyed learning!
Oh that’s lovely to hear, thank you for leaving feedback.
From Ian
My daughter is having very positive online learning experience with Sarah, she is helpful and encouraging while also knowing the expected mathematics standards according to the school year. Communication with Sarah has been straightforward. I am very pleased that we contacted Sarah as a tutor for our daughter, after reading her reviews, and I am happy to recommend her.
Thank you for your feedback :-)
From Beverley
Sarah is a professional and excellent teacher and my son is made to feel confident to ask or question any equations he does not understand or would like to focus on. Hence, this makes her a wonderful teacher and I have asked that she continue to teach whilst he is at secondary school.
Thank you for your feedback :-)
From Tracie
Sarah tutors my twin daughters who both have serious struggle with Maths and have serious confidence issues. Sarah has been great with them and really spends the time to help them understand the basics whilst also giving them positive feedback.
We are hoping to see the relationship and skill and ability grow and for the girls to start to enjoy Math.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review
From Sophie
Very good teaching, clearly explained, making it easy to understand. Work is challenging, but not too hard or easy. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback :-)
From Saskia
My daughter has only had 2 lessons so far but is already reaping the benefits
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback :-)
From Jordan
Sarah is extremely professional, helpful and knowledgable. I received a D at gcse when I was in school over 12 years ago. Taking my exams again was extremely difficult but Sarah guided me along the whole way and was so patient. I received an A in my IGCSE maths exam and I know this would not have been possible without her help.
Pleasure working with you, thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
From Velma
Miss Sarah is an excellent math tutor, she pays great attention to her student's and makes sure that they understand before allowing them to continue. She sets a lot of homework's so that her students can have a lot of practice to make sure that that knowledge stays with them. She has a flexible time table and she was always on time to every lesson.
Many thanks for the feedback :-)
From Leigh
Really super tutor. Extremely helpful, accommodating and reliable. My daughter is very happy with her teaching style and has improved considerably under Sarah’s guidance. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review :-)
From Helen
Our son has only had a few lessons but we can already see a big improvement in his confidence and his maths skills. Sarah is very friendly and professional
Thank you Helen for taking the time to leave a review
From Rabia
Thanks to Sarah my daughter passed her maths GCSE after getting 2/3 grades all year round. She went up 2 grades in a space of 4 months. My daughter found her very helpful and professional, without Sarah my daughter would of definitely not had the confidence to pass her maths. Thank you very much for your help and support Sarah !!
Thank you for leaving feedback
From Anne
My daughter started having tuition with Sarah at the beginning of Y11 in preparation for her GCSE’s. Maths had been a subject that she had lacked confidence with for a couple of years and within a short period of time that she started tuition with Sarah we could see how much more confident she was becoming and that she had a better understanding of maths problems. My daughter received her GCSE results last week and she is delighted with her maths result (moving up 3 grades from a previous mock exam). Without Sarah’s help, support and encouragement this wouldn’t have been possible. I would highly recommend Sarah.
Thanks Anne for taking the time to leave feedback, all the best, Sarah
From natalie
Sarah is a friendly, strong and dedicated teacher. She helped our daughter achieve her best in GCSE maths this year - moving her up two levels. Her teaching was consistent and personalised to the areas that she needed support in. The improvement was really remarkable. I'd highly recommend Sarah.
Thank you Natalie, all the best for the future :-)
From Canan
Excellent, very helpful.
Thank you
From Jack
Sarah tutored me from November to March and aided my maths Sats score improve from 520-600. During this time Sarah was very diligent and described problems in a easy to comprehend manner. I found working with Sarah improved my confidence with Maths and made me want to continue to improve in the future. I would recommend her to anyone wishing to make improvements and do it in a friendly helpful environment!
Thanks Jack, all the best for your future journey across the pond :-)
From Alistair
My daughter was really struggling with getting to grips with maths. The way that Sarah has taught her is great. She says every time “I just get that bit now”. Many thanks
Lovely to hear, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback.
From Roy
Hi Sarah, just in case this feedback makes a difference in the platform, my feedback on you is 5 stars :)
Many thanks
From Colette
Sarah has a very pragmatic approach to her lessons. Sarah is on time, efficient and squeezes every inch of time into my daughters sessions. My daughter believes that she cannot do maths but Sarah is showing her otherwise. Sarah is the best tutor I have fond on this website. I absolutely believe, and more importantly so does my daughter that she will achieve a decent GSCE if she continues weekly sessions with Sarah during term time and more then weekly during the holidays. Sarah is a real find!
Thank you Colette for your kind words. I have every confidence that we'll all be happy on results day :-)
From Darren
Sarah was fantastic with our son, he had always found maths challenging and for me the subject was his nemesis.
