What Parents & Students Say

My daughter got a grade 5 in her mock maths exams, and was worried about not meeting the requirements for sixth form. Weekly lessons with Huw greatly increased her confidence and gave her tools for tackling the exams more systematically. She went on to get a grade 7 at GCSE and secured her choice of sixth form.

Hi Huw We are fine, thank you. I hope you are well too. Matt did very, very well — 4xA*. We are very proud of him. Thanks for your support. Thank you again for everything you've done — it has genuinely helped me a lot over the years. Magda 15.08.26

Huw has been a great GCSE Maths tutor for our son. He is patient, encouraging and explains things clearly, helping to build both confidence and understanding. We would highly recommend Huw! Claire 20.08.26
Parent of Year 11 Maths student, grade 8 achieved
My son Sam had weekly online sessions with Huw for around four months leading up to his GCSE exams. Sam wanted support to improve his mock result in Biology (grade 4). Sam really enjoyed his sessions with Huw, and found Huw's style of teaching extremely helpful. With Huw's help Sam was thrilled to get a grade 8 in his final exams! Sam found Huw to be very good at explaining points and processes that he had missed understanding in class. He found him patient and liked how he used the iPad for teaching. Sam found it particularly helpful going through past papers to learn question styles and techniques for answering them. Clare 26.08.26

Euan got a B, can you believe it, it was actually his best grade! I am so grateful for your help over the years. Sophie 16.08.26
Parent of Year 13 student, A Level Biology
Huw tutored our daughter for GCSE Biology. We were a bit nervous about finding someone online but Huw put those fears to rest and we had a great experience. Right from the start, he was professional and reliable, providing all his relevant certificates and DBS check promptly and without question. He was open and honest in his communication and we really appreciated this. His interactive teaching software made online lessons easy to follow, and he built a wonderful rapport with my daughter despite her being quite shy and introverted. She was really happy to have her lessons with Huw, her grade was much improved, and she was delighted with the result. We couldn't have asked for more. Maria 20.08.26

Beth got a 9 in Chemistry and Biology and an 8 in Maths. She has secured her place at Pates Sixth form. Thank you so much for your support through her final year - with the school strikes it was invaluable. Kate 23.08.26

Huw has tutored my son in the lead up to his GCSE Maths and his sessions have hugely increased my son's confidence and enjoyment of maths. He says Huw explains concepts clearly and is encouraging. My son has decided to do Maths A Level which I am not sure he would have done without Huw's tutoring. We would highly recommend. Hannah 8.06.25
Parent of Year 11 student, GCSE Maths
Huw has been a great fit for our son’s GCSE needs, has quickly raised his confidence and ability in targeted areas and is always punctual, reliable and gets straight into the valuable exam-focused sessions. Highly recommended by us and our son. Steve 22.02.25
Parent of Year 11 student, GCSE Maths
Huw is very knowledgeable about biology and comes to lessons prepared and punctual. My son feels reassured that he understands his curriculum well and both explains concepts well until he understands them but also has helped him with exam questions. How makes the topics so engaging that he leaves my son looking forward to the next lesson. We are very happy with the tuition received so far and my son is looking forward to completing his igcse Biology with Huw’s support. We would recommend Huw. Samia 24.12.24
Parent of Year 10 student, GCSE Biology
Huw is tutoring my daughter in A level biology. Anna thinks he’s a fantastic tutor as he explains the concepts in a really logical, structured way that she understands and then they spend a lot of time doing exam practice questions to solidify the learning. Her confidence has increased enormously in just a few lessons. Kate 17.11.24
Parent of Year 13 student, A level Biology
Huw tutored our son in maths for about 18 months leading up to his GCSEs. Our son was very much between tiers and lacking in confidence in the beginning, but with Huw's support he achieved the grade he was hoping for! Huw was always happy to tailor the sessions to the topics our son needed to be working on and Huw's calm, friendly and patient manner really allowed our son to get the most out of the time. Huw was extremely flexible in how he worked and although most sessions were face to face, when needed we were able to switch to online learning, which was much appreciated. Carol 22.09.24
Parent of Year 11 student, GCSE Maths
Huw is a fantastic tutor. I've been learning online with him for several weeks now, and my knowledge base has increased significantly since beginning. He explains topics in a style I understand, and utilises board specifications and past paper questions in context with what I've learned/am learning. This helps with applying my knowledge as we go along. Highly recommend. Sophie 15.08.24
Year 12 student, A Level Biology
Huw has been extremely helpful in supporting our daughter with her Biology A level. He has been reliable, helpful and prompt in his communications with me and our daughter says he has been kind and patient in lessons and always happy to go over things if she doesn't understand them first time round. We're very grateful for his input. Zoe 3.06.24
Parent of Year 12 student, A level Biology
I was looking for someone to help boost my son's confidence who was between GCSE maths tiers. Huw has been extremely supportive, given clear explanations, tried lots methods to help recall and tailored sessions to whatever topic was required. Friendly, patient and flexible to our needs. Michelle 2.06.24
Parent of Year 11 student, GCSE Maths
My son started GCSE maths tutoring with Huw just Dec 2022 after a disappointing mock grade. Huw has always been very kind, calm and reassuring. He explains ideas and strategies clearly. Huw asked about his weakness and prioritised these as well as identifying areas himself. Each week they worked through exam papers. Huw increased my son's confidence no end. The end result is a grade 7. Thank you VERY much. Amy 24.08.23

I wanted to thank you for your help in tutoring my nephew in biology. As a Ukrainian refugee struggling with the subject in Sixth Form college, he was able to make very good progress under your guidance. He has gone from being frustrated and overwhelmed to feeling confident and engaged in the subject, and his grades have improved. Highly recommended! Excellent tutor! Olga 05.04.23
Parent of Year 12 student, A level Biology
Our son has just started with Huw. Huw really knows his subject matter - we are covering both Chemistry and Biology A levels. It is really helping with my son's confidence and understanding of the complex topics. Huw clearly has a very strong knowledge and is good at conveying this and helping my son in his approach to exam questions, for example, and specific topics that need some focus. The interactive white board approach also helps with the sessions. Tom 29.01.23

My daughter has now had several lessons with Huw and she finds them very helpful. He explains topics really well, provides her with supporting notes and he is also helping her improve her exam answering technique. We would highly recommend Huw.   Natasha 31.01.18

I am so delighted to have found Huw. He has been excellent in teaching A2 Biology topics and has tailored each session to exactly what was required. He is extremely knowledgeable and great at explaining. He also ensures the lesson has been grasped thoroughly by practising and referring to exam questions. Kathryn 10.09.17

Huw is helping us with A level Biology. He explains the topics very clearly and concisely, and in an intelligible form. He knows the scope of the A level syllabus very well, and is friendly and approachable to study with. He understands what the examiners are looking for and is also happy to explain the subject in its wider context. We have been very pleased with Huw's help. Alison 03.03.14
Parent of Year 13 student, A level Biology
Huw is tutoring our son in A Level Biology and we are very pleased with the support he is providing. Always punctual and reliable, Huw has tailored the weekly sessions to our son's specific requirements.
