James has been tutoring my 15 year old In preparation for his gcse exams, Lucas has found the 1:1 online sessions really helpful, he wouldn't have the confidence to say in a class of 30 if he didn't understand something, but with James he feels more able to admit if he's struggling with a topic. The weekly feedback I recieve from james is brilliant and ensures I'm kept in the loop about what they have been doing and links for Lucas to look at in preparation for the next session. I am very grateful for all the support James has given Lucas, he has a very easy going and approachable manner and this helped Lucas to relax and engage more confidently with the lessons. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend James to anyone looking for a reliable and consistent 1:1 maths tutor! More...

James has been tutoring my daughter who is in yr 8 for the past few weeks. His methodology of teaching has been a game changer and as a result my daughter is performing to the higher standard that she is capable of but was lacking the support that James is now providing. James is super responsive to any requests for example if my daughter has an upcoming maths test, he will cover the test topics as soon as he is informed or if she is struggling with a particular topic he will cover that topic immediately within the next lesson. His daily lesson feedbacks are one of the best I’ve experienced from past tutors- always provides parents with valuable detailed explanations post each lesson with extra worksheets to strengthen lesson contents. He is extremely accommodating as well for example if my daughter is unable to attend an upcoming lesson due to holidays etc he will always try to find an alternative date suitable to us to accommodate the missed lesson. I only wish I had found James sooner! Thank you for all the hard work you do with my daughter. More...

James has started tutoring both of my daughters who are in y9 and 11. They both feel very positive about the lessons saying how much easier they are finding topics because of James's calm and clear explanations. They both also commented on how quickly the 1-hour lessons pass by and how much they enjoy them. Thank you James for all of your effort and support! More...

James has been instrumental in increasing my daughter's confidence in her maths as well as raising her maths level. James provides positive feedback whilst equally encouraging her to try more challenging maths questions. Thank you James!

James has been teaching my 6 year old maths for a year. He is an excellent teacher who prepares well, identifies my son’s needs and addresses them promptly. My son finds the lessons with James “fun” and always looks forward to the lesson with James. What makes James extra special is that he has adapted his teaching to accommodate my son who, despite being 6 years old, is working at GCSE level. James manages to keep him focused, is imaginative in the way he presents GCSE maths to him and paces the lessons to accommodate S. S has made remarkable progress whilst having fun!!! I cannot praise James enough for his teaching methodology and maths expertise. More...

James has been tutoring my son who is neurodivergent and on the spectrum. He has has always been challenging to get to take interest in maths. James has established and maintained fantastic learning relationship with him. He is very patient and tolerant, he also acknowledges and validates the good work that my son does. He sends me updates and work that Jude could look into before the next session. He communicates and responds to my messages swiftly. I would recommend James to anyone looking for a maths tutor.

I would not hesitate to recommend James- he’s a brilliant maths tutor. He really helped my son and was kind and considerate of his additional learning needs. James is a very flexible in his approach and adapts the sessions to meet the needs of the student. I was a little worried about how on line tutoring would work but I didn’t need to worry! My son achieved 2 grades higher than predicted - there is no doubt that James was the reason for this! Thank you so much James! You’re a super star! More...

I cannot recommend James highly enough, not only does he tutor he has a way to extract confidence in the student which in turn builds belief in themselves, my daughter being such individual. Her lessons with James were not a chore but something she looked forward to. The final result, the grade she was aiming for. Thank you James! More...