Sarah managed to make him feel relaxed and able to finally do maths! He got on very well with Sarah and commented that she made him feel confident in the subject. She was always on hand to help, flexible with her lessons, understanding and very competent.
I would very much recommend Sarah, I might take a refresher course myself!!
Thank you for your kind words :-)
From Miranda
Sarah is a very competent friendly tutor and has helped my daughter to develop knowledge and understanding which in turn has improved her confidence. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a maths tutor.
Thank you
From Stuart
Sarah is a very polite and an excellent tutor.
From Sharon
Sarah is a first class maths tutor. Within only a few months with Sarah my sons confidence with maths has vastly improved and he has gone from struggling to getting top marks in his class by a country mile in a recent maths paper. This is down to Sarah and her excellent teaching methods and also the fact that she has such an approachable friendly manner with my son. We have high hopes for his GCSE results now and best of all Harry says he loves maths now again down to Sarahs help. Thank you a Sarah.
Thank you, I have high hopes too and I know Harry will work hard over the next few months :-)
From Gina
Sarah has certainly been in touch and has already been of great help to Emma this weekend in her first lesson. I would highly recommend her for her professional approach and teaching style.
Thank you, look forward to working with Emma on the higher GCSE material.
From Jackie
Hi Sarah. There simply aren't enough thank yous for all you patience!!. Thank you so much for all your time and all the extra effort you went to creating papers. It's hard work going back in the classroom after so long and I'm so grateful. Your rating should be a 10, you have been amazing so kind and supportive.
Thank you Jackie, all the best for the future :-)
From Dave
Qick response and professional. Prepared well and helped my daughter gain confidence with algebra in first lesson. Thanks Sarah.
Thank you
From Rachel
Many thanks for your time, even though it was short! As discussed I feel I need more one on one assistance which due to your commitments you cannot provide. Thanks
Thank you for your feedback.
From Kristie
Sarah has been absolutely fantastic with my son who recently failed his gcse maths. Maths was not his favourite subject but since Sarah came on board what a difference! My son has recently re taken his maths exam. His preparation has been done with care and his confidence level is so much higher with a deeper understanding of the subject. Sarah keeps motivation high with well prepared sessions and structured work allocated each week for own learning. This is always reviewed and marked at the beginning of each session. Thank you so much Sarah!
Thank you for your kind words.
From Vanessa
Thank you so much for helping me achieve my C grade in Maths, without you I wouldn't know how I would be able to pass. The lessons have been intense, and hard for me, as I have had to do my other A levels alongside with my GCSE Maths, but overall it was worth the push and work we did in our lessons. You are a brilliant teacher. Thank you again for teaching me.
Thank you, have a fantastic time at university :-)
From Tricia
Sarah's online tutorials have been a great option for my daughter. She is calm and patient, and she zeroes in on where the gaps in understanding are. Sarah sets homework every time, which allows my daughter to really dig in and practice the skills. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
Thank you :-)
From Michelle
My daughter found the tuition very helpful. She felt very relaxed and comfortable during tuition sessions. Homework was given and Sarah was available to contact at other times if needed. Highly recommend
Thank you :-)
From Lisa
Sarah was a fantastic tutor for our daughter who helped give her so much more confidence in Maths. I was a bit doubtful initially with it being on skype but have to say there was never a problem. Sarah was always there for Daniella. She gave Daniella homework and always marked it, and went through the ones she struggled with together in the next lesson. Our daughter received her GCSE results yesterday and with the help from Sarah, she passed! I would highly recommend Sarah and will call upon her again with our next daughter.
Thank you :-)
From Clodagh
Sarah is a lovely person, very calm and organised. Took me in on short notice and she made sure we had covered all the important modules that were predicted to come up. I would highly recommend Sarah as a tutor.
Thank you Clodagh, have a great summer
From Rajan
Thank you
From Pierre
Sarah was reliable and consistent in her tuition of Pierre. He was struggling with specific topics leading up to his GCSEs and she demystified them for him brilliantly. He was initially reluctant to do online tuition but after the second session he told me he was finding it incredibly helpful. I would recommend Sarah
Thank you
From Anna
Sarah is very organised, efficient & punctual . Our son has said his lessons with Sarah have really helped him so far & that he learns a lot from each lesson We were worried about on line tutoring but it's really working well
Thank you :-)
From Martin
Excellent teacher. Very professional. So pleased we've found Sarah.
Thank you Martin :-)
From Ruth
My daughter is in Year 11 and has been receiving tutoring for her GCSE's from Sarah over the last 3 months. My daughter has benefitted from Sarah's approach. She doesn't rush through the topics, but takes the time to go at a slower pace for my daughter to understand how to resolve a maths problem.
