SMA has been offering tutoring to our children for several years and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this service. The tutoring sessions were engaging and provided lots of opportunities for my children to progress well in both English language & literature, particularly in areas such as comprehension, poetry and also more in depth texts such as The Inspector Calls. These sessions were tailored to my childrens individual requirements and Scott has armed them with the skills to apply these techniques when it comes to exam preparation. Scott is very professional, reliable and patient and it is rare to find tutors like this. More...

Working with SMA makes learning manageable with a seamless approach. Myself and two other family members have interacted with SMA for the last two years. It’s certainly enhanced our knowledge and intelligence. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the services SMA offer. More...

SMA has been offering amazing tutoring for our daughter equipping her with the key skills required to successfully pass her Common Entrance exam for one of the Clarendon Schools. Whilst the tutoring sessions were entirely online, Scott’s unique approach has been engaging and tailored to our daughter’s ability and progress which was very effective. His personal touch and aptitude to give positive and constructive feedback and support enabled our daughter to apply herself to the best of her potential which was reflected in her outstanding results.