On the last set of mock exams that were done in February 2017 she has gone from a 'C' grade to an 'A' grade.
Thank you Sarah for all you help and encouragement.
Many thanks, fantastic progress :-)
From Aisha
Haaris is very pleased with the online lessons so far, he appreciates the fact that no time gets wasted in travelling especially with his exams coming up around the corner. Sarah explains maths in a very systematic manner and makes sure Haaris keeps his thinking cap on throughout the lesson. He stays thoroughly engaged during the lesson and is always keen to attend the next one because he knows how much he is going to learn from Sarah.We truly hope he gets a good grade in his GCSE and it'll be all down to Sarah! highly recommended.
Thank you Aisha, I'm sure Haaris will get a good grade with the continued hard work :-)
From Jonida
I am extremely happy with Sarah, she is an excellent teacher! Her lessons are well organised, she has a great method of teaching. My daughter's confidence has grown massively since she started the lessons and her knowledge has as well. Many thanks Sarah!
Thank you for your feedback :-)
From Alex
Great tutor. Very professional, but also very friendly. Would recommend Sarah for anyone who really needs that extra push to get them the grades they need!
Thanks Alex, all the best for the future
From David
Very helpful and professional. Great tutor.
Thank you
From Alison
Excellent teaching and very helpful website
Thanks
From Emma
Sarah is very organised and plans the lessons well (and in advance). My daughter said she has a good balance between self-direction and direct teaching and she supplies good resources. Only had 2 lessons so far, but pleased with the help received to date.
Thanks, looking forward to the next 3 months :-)
From Joanne
Very pleased with the work that Sarah is doing my daughter. Her confidence is growing every week and she is enjoying maths a lot more. Very informal one to one learning with great results so far.
I'm sure we'll see great results in the summer :-)
From Elka
We have had a very positive experience with Sarah. We originally made contact as my Son, needed some fine tuning with his Maths, as he already had a good understanding. He has just taken the Intermediate exam and acheived top marks which I am sure has a lot to do with Sarah's tutoring and raising his confidence levels. We have booked in for another lot of sessions with the Higher paper coming up.
Very pleased with all the conpleted work in the run up to the November exams. Look forward to covering the higher material ready for May/June. :-)
From Karen
Would highly recommended Sarah. After only a few lessons my daughter has a better understanding and is enjoying maths for the first time.!. Thank you
That's lovely to hear :-)
From Josip
Our daughter Ema has had three sessions with Sarah so far and her knowledge and confidence has already increased. She was patient with our daughter and took time and care in preparation for her lessons as well as during them. Not only Sarah is highly professional, she is also friendly and a great tutor.
Thank you, Ema is very enthusiastic which is lovely :-)
From Karen
My daughter has been having tuition with Sarah for a few months now. Within that short period of time she has built my daughters confidence no end. My daughter feels happy and relaxed during her sessions and has found Sarah very approachable and always happy to help either in the sessions or via email. I would recommend Sarah it anyone seeking help with any area of maths.
Thank you, Lucy is doing really well :-)
From Eloise
We are early into our sessions with Sarah but so far we are very impressed. Sarah is patient and kind and helps my daughter understand things that she has previously found quite tricky. Our daughter lacked confidence in her ability with Maths and Sarah has helped her confidence to grow.
Thank you
From Dorinda
Maths tutoring - very positive experience so far, professional and friendly.
Thank you
From Helen
My daughter has struggled consistently with Math from an early age and we had been told she probably has a form of dyscalculia. Sarah is really turning things around for her - Megan is starting to understand and actually enjoy Math for the first time. Sarah is hugely supportive and puts her students at ease immediately. Megan is now gaining confidence with each session and is starting to believe- for the first time - that she will actually be able to pass her IGCSE Math next year!
Thanks, Helen. I'm enjoying working with Megan :-)
From James
Sarah has recently started to tutor my 9 year old son. Its fair to say that Maths is not his favourite subject, however Sarah has managed to engage with him and make it fun. I can see that his confidence and ability in the subject has improved since he has been tutored by Sarah. Now he is much more willing to take on maths questions whereas previously he would have struggled or have been quick to give up.
Thank you
From Jackie
Sarah is an excellent teacher & I would highly recommend her teaching. She is well organised and uses different methods to teach concepts to her pupils, including visual cues.
Thanks Jackie
From Jacqui
Our son has had his first maths lesson with Sarah. She had actually taught him previously which is great.
From Millie
Very happy with Sarah so far !
From Janet
Sarah is professional, competent and conscientious.
From Michelle
Really pleased at how well Justin is doing after only 2 lessons with Sarah.He recently had a maths test at school and achieved his best marks so far.
That's great news, well done Justin!
